It is a little off topic but I just wanted to share some info. I service swimming pools in the summer and work part time for a stove shop in the winter. When cleaning stoves it dont seem to matter how careful you are your hat takes a beating and gets dirty. I bought these hats they are "Port Authority Signature Dry Zone Cap". They are cool in the summer and do the job in the winter. The best thing is they are washable. Mine are 5 years old and have been washed and dried at least 100 times with no ill effects. I have 3 of them and wash them at least once per week and grab a clean one off the stack. The bill is poly and does not loose its shape and they dont shrink. They are super comfortable and dont even have to be broke in. Some days I may have to wash daily if we are working on pellet installs and have to get in fire box to pull liner down. I just cant stand a nasty looking hat!
 
I could use a hat like that. Where do you get them from?

Can you post a pic of one and the manufacturer, etc?

Here is a picture of one that is new and one that is 5 years old and washed at least 100 times. About to go into wash again. Google "Port Authority Signature Dry Zone Cap". There are many sites that sell them.
