Louis Vuitton had the bucket hat plastered all over their runway showcase. While the above look may not be completely wearable, it sure gives inspiration for every guy looking to go a little nautical this season. On a casual spring day, try a polo or lightweight tee, a cardigan, khaki shorts, and a sleek bucket hat much like this one.
Another great look from the creative minds of LV. We love the seaside/resortwear feel, which is perfect for spring. Add some variety to an otherwise monotone look by sporting a button-up chambray shirt with your chino shorts, boat shoes, and cap. This bucket hat is a close match!
The bucket hat was the topper of choice in E. Tautz's Spring 2013 Menswear Collection. We like this version of the modern suit paired with shorts, sandals, and a hat. If you're feeling too stuffy on top, unbotton the blazer, lose the tie, and roll up the sleeves for a look that's a little more lowkey. Try this bucket hat for the complete look.
Another look from E. Tautz's runway show, this one calls for a round of golf, a trip to the country club bar, or a weekend at the Hamptons. Try a pair of pastel-colored shorts, a sweater, oxfords, and button-down -- and if you're feeling extra bold, match your bucket hat to your shorts. For this look, try our Hamptons bucket hat, which comes in a variety of colors with printed linings.
Interested in something a little less casual? This ultra-versatile trend is easily dressed up! We love the idea of pairing a bucket hat like this one with a lightweight sweater, jeans or slacks, loafers, and contrasting socks for chillier spring days.
Are you an outdoorsy type? We love mixing and matching camouflage by layering the print in various shades and sizes. For a less bold approach, try camo shorts, a plain colored vest, and a cargo jacket with this camo-green Bailey of Hollywood.
Between meetings, the bucket hat is easy to throw on with your typical office gear. Keep it professional and simple with a pair of khakis, a jacket, sweater vest, button-down, and a cotton bucket hat. It'll help keep the sun out of your eyes, too.
Forget the typical baseball cap or trilby this season, and add a bucket hat to your cap collection stat!
