I recommend the Village Hat Shop coconut porkpie. Definitely under $100, very smart looking, very Sam Snead. The only caveat is, if you order online, you don't have a choice in the band pattern (if you get it in person, you can choose). The bands are all plaid, but different sorts of plaids. Still, it's a well made, comfortable, very sharp looking hat that goes for about $30. Beyond that I'd suggest a Biltmore Milan straw.

I'll second the Biltmore suggestion. I've got 3 Biltmore porkpies or flattops....I've been pleased with all of them. Very reasonably priced.

One of these days, I'd like to actually see a pork pie on a restaurant menu.
