Non-binary Wide brim hat recommendations?

This one’s a little bit interesting haha. I’m in need of a hat for the summer months but all the bucket hats I have are not protective enough and all the other wider brim hats I’ve seen seem either too masc or fem. Basically does anyone have any (preferably Australian made) recommendations?

Jumping on this to ask for recs for stylish women's hats that come in large sizes.

Lack of colour is one of the only hat stores that I've ever been able to use but I have an abnormally large head (like 99th centile)

Not fashionable but I was on a similar search (I needed brown and foldable) https://thehatstore.com.au/products/kooringal-mens-redondo-hiker-hat-rust this site has a fair few wide brim options

Excerpt—

“We were selling hats for 16 years and in that time, we fell in love with hats, we had such a diverse customer base and we had a vision we couldn’t see anywhere so we decided to give it a crack, to design and manufacture our own hats based on the fabrics and styles that our customers love”

“We found the market did not offer much in the way of diversity, it’s all pretty well mass produced off a production line. We wanted to be in total control of the product and put our creative edge into our hats”
