It is truly a matter of preference.
I prefer the US Army issue Boonie hat in summer months and a fur-lined toboggan in winter.
The Boonie is a full sun protection hat that is very versatile, like most military gear. It can be folded and stuffed into a pocket without losing any of its shape integrity. Most have para-cord sewed into the underside that is worn around the neck. The functional purpose for the cord is so the hat can be easily accessed when not being worn, as well as a catch if the hat is blown or knocked off.
In winter, anything that keeps your head warm is sufficient. Make sure the material is wind resistant. Poplin is a good choice of fabric for the exterior.
If you want a good all-purpose backpacking hat, buy a wool Baseball cap.
