Describe Your Hat

I used to have this black hat that looked like the one Boy George had, which I persisted in wearing up til the early 90s. Yes, it is sad.

I have a few hats but now my hair is short they all look silly. I have a stripey sunhat from H&M. I have a pink crocheted thing like a tea cosy. I have a boring grey winter hat. I have a magnificent fluffy black Hooch hat with white bits which makes me look like a Bond girl according to my ex. I wouldn't want to eat any of them but if forced I would eat the grey one as it is least fluffy / big.

Show us your hat g-kit!! Oh you did already (nu-ILX rocks!)

Let's not forget Katie's hat:

I have a hat: I bought it for holidays because I burn easily. It is one of those soft cricket hats you see the West Indies wearing a lot, except it's black. I bought it in Jamaica. It looks rub, obv.

i also have a purple nylon baseball cap with a picture of donald duck's head ala the pictures they started old disney shorts with

arthur, i want your hudson hawk hat!!!!

The other hat is a Davy Crockett one with a gen-yoo-ine raccon tail which I bought in a shop opposite the Alamo. When I returned from Texas I actually wore it around Oxford for a few days, until my landlord kindly pointed out that I was liable to get paint thrown over me by animal rights protestors. Since then I only wore it on one occasion, when I was meeting some people in a pub whom I'd only communicated with by e-mail previously, so I'd be easily recognisable, one of whom was sometime ILx poster Lo-fi Space Cadet. On that occasion I walked into the pub with the hat stuffed into my coat pocket (taking care to ensure that the tail wasn't poking out), and donned it once seated at the bar. It was only then that I noticed a work colleague seated a few stools down, who understandably laughed his head off and also reminded me of the event a few months later in his comments in my leaving card.

(Beaver hat - with flaps)

(Overheard: "But, Mom, I'll look stupid wearing a hat." "You'll look even stupider when your ears freeze off.")

is anyone wearing a hat?

Earlier on. But not now.

A black Kickers woollen number. very smart must say.

I have the best hat! It is blueish green and has an embroidered bird on it. It's very 40s looking and much more awesome than it sounds. If I remember I will take a pic tonight and post here. I love my hat. In fact, I love it so much that I have two of the same one.

Weird camera phone taken this morning of me in my favortite (ok, only) hat mentioned above! I finally broke it out. I love my hat!

Great picture!

I have two hats - one retro late 60s to early 80s Baltimore Orioles baseball cap, and a solid grey knit "skully".

I would LOVE to wear more - I think a hat can be a great addition to a man's wardrobe - but, as I have a HUGE head (size 8 with short hair), I don't make enough money to afford a nicely made hat.

I am in the same boat BLAM, huge head and big hair. I have one wide brimmed leather hat and a series of knitted hats for winter (ably knitted by my girlfriend in the main), todays is charcoal grey and teal, I have a felted orange one with earflaps and an orange brown and brown one, I am considering sending the gf to milenary school so she can block out some exciting broad brimmed hats.

I have two basic styles of hat, both utilitarian.

I wear baseball-style caps, of uniform color, usually beige, navy blue or black, preferably nylon, without a logo or having a very small unobtrusive one. The cap is to keep the rain off my glasses, the sun out of my eyes, and keeps my bald head protected from the weather.

I also wear shapeless stocking caps, of uniform color, wool or fleece, without a logo or having a very small unobtrusive one. These caps keep my poor, naked head warm when it is cold.

I wear one or the other of these styles of hat about 90% of my time spent outdoors. I do not wear hats indoors.

I fear this information only confirms that my hats, like my posting style, are vmic.

my stocking cap isn't shapeless, it's shaped like a stocking cap

(marvels at j's shapely stocking cap)

A brown leather Ecuadorean Stetson I got off ebay 5 years ago. A bit battered but it's got a wire shaping the rim. I like it.

Also a wide brimmed brown suede floppy hat that at its best looks very 1969.
At its worst it flies off my head in the wind..

"13. I have no idea what this fancy hat is"
