In the P. G. Wodehouse book, "Meet Mr. Mulliner," we find the term wideawake, referring to a style of hat. According to Wikipedia, it is "a broad brimmed felt 'countryman's hat' with a low crown, similar to a slouch hat. A wideawake hat is most commonly seen in dark shades of cloth, such as dark brown or black felt. The brim is fairly wide, and is flat in front and back but with a moderate upturn on the left and right sides."
