The present invention relates to a hybrid hat having a shape of a visor and a bucket hat. The hat can feature a strap or headband to secure to a wearer's head, and a brim extending therefrom to protect a wearer's face, neck, and ears from sunlight. The hat offers circumferential sun protection of a bucket hat, while allowing for the wearer's hair to extend freely above the headband by having an open aired top portion, similar to a visor. The hat can include an adjustable strap/cord and brim to selectively fit the hat to form a closed circular loop to circumscribe the head of the wearer. The hat can be adjusted by a drawstring which is concealed in a decorative sleeve disposed around the headband. The drawstring can be cinched to adjust the diameter of the headband to fit the size of head of a wearer.

A removable cooling apparatus for a hat spaces a headband of the hat away from a wearer's head, creating an air gap that allows air flow over the wearer's head. A removable cooling apparatus uses coupling structures to hold the removable cooling apparatus in place against the headband. The removable cooling apparatus can be removed completely from the hat when not needed or for cleaning, leaving the hat in an unaltered state. A removable cooling apparatus may use a thin flexible strip to keep the headband of the hat from falling open into the air gap created by the removable cooling apparatus. The removable cooling apparatus use compressible pads to space the headband away from the wearer's head. The contact location of the compressible pads with the wearer's head can be easily adjusted by the wearer.
