They ALL started out as women's apparel.....

The word fedora comes from the title of an 1882 play by dramatist Victorien Sardou, F?dora being written for Sarah Bernhardt.[4] The play was first performed in the United States in 1889. Bernhardt played Princess F?dora, the heroine of the play. During the play, Bernhardt ? a notorious cross-dresser ? wore a center-creased, soft brimmed hat. The hat was fashionable for women, and the women's rights movement adopted it as a symbol.[5][2] After Prince Edward of Britain started wearing them in 1924, it became popular among men for its stylishness and its ability to protect the wearer's head from the wind and weather.[2][5] Since the early part of the 20th century, many Haredi and other Orthodox Jews have made black fedoras normative to their daily wear.

You don't get a decent quality fedora at Wally World.

Getting what you are looking for is the main thing.....  "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
