A sunhat’s main function might be, in theory, to shield your eyes from the sun.
But over the years, they have really just become a fashionable accessory.
Sure, they still serve their purpose, but what’s really important is their appearance.
Nobody wants an ugly sunhat. Nobody.
There are so many different styles out there now, I have no doubt there is something for everybody.
Just like in The Sims community. It’s a beautiful thing, the way players have come together to share their talents, so there really is CC for everyone.
Below you’ll find some of the best sunhats this lovely fandom has to offer – and they sure are wonderful!
Most of the time, when someone talks about a sunhat, you probably envision some sort of straw or mesh thing.
Those can certainly be nice, but there’s no reason such a common type of hat can’t see more innovation.
There’s no law stating what they must be made of, obviously.
Zuckerschnute20 has created a great example of the creativity that can be brought to these hats. This design features a glittery effect against white and yellow.
The results sure are pretty, making this hat a nice choice for spring outfits and formal ones alike.
As nice as it is to try new things, there’s a reason the classics hold up.
This sunhat from Shylaria has the timeless woven texture, as well as another classic – animal print!
The band is also available in six different patterns: leopard, cougar, tiger, zebra, cheetah, and giraffe.
Yes, even giraffe print!
Now I’m wondering why everyone’s favorite tallest, hoofed mammal has been left out from animal print fashion so long. Their spots look just as lovely as all the other critters.
You don’t usually see people wearing them with parkas, ya know?
This is one accessory that is best suited to a certain time of year, so you’ll want to make the best of it while you can.
If you have Seasons, I’m sure you can relate.
There’s so much fun stuff to do, it can feel like there is never enough time to get to it all, or have your Sim dressed right while you do it.
But these hats are indeed perfect for summer.
Whether your Sim just plans to chill in the backyard, suck up to the neighbor to use their pool, or hit the roller rink, you can’t beat a sunhat when it comes to a laid back, casual look.
At a glance, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with the base game sunhat.
In fact, most of the creations on this list are just built off of those.
They’re sufficiently sunhat-like, so unless you’re looking for something specific like new detailing, what more could you want?
More swatches, of course!
After looking at the same ones for years and years now, I’ve grown a little tired of them.
Luckily, this is where CC comes in.
This Simmer has really made those old hats look good as new with these recolors. There are 20 new swatches here, including plenty of fun and bright colors.
