Thread: Hats

I like very much these cowboy hats I see in your posts.

But if I wear one and go around the streets of Athens, everyone will look at me as if I was some kind of extraterrestrial.

Slur - maybe you could get yourself a good bowler?

Much like a dark suit, every man should own at least one dark Fedora.

This is mine:

Stetson - Fedora

Otto - I can't disagree with you on that one.

This hat looks like one the Locke hat company makes and was worn in the latest Sherlock holmes movie. Cool looking brim.

I'm all with the little boy in The Horse Whisperer who wears his hat "because it fits his head". The hat that fit my head used to be a Stetson Rawhide but my head grew too big as my dreads got longer. Therefore my SWMBO bought me a Stetson Chalco that fits better for christmas last year. It looks like this (sorry about that tin-can):



I wear it pretty much every day as long as it's not too much below freezing outside. Here I'm helping my daughter build a new patio at our house:



Here is one from a deer hunt earlier this year:



Even had it on at one of the weddings I went to last summer. No pictures to prove it though. (At the other wedding it was actually my SWMBO's sister who was the bride so I dug out my black London made vintage cylinder hat).

I have a couple of other options for hunting too though. Mainly this Austrian hat that used to belong to my grandfather. Try to wear it if I'm out with my old Belgian s/s:



I try my very best to teach my little kids to wear proper hats too :

Up here you'd have to be very brave man (or have quick feet) to carry those cockades in your hat. Nice hats anyways. We call them 'Hruštšov'

But then you'd have to listen to a little of the old Ludwig Von, Like this:
