This Is the Bucket Hat’s World, and We’re All Just Living in It

We’re kidding ourselves if we don’t acknowledge one simple fact: Bucket hats are weird. And the fact that we’re so into them is pretty damn weird, too. Bucket hats are the kind of thing you wear to the pool as a straight-up toddler, when you’re old enough to splash around in the kiddie pool but too young to have grown any hair of your own. We’ve seen a vast array of retro trends make oh-so nostalgic comebacks, but bucket hats have to be one of the strangest—I mean, can any of us even remember wearing them back in the day? What’s nostalgic about that?

My aim here isn’t the be a downer. I was bucket hat-averse when the trend’s first iteration reared its head in 2018. But now that I’ve had a full 12 months to contemplate the accessory’s existence, it’s hard to do anything but accept it. (It’s also hard not to embrace anything that promises to expand the summer hat-scape. Straw hats are cute and all, but they’re impossible to wear on the subway, on a busy sidewalk, or even at your desk; sporting one anywhere in New York City—or anywhere but the beach—is an abject hazard.) Who am I to hate on something so inherently fun it’s collectively embraced by toddlers? I mean really, what did the bucket hat ever do to me besides protect my head when I was a wee tot?

If the bucket hat was good enough for your 2-year-old self, it’s probably good enough for your 20-something self. And whether you like it or not, it’s here to pervade our lives (again). Strange as this trend may be, its power is simply too immense to be restrained. This is the bucket hat’s world now, and we’re just living in it.
