What is a "bucket hat"?

A bucket hat is a type of hat with a wide, downward-sloping brim that goes all around the hat, creating a bucket-like shape. The hat typically has a soft, flexible crown and is made of lightweight material such as cotton or nylon. It is a popular choice for outdoor activities like fishing, hiking, and camping as it provides protection from the sun and rain. Bucket hats are available in a variety of colors and designs, ranging from plain and neutral to bright and patterned. They are often considered casual accessories and have been popularized by various subcultures over the years.
