Hats Plus has been one of America’s leading hat shops since 1987.

Fresh from the Emerald Isle come the handsome County Tweed Ivy, Houndstooth Plaid Ivy, Irish Herringbone Gatsby and Herringbone Ivy Cap. Each cap is made of wool and features a satin lining.

The craftsmen and women at Borsalino offer up a very refined Doria Newsboy Paperboy. This Doria is made of a soft cashmere-wool blend  and is satin-lined for your comfort.

Store manager Tod Canon puts the finishing touch on the new Hats Plus wall of felt hats.

Hats Plus recently changed over its floor displays from straw and linen to fur felt and wool. The fedoras and caps are out in full force.

Best of all are the new models on display for the very first time. We now have 4 great new hats from Stetson: The Benchley, The Stratoliner, The Cary and The Inwood.

It is a handsome speckling of the many more new hats yet to arrive. Keep visiting online and in person to see more!

Shawn’s summer hat is the Stefano John, a stylin’ duckbill cap. He doesn’t beat about the bush either when describing why he likes it so much.

“It keeps my head sexy and cool,” he said.

If you want to keep your head sexy and cool, the Stefano John is the light-weight linen cap you need to check out.

If you’ve never seen it, it has everything a great baseball movie should. An unlikely hero looking for redemption, country folk adapting to city life, big money and corruption vs. honor and integrity, lust vs. love. Oh, and hats. Really well represented hats.

The Biltmore Ark is a teardrop crown fedora similar to one worn by Robert Redford in 'The Natural.'

The core of the story is about Roy Hobbs (Redford)—a rookie in his mid-30s looking for one last chance to break into the game. In his youth he was truly great until a mysterious and sexy assailant shot him and nearly destroyed his life. Now he’s back and playing for the worst team in baseball run by an honest manager/team co-owner and a greedy corrupt co-owner. Vying for his heart are a long lost true love (Close) and a smokin’ hot gold digger (Basinger) owned by the corrupt powers within the movie. The fate of the player, the team and the lovers boils down to one tense climatic playoff game.

Robert Duvall wears a Big Apple cap in grey tweed similar to this one in the 1984 hit "The Natural."

Aside from some early scenes set in the early to mid-1920s, the bulk of the film takes place in 1939. The two biggest hat wearers of the movie are Robert Redford and Robert Duvall, who plays a conniving sports writer named Max Mercy. In the ’20s, Duvall wears a large grey tweed Big Apple cap. In the ’30s he’s wearing several impeccable teardrop crown fedoras in primarily pearl grey and graphite grey. These are similar to our Selentino Sterling in silver and Stetson Downs in graphite.

Redford’s character is a Depression-era man who has spent his time living on the fringes of poverty. His brown fedora is dirty and well worn. The teardrop crown is broken-in and a little out of shape. The hat band is stained, presumably from sweat. As his baseball career improves, so does his hat. Careful observers will notice the nicer hat switching between a center-dent crown and a broken-in teardrop crown. No matter what hat he is wearing, the snap brim is usually down in the front and back. Similar hats at Hats Plus are the Churchill Capone and Biltmore Ark.

Redford’s worn-in hat is indicative of the great work done by the costume designer of the film. Most of the characters and extras have generally worn-in hats in various states of repair and disrepair, which is far more accurate than movies where everyone is wearing a shiny new hat. Most of the fur felt fedoras in this film are teardrop crowns, but some are center dent. You’ll also find extras wearing a lot of Panama hats and boaters or skimmers. It is summer in the film, after all.

My favorite bit player in the film is the team psychiatrist who continuously compares losing to diseases in an effort to motivate the team: “Losing is like a disease, worse than bubonic plague.” In fact, every time I’m force to listen to a motivational speaker, I usually snicker that line to whoever is seated next to me. I digress. This character in the film wears a straw optimo, in case you’re curious.

And there you have it. Now you’re all set for another season of baseball and stunning hats to wear to the game. What’s left?

Batter up! Or should that be hatter up?

This is just a part of our wall covered in all of the brand new linen caps by City Sport. Light weight and sharp looking, these are some of the best caps for summer.

We’ve just put up an entire wall full of their incredible new linen caps! Whether you prefer newsboy caps or ivies, it doesn’t matter. These handsome linen caps come in a huge variety of shapes, colors and sizes.

Extremely light weight with a mesh lining that helps the cap breathe, the City Sports will definitely help shade your melon while helpin’ you look cool. Some of these caps even come with stripe and plaid designs.

If you’re a traditional herringbone cap type, then you’ll love the new silk herringbone ivy cap. It too is light-weight with a mesh lining; it just maintains a more classic look.

Get a closer look at these caps by visiting our store in Chicago or Hats Plus online.

Part of the Gruppo Doria line, both the 8/4 newsboy cap and the duckbill cap are made from the softest leather we’ve ever felt on a hat. The leather is rich, supple and extremely lightweight. Each cap is satin lined and complete with a soft cloth sweat band. These caps also come in fitted sizes to maximize your comfort. The 8/4 is a rounder design that measures 11 1/2 inches across its widest point. The duckbill has a bit of an 8-panel look, but it tappers more to a point at the front of the cap. It measures 10 1/4 inches across its widest point.

The Doria duckbill cap also comes in a sensually soft nylon that is gold with a dark blue and red houndstooth design. This Borsalino cap also is satin lined with a cloth sweatband. It is 10 inches across at its widest point.

It is not as easy as it might sound.

A hat can speak volumes about you, and it is most important to find the styles that speak to you. We might recommend a wider brim for people with larger noggins and shorter brimmed hats for folks with less pronounced craniums, but none of that advice means anything if you envision yourself in specific style. We aren’t going to push a cowboy hat on a hipster or a top hat on a paperboy.

Hat sizes aren’t measured in traditional inches. Clearly, a size 7 ¼ hat doesn’t mean the circumference of your head is 7 ¼ inches.

To figure out your hat size, get a tape measure. As a hat should rest about a finger’s width above your ear, wrap the tape measure evenly around your head at that level. (Use a mirror to make sure you take an even measurement.) Then check out our handy-dandy hat-size converter below. See what your measurement in inches becomes in hat sizes.

A nicely fitted hat should rest gently above your brow, neither pinching or squeezing your head nor sliding down to your ears.

If you already know that your head is particularly oblong or round, our friendly staff can gently adjust your new hat to better fit you.

Just remember, measuring isn’t an exact science. Like shoes, not every brand measures exactly the same fit. However, following these guidelines should get you pretty close. The best way to get a true fit is to try on your new hat.

Use a tape measure to learn the size of your head and use that measurement to find your proper hat size.
