Do you know why the tall hats went out of fashion? Because you can’t drive a car wearing one. That did in the Mexican sugar loaf hats, which I always thought were cool.Personally I love the hat - looks like a Stetson as issued to the Canadian mounted troops who served in the Boer War.
The closest to it today would, I guess, be the Stetson Campaign or Ranger hat, or perhaps the “Lemon Squeezer” worn by some New Zealand forces?
