I'm not convinced by that. I suppose if your main worry is your hair getting wet, it makes sense, but that's not a serious problem for me these days - even if I go to bed with wet hair it doesn't do any harm :-) For my money, the major value of an umbrella is keeping as much water as possible out of my clothes, which I'm likely to have to wear for the rest of the day and can't sensibly dry. So a hat would have to be really quite broad before it was worthwhile...
(Umbrellas still aren't optimal because they don't protect your legs well, of course, but the thick jeans I wear even in summer at least have the virtue of being difficult to waterlog.) |
