Last Minute Holiday Gift Guide: Bucket Hats

Nicole Dimock, Senior Editor

Have you ever been in that situation where you have that one person on your list who you have no clue what to get for Christmas? Well, with the holidays approaching, you may be experiencing this or scrambling to find that perfect gift. Scramble no more, and instead give that person a bucket hat. 

It’s hard to pinpoint exactly when bucket hats came back in style, but that doesn’t change the fact that they’ve always looked good on everyone. Let’s be honest, baseball caps, snapbacks, beanies, and other head-wear are getting old and overused. With other trends such as fanny packs and mom jeans coming back into style, bucket hats are doing the same. Bucket hats are perfect for people of all personalities and ages. Have a person obsessed with brands? Champion and Fila have you covered. Have someone who wants to switch up their style with a cute accessory? Bucket hat. 

Bucket hats not only look amazing, but they are functional and versatile. You can wear them nearly anywhere for multiple occasions. There are also some types better for cold or warm weather. They function as a nice accessory, but also to keep your head warm or shield your face from the sun. They also come in multiple materials and fabrics such as cotton, denim, or even corduroy. 

Bucket hats come at a very low price, some as low as $5 online, with various colors, patterns, or brands; if you are looking for an affordable gift, you have come to the right place. If you wanted a more expensive option, designer brands such as Burberry, Prada, Ralph Lauren, and even Gucci have options ranging as high as $500.

2019 has brought some amazing trends, the bucket hat being one of them. It may seem like a bold decision to wear one, but once you do, you won’t go back. You can find bucket hats at multiple clothing stores such as Pacsun or Urban Outfitters, or find a huge selection online. Let’s add some diversity to the hat world and embrace the bucket hat!
