Bucket hats are sick dude, cop this! http://www.amazon.com/City-Hunter-Face-Emoji-Bucket/dp/B00X2T672Q
There is a reason glider pilots are also members of the silly hat club. You've got that Halo headset so you too can pull off the bucket.
I'm the same height and approximatly same weight, too.
I'tll be a bit inconvenient, as it takes a bit more than just hopping in to fly comfortably, but it can work. What makes it work for me is:
The best way to find out is take some time and experiment with what works for you and the glider you'll be flying.
Good Luck!

The first thing that comes to mind is flip flops. You could probably also find a slide sandal that's quite casual. Gladiators, leatherish, and most statement shoes wouldn't fit in as well where I'm from. It's not my thing, but sockless vans, keds, converse, etc are also fair game. Sanuks, Rainbows, Reefs, etc. have had their peaks and valleys for trendiness, but remain popular across age groups.
IME in a beach town, a lot of the look comes not from buying beach clothes, but from re-purposing clothing for the beach lifestyle. Old sweat pants and jeans become cut-offs. Brothers' outgrown sweatshirts get the necks cut off and a button down with a stain that won't come out is now a cover up. Of course, there are resort and surf brands that also contribute to the dominant fashions where I'm from. And non beach-influenced fashion lines that are popular tend to be more casual or familiar.
Locals wear a lot of tunics and dresses that can be worn at a casual bar/restaurant and the beach alike. But that's really closely tied to my particular beach culture, where you head off on your bike in the morning and you end up going from house to house and you never know if you'll be taking a real shower or where the day will bring you.
Visors are more popular than most would imagine, especially baseball cap styles and straw styles, but not the plastic-y kind. Sun hats borrow a good deal of inspiration from lifeguards, boaters, and fishers, and general beach goers, but I can't remember the last time I've seen an actual large floppy hat. [This] (https://www.amazon.com/Lanzom-Womens-Bowknot-Straw-Foldable/dp/B06XXXQXLN/ref=sr_1_14?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1523827177&sr=1-14&nodeID=7141123011&psd=1&keywords=floppy+hat) would be a bit much where I'm from.
Swimwear is typically more surf-shop and less pool-side looking. In the 25+ crowd I see more classic one pieces and fewer monokinis. Two pieces tend to range from revealing to more full coverage, but included a lot of surf and floral prints, solid colors, classic patterns (dots and stripes). It's pretty common to have mismatched yet coordinated tops and bottoms. Bottoms are more likely to be solid than tops, since they may have to match both the top of the suit and a rash guard.
A good pair of white jeans or other simple, opaque, white pants screams beachy to me. And fits in with a Miami or New England look depended on how you dress it up or down.
And the most important feature of the beachwear I'm most familiar with is that you keep it for years. Sometimes decades. Not the most fashion forward, but it's also the norm. I think there is something about living in an area where the population and lifestyles fluctuate so much on the off and on seasons that it effects the way you experience seasons and the passing of time. I can't put my finger on it, but I think it has something to do with how off-trend we can seem from the outside.
I was a big fan of Hawaiian print short sleeve button downs when I was a kid and they had a resurgence, and there are one or two I still wear, but I think Hawaiian print had more staying power on a bathing suit or dress. The drawback there is that dresses and bathing suits may be more expensive, and if you DO change your mind about them, you may not get as many wears out of them. Hibiscus prints are a little more common and less trendy, perhaps because they actually grow up and down the east coast.
The really big floppy ones always drape annoyingly in my face. This year I think I'm going to look for more of a mushroom shape (edit: or this). (Second edit: those are both small hats. I eventually had to get one from Target to fit my large American head.)
For the canopy used in modern DG gliders, they claim that "The canopies do not totally screen out UV, but do absorb about 95% of it".
As for bucket hats, yeah they are dorky looking, but they are the best thing for the purpose. If you feel too weird wearing a plain old bucket hat, why not get a novelty hat? At least then it looks like you're self-aware of how goofy they look.
I have this roll-up had from San Diego hat company and a packable hat from Siggi. Siggi sells a bunch of cute ones.
The one I have is this
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01C5GMLZI/ref=mp_s_a_1_11/140-4177056-9932304?ie=UTF8&qid=1505062612&sr=1-11&refinements=p_4%3ASIGGI&pi=SL140_CR0,0,140,180_QL70
In navy, it's really cute, the brim is kinda stiff and not really crushable but foldable and packable haha
Thus is what I’m eyeballing. I’d remove those ribbon things. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01C5GMLZI/
I haven't personally tried this, but based on one of the other recs in this thread, I found this ponytail-friendly hat that still has neck protection and about as much scalp protection as that hair opening could allow!
I've been thinking about getting a bucket hat. I like it, but I might have to worry about rocking it with confidence. Here are a couple links of ones that I've looked at: 1 2 3
Did a quick Amazon search & found: https://www.amazon.com/Unisex-Cotton-Packable-Summer-XL/dp/B06W9GB2PZ/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1491697460&sr=8-4&keywords=bucket+hats
Can do.

I like bucket hats. They are a little less intense, and slightly more fashionable, than the fishing hat you link to. (In fact a lot of guys wear them all summer in my city.) They roll up to fit in a pocket and provide good sun protection.

Found it. It looks like it’s gone down in price, too, since I got it. I think it was around $20? Anyway, it’s a good hat. Just make sure you iron or steam it when you get it cause it comes folded into quarters and the creases were pretty gnarly on mine for a bit.
Oh lord, did your simple request send me down a crazy rabbit hole! So, needless to say, 'high tech' cyberpunk stuff does not include a lot of hats. Hoods, yes, hoods everywhere for the love of god. Helmets, yes. Masks, yes. Veils, occasionally. But not so much hats.
Now, for 'low life' cyberpunk, hats are easy. Beanies of any variety and military caps, occasional baseball caps (mainly for men) and wide, floppy hats (mainly for women). But not so much the 'high tech' side of things.
BUT there's a loophole! Since so much of the 'high tech' cyberpunk draws from film noir, I think you could get away with incorporating a cloche-like shape into your wardrobe. i really like the shape of this one here, but any cloche-like shape without flower accents that sits close to the head without a wide brim should work. I found this and this on Amazon.
EDIT: ooh, if you could find a sleek white cloche that would look fantastic.
I wouldn't say essentials as a whole but essentials to ME:

I considered it a full time second job so I put maybe more effort into it than some people might want to, but I like to be very prepared in general and it's saved my ass countless times. I also carry a full change of clothes, including shoes, in my moped.

Hats as a concept aren't the issue, I don't think - it's that the available styles are not typically suitable to me.
Some hats have looked decent in the past, but I'm really hoping there's something unique and interesting out there. I found a couple interesting things on Amazon:
Galaxy bucket hat:

These are all just variations on common pre-existing hat varieties, but that's something I'm not opposed to depending on how ridiculous yet awesome something happens to be overall.
In short: No, shut up, I'll find a damn hat and I'll burn all of yours while you revel in the glory of whatever headpiece I have chosen, you dissenting defeatist scum.
