Men's fashion is dreadfully boring, but one thing we used to have was a profusion and proliferation of different hats we could wear.

I know the m'lady meme and mall ninjas have forever cursed the fedora (as well as the actually, that's a trilby crowd), but those memes postdate the decline of the hat by several decades.

Currently, we only have baseball caps and beanies in common circulation, with impractical-for-sidewalk-use cowboy hats being the only extant outlier.

Does anyone long for the return of the hat and/or have any insight into what caused their decline?

Perfect. I hate cars, love hats. I have my villain origin story now. Thanks.
