BADBOY BUCKETS
The surfy statement
Stussy Stock Bucket Hat
Much like the Stuff editorial team, Stussy might be heading into middle age these days, but the kings of Californian casual clothing remain cool as feck – and you’ll not find a more vintage surf vibe than this classic washed cotton bucket, complete with iconic embroidered logo. £54 / stussy.co.uk
The technical topper
Norse Projects Gore-Tex Bucket Hat
This is clean, simple Scandi style with robust 50-denier polyester and a waterproof but breathable Gore-Tex membrane in the middle. An excellent practical choice… but please, no matter how bad the weather gets, do not be tempted to use the adjustable chin-strap.
