I wear fully brimmed hats year round, light weight in the summer, full leather Aussie style in the winter. I only wear ball caps when flying as I can't get the headset on over the wide brims, and need the eye shade in the morning and evening times. I complained to my dermatologist last time that even though I ALWAYS wear a hat outside, I still had a dozen spots to be frozen off. He said that I should see how many spots he has to freeze on the guys who refuse to wear a hat. The explanation for my case is that the damage was done many years before I started wearing a hat, which was about the time I bought the MGA (age 21) - hair got really tangled and blowing into my eyes without a hat.
