Where to buy a comfortable, non leather, sunhat without embiggening the mortgage? (vegantheoryclub.org)

It's a hat. It shouldn't cost hundreds of dollars. I just want something like a semi-fashionable floppy sunhat and a straw hat. I've only seen them in bougie a.f. places or the straw hats from bunnings that don't fit my comically large head.

Please, save me from melanoma or bankruptcy. Where can I find nice hats without leather/animal glues in sydney? Ideally western sydney.

Have you had a look at the Cancer Council Shops?

Their stuff is always reasonably-priced, certified SPF, and their website lists hat sizes up to 63cm: https://www.cancercouncilshop.org.au/collections/hats?filter.p.m.custom.hat_sizes=63cm&filter.p.m.custom.hat_sizes=61cm&filter.p.m.custom.hat_sizes=60cm&filter.p.m.custom.hat_sizes=59cm

Their website lists a 'Kiosk' in Penrith, but I'm guessing that might have a limited selection, in which case the nearest 'Store' is in Hornsby: https://www.cancercouncilshop.org.au/pages/store-finder

Stores? Ooh look!
Weird that Brisbane and Perth (two of the hottest/sunniest cities in the country) don't get a store. I wonder whether we did have stores and they went out of business? Seems like a weird omission otherwise.

I thought they were just a sunscreen thing! Neat.
