That visor has to be pulled down a bit to avoid catching wind. Tight hat = best bet

I absolutely have to wear something to keep my hair from poking my eyes out at high speed. Sometimes I'll wear a hat backwards and that works OK, but the best thing is my Houston Texans Visor. Keeps the hair back and still allows the wind to go through your hair - it's a win-win. Plus, the visor never even feels like it's going to blow off, I guess because it allows the air to pass through the hole. One problem with this off course is the messed up hair, but not really a problem for me.

I wear one of those sun-visors rather than a full hat. W/o the top portion seems like you're able to pull it a little lower so it's more firmly attached to your head.

Anyone have any experience with this?
I have this hat, and haven't had too many problems. At speed I generally have the side windows up, but when I get into the triple digits (with no one around, of course) the hat will start buffeting and shaking my glasses, which is not a good thing for visibility, so I usually take it off. Otherwise, for cruising around town, I've always got it on - can't stand the glare otherwise...

i usually wear a visor with a velcro strap. i never really considered the possibility of losing it in the wind. i guess the velcro keeps things tight and secure.

Mostly, my hats stay on but just in case they don't I have a hat retention device.

That's smart, just don't wear it outside of the car or you might look like a douche.

I just pull my down a little lower than where I usually wear it at and it's been fine for the past year.
