The Trucker's Hat - Fashion on the Road

Remember a few years ago when couriers and truckers became the best new influence on the fashion industry? Not for their super-sized drink cups and moustaches, but for their choice of headwear.
Trucker-style hats were suddenly all the rage and everyone from Ashton Kutcher to Lindsay Lohan were wearing them everywhere. But you can bet that it all began with an unknown owner driver. Jobs that took them up and down the roads in the bright desert sunshine necessitated the use of sunglasses and hats to help keep the glare out of their eyes while driving. Somehow, someone decided these guys looked pretty cool and, voila, a fashion was born! But the question must be asked then, what is the best hat to wear while working on those owner driver jobs?
Cowboy hats - From the classic black Stetsons to the cheaper straw varieties, you can pick up one of these at any gas station across the country while on owner driver jobs. These hats are stylish and cool. The brim usually extends four inches all the way around the crown and provides you with shade from every angle. The only problem with wearing a cowboy hat while driving, is that you might need to lower the head rest on your seat so that the back of the hat brim doesn't bump against it and prevent you from sitting all the way back.
