Hat: Slouch Hat

A wide brimmed felt hat, with a chin strap.

It is a survivor of the felt hats worn by eighteenth century armies.

The distinctive Australian slouch hat, sometimes called an Australian bush hat, has one side of the brim turned up or pinned to the side of the hat in order to allow a rifle to be slung over the shoulder.

Jack Kerouac wrote a poem called "I Had a Slouch Hat Too One Time."
