Probably one of the least thought-about menswear actuaries is hats. They hold the power of altering an entire outfit but still, we pay so little attention to them. All through the history of pop culture and in recent years, hats have stamped their authority as a must-have. Think of movies like The Godfather and Peaky Blinders that in their entirety imbibed the hat-wearing culture.
