This picture is from a trip to Miami. If it's sold in America, then it's what Americans wear. I agree with Japan.
Honestly. The only thing they got wrong is the cowboy hat, and that's just because it's uncommon in most areas of the states. We'll slap the flag on anything - even things that it's "illegal" to put the flag on according to the same rules that say that you have to burn the flag if it touches the ground, like paper napkins.
As a Dallas resident, I'd assert that the cowboy hat is a fairly common accessory for women. Not so much for men until you get way out into the rural areas. (Fort Worth Stockyards notwithstanding)
Sure, but Dallas ain't the east or west coasts, and even in the Midwest, it's probably pretty spotty from one locale to the next on whether or not you'll see them being worn. I think big straw/woven sun hats are probably more uniformly worn across the country than cowboy hats.
Now, if we were talking about baseball caps with a sports logo on it, then I'd say it's as endemic to every corner of the country as oxygen is.
