No, but working outdoors on a sunny day, a wide brim hat is welcome. I
have one that was specially designed to wear along with headphones, with
openings in the brim for the headphones' head band. You can't pull the
headphones off quickly without taking off the hat, but it does the job
nicely when you need it. There's even a "Lawrence of Arabia" flap in the
back to keep the sun off your neck. Like all good things, it seems to
have been discontinued by the manufacturer, Koala Windsocks (they make
microphone wind screens, too)


My problem is that the wide brim changes my perception of imaging a lot.
Even a baseball cap is a little bit audible, but something like a Stetson
or a Gilligan hat really screws me up.

Not a problem with headphones but it's a fast problem as soon as I take it
off.
