23 Best Men

Picture the scene: it's a summer's day, the sun is shining and you're enjoying a drink in a pub beer garden. You're wearing your favourite pair of shades, but you know your look is missing something. It's missing that final piece of the jigsaw that transforms an outfit from so-so to sick. It's missing a bucket hat.

Thankfully this scenario is fictional, but so that this fiction never turns into a reality, we've scoured the internet to find the 23 best bucket hats you can buy right now. From Kangol to Gucci and from corduroy to faux-leather, these are the bucket hats we think you'll be wearing from spring to summer and beyond.

Sometimes you have to make a choice between style and function, but with this bucket hat you get both. Inspired by the 'vast wilderness and climate' of Oregon, USA, this hat's canvas helps keep you dry in wet weather, the wide brim delivers 360 degrees of coverage and a drawcord lets you personalise the fit.

Made from durable cotton-canvas, appliquéd with a leather patch and featuring an adjustable logo-jacquard tie, this bucket hat from the Loewe x Paula's Ibiza collab is expertly crafted.

If you want your bucket hat to make a statement, look no further than this from Gucci. What statement will you be making? Well, you'll be telling everyone you don't mind dropping £400 on a bucket hat when it looks like this.

Grab yourself a small slice of NY street style with this paisley bucket hat, which has been made as part of Barbour's collaboration with New York-based menswear label Noah.

For maximum protection from the sun without compromising on style, look no further than this boonie hat from Urban Outfitters. It has mesh panelling to keep you cool, a wide, all-round brim to keep your face shaded, and an adjustable chin strap for a snug fit.

Designed by outdoors brand Battenwear, this Camp Crusher bucket hat is both expertly equipped to take on the elements and plenty fashionable for city street style thanks to the brand's ties with New York's Garment District. Made from 100% nylon, it has an adjustable toggle for ensuring the perfect fit, plus, it's quick-drying.

You really can't go wrong with Carhatt accessories and this logo-patch bucket hat is no exception. With a curved narrow brim and circular design, it's made from 100% cotton and comes in three colours: Pale-yellow, razzmic/ice water, black and beige.

A truly classic bucket hat, this single-striped upgraded version of the classic Kangol is simple, understated and available in a choice of eight colours to match any style.

A luxury take on a streetwear staple, we're a big fan of the olive green and black version of this bucket hat from Paul Smith. Made from 50% organic materials, it has a dropped wide brim, flat crown and embroidered PS logo.

New Era have been in the game since 1920, so it's fair to say they know a thing or two about what making quality headwear. This is their essential bucket hat, featuring the brand's flag logo, which comes in seven different colours.

GORE-TEX are known as the masters of high-performance kit for a reason, and this hat, made together with Nanamica, is no different. It’s made with a waterproof Gore-Tex outer layer, making it the perfect hat for either sunshine or showers.

If you're looking for the bucket hat Jay Kay from Jamiroquai would have worn in the mid 90s, look no further.

Tie dye is a key trend for summer 2023 (probably). Get involved with this subtle number from Nike.

If simplicity's what you're after, you can't go wrong with this black bucket hat from Adidas and Beyonce's athleisure clothing line, Ivy Park.

If you're a LeBron James fan boy, this New Era bucket hat dons a Los Angeles Lakers badge – guaranteed to upgrade your basketball skills (possibly).

Nike and Skepta, okay. Adidas and Beyonce, sounds good. Nike and ‘60s rock heroes Grateful Dead. Come again? It doesn't matter how strange the collaboration is when the end result looks this good.

This bucket hat from Versace has been crafted in Italy and will add style to whatever outfit you choose to wear it with.

Yes, this bucket hat looks great in black with the name of the iconic menswear brand graffitied across the peak, but you can also reverse it to reveal the brands even-more-iconic check pattern on the inside. That's what we call a win win.

This bucket hat boasts UPF 50 protection that will protect your head from the sun's harmful UV rays. It's also reversible so you can either wear the black version (as shown) or flip it round to reveal a white bucket hat.

Keep your headtop comfortably covered with this logo-patch denim bucket hat from Musium.
