Why are Hats Good Gifts for Father’s Day?
Yes. Hats are the best Father’s Day gift, and this is why:
- Hats don’t shame dad bods. It will fit him like a glove and won’t injure his ego.
- Hats discreetly cover vanishing hairlines. In a hat, you are returning him to his younger glory days when his hair was full, and he didn’t have to worry about strategic styling.
- Hats are always in fashion. Give a gift that will survive the latest trend, and you can ensure your dad looks great.
- Dads love hats. Show us a dad that doesn’t love a new hat. Seriously. They love them. It’s like an unspoken man rule: must love hats.
- Hats won’t break your Father’s Day gift budget. Sure, he would probably love a new car, but a hat fits more easily into your gift budget. You can even get a really nice hat, and it still won’t break your budget.
Okay. We’ve sufficiently covered the why. Let’s get to the list.

Comment
I discovered AHM a few years ago enroute home to So Cal from an Arizona trip. While in Jerome, I went to a leather shop when I found an attractive hat that was too tight (it was a XXL). The shop owner told me he had a XXL, and I left with my beloved Crusher. Since then, I have purchased ten other hats with the similar style, both in leather and mesh. I have lost track of the number of times I been told, “Nice hat!” But most importantly, my wife of 45 years and family all like them. I will always be an AHM customer and have recommended them to friends and family alike. It is the only place I can find attractive, functional hats to fit my head (which is 8 1/4 hat size). Keep doing your great work, and thank you for what you do.
