Personally, I don’t care to match my hats to my hair. Just me. Good luck!

As with any good fedora, All colors go great with gray hair.

You might think it trivial, mocking even, but truly, it's none of that. Would you ask the question what shoes?/Socks?/Gloves or any other accoutrement? If you like it, wear it, stuff what others think.

Take you skin color into account, as well. Even slightly varying shaded of skin tone can make or break a hat color, or range of colors for a person.

I agree. I have colors ranging from the conservative side like black and grey, to more colorful fedoras such as green, red, and blue. I try to color coordinate with my clothing even though I'm color blind. So just go for it.

Light colors like Silverbelly, White, Sky or Powder Blue, Light Grey, Cream, and Ivory I think work best for me. But like everyone I wear all colors.

From another thread. I forgot who posted the image, but thanks. I like my bluegrass green stylemaster best with my 'greying' hair.
