Personally, Matthew looks a bit 'Brokeback' there with the
shaved chest and all. He made a movie around here,Amistad iirc; word on
the street was the guy was a total twit.

This one is perfect if there is an opening in Riders in the Sky. How are your skills with a lasso?

Also heard that he doesnt wear deo, that he likes to smell "manly". Which is just fine with me.....the man is just flat out sexy!!!!! Maybe its the southern accent...

You should get a hat that fits your bodytype. If you are a tall guy, get a tall hat. If you are wide throught he shoulders, get a hat that is wide in the brim.

If you mix that up you will look dorky. Short guys with tall-crowned hats look dumb. Skinny guys with wide brims look dumb. But it's even worse if you're a big guy and the hat is too small. It could be the right size and all. But if your shoulders are wider than some doorways (like mine) and you wear a hat with a narrow brim, then you're a doek.

So no porkpie for Wayne. Which is a shame, because porkpir hats are cool, just not for me. Fedoras almost work, but are still generally too narrow because of my enormous round Charlie Brown head. About the only kinds that I can get away with are the kind of cowboy-ish hats with the lowered crown and a four inch brim. Or go completely the other way and get one with no visible brim from the front, like the Kangol things that Samuel L. Jackson wears all the time, just without that stupid kangaroo on them.

Hey! There's nothing stupid about the Kangaroo.

I just wish mine hadn't gotten washed and then dried in the drier. It barely fits my nine-year-old.

I'm just totally not a fan of giant Australian hopping rats on my forehead.

I've got a cheap hat shaped liked those from the WalledMarket of all places. It's horrifyingly 'me'.

Hats really are cool. A basic fedora looks good on most guys - adds a touch of class. For outdoor summer gigs, I always wear a Panama hat. The brim and crown size are up to you, but there are combinations that look good on anyone.

Here's a reference to check:
