Bought a paper hat. It looks, at a distance, like a black straw hat, but is in fact made from paper. I look cool in it, though. Of course. 19 CHF at C&A. I expect it handles water considerably worse than my Wegener. I can now enlighten the audience further: Most felt hats, like my black felt Wegener, should not be exposed to water, lest they lose their cool shape and become unwieldy felt rags.
