We’ve solved this problem with technology, you no longer have to choose between shade and looking cool.

Which way is the cool way though? You want the designer in front or back? I'm going to say it's situation dependent. Out by yourself? Pattern back would be cooler. But you wanna put your best front forward for like a job interview.

I was out hiking a couple years ago when I suddenly realised that I had become the guy with shades and a backwards cap. It's practical: I want to prevent a sunburn in my neck (the backwards cap) and also not have the sun in my eyes (shades). I spent some time coming to terms with it, but now that's how I'm regularly equipped in harsh sun in the mountains. It's simply the optimal solution to sun protection while hiking (I've tried wide-brimmed hats, but they get caught in the wind too easily in my experience).

You could go for something like this, just without the face flap bit. They look kinda goofy but work pretty well

These are also pretty good at shielding you from biting insects and fascist police state spy cameras.

My solution is much more simple. I just never go outside.

Pfft. Turtleneck. Or more realistically, one of them “buff” things. Basically turns whatever you’re wearing into a turtleneck.
Hats are hot and stuffy, I’ve found. I carry an umbrella as a parasol unless I’m biking or need both hands. Then it’s the Buff.
Also, a backwards hat to protect from the sun realistically offers dubious protection unless you are always walking directly away from the sun.

I use a buff to keep warm in winter, couldn't imagine wearing one in summer!

I typically flip it depending on sun direction. I've found the neck to be most critical though, I don't seem to burn as easily on the sides/front.

It would cut into the bro bro factor

At some point the meaning of the baseball cap worn backwards flipped from “streetwise hepcat who can probably breakdance and/or scratch and is handy with a spraycan” to “basic macho dude”

It's so you can look cool and still see square.

Don't you know? Nobody answers their phone, grandpa. If it's important, they will send a message.
