Gambler Hats have a low oval shape crown, straight sidewalls, flat telescopic crown top hat with medium to large curled brim. Lately also referred to as Heisenberg, Walter White Breaking Bad hat. Porkpie Hats are small curled brim hats. Sidewalls taper slightly upward. Originally very shallow, now low to medium crown height with set-in top. Its name is a reference to the actual pork pie dish. Often associated with blues and jazz. 

A boater hat is made of straw and has flat brim, straight sidewalls, shallow crown with flat top, typically, accented with a solid color or striped ribbon. Also referred to as straw boater, skimmer, somer, basher, cady. Classic turn of the 20th Century look. Bolero, Gaucho Hats were originally worn by cowboys in South America. These hats are made of felt with wide flat brim, shallow flat crown with chin cord. Think Zorro, or Spanish dancers.
