While we're on hats. What's the fastet speed you've gone with your top down and your hat on? My baseball cap starts becoming unstable and trying for lift off around 110mph.
The only hat I've found that will stay on over speeds of 120+ with the top down is the old skool Kangol -- worn backwards (i.e. Sam Jackson style). I lost 1 or 2 baseball hats (even worn backwards) b4 I learned my lesson.

WOW Purp
Where'd ya go that fast? I95 at rush hour?
My ponytail holds mine on I don't need a clip, Ricks headrest sdoesn't hurt either.
Try one of those fishing caps with the mesh back, they don't lift off.
Thanks Lainey. That hat clip looks like a good solution. Has a little "dork factor" to it though. It looks a little like a power cord. I can imagine someone pulling up next to me and asking if my hat was plugged in. . I would reply that it is the power supply for my brain.

I-75, my friend. Right around 2 am, you're pretty much the only one on the road. It's a beautiful thing. No cars to slow you down (not any that can catch you anyways).
I have to wear a hat and sunglasses because my eyes are sensitive to the sun. I too wear prescription glasses. I get visors at Target, that kind of pinch the front of your head and don't go all the way around. They don't mess up your hair as much as a whole hat does. I've had them blow off jogging when it's windy and a semi goes by, but they stay on perfectly behind the windshield. They may be too girly for a man though.

Never thought about the "dork factor." But hey dorks don't ride/drive around in "S's".
They are cheap and work quite well. Boaters use them too from what I've heard.
