'I’ve found that people tend to naturally keep a six-foot radius when you’re wearing what amounts to a dog 'cone of shame''

Photo: Courtesy of the author There has long been a group of older Chinese ladies who gather on the sidewalk in front of my house to do Tai Chi every morning, and since I’ve been working from home for the past month or so, I’ve seen them still diligently practicing . They sweetly encouraged me to follow along from my porch, and after two weeks of joining in, they gifted me what they’ve all been wearing while they practice: this black bucket hat with a clear face shield.

After looking deeper into the concept of wearing something to cover your face to protect from spit, dirt, or other pollutants that may be in the air, I decided to expand my collection and get this visor version. I still appreciate the bucket version, but this one keeps the top of your head cool and doesn’t mess up your hair.

I’ve since scoured the internet for variations of the hat to share with my family. I ordered this baseball hat version for my boyfriend and dad, this straw-cloche version for my aunt, and this futuristic, metallic silver version meant to protect your face from the sun for my mom to wear when she’s out gardening. I even got a kid’s version for my nephew, and his mom reported back that he loves wearing it — and that moms on the street are constantly asking where she got it.
