i was waiting for Lester Young to show up.
a fedora would look even sillier on my head than it would with my persona/wardrobe. lately i'm into the kind of oversized knit beanie hipsters were wearing c.2008.

Whoa! Ouch!
I think top hats need to come back too.

I'm going to respect your wishes, not because I want to (I was trying to find pictures of Ducky from PRETTY IN PINK in suspenders this morning), but cause I love and respect you so much.

Tell that to 19th century England bredda. Or the entire Mennonite population that surrounds me, they *love* their fedora's and other similar hats, dress very formally and labour as hard as any man can labour. Come 40 degree summer or -40 winter, they'll be out there in their blue shirts and cool hats, hands like hams and elegant shoes.
I've been wearing a small stetson lately, to embrace the countryside living and because I wanted to feel more confident in my general villainy. No one bats an eyelid at it where I live, as as I live on the high street of a cowboy town, it really does make me feel like Texas Red.
When I hit 40 I'm going to wear a tweed hat and enter my "Yorkshire farmer who got really, really lost" phase. Sharky, I want you to wear a straw fedora constantly. headphones on top of it, crushing the sides down.

I will be the foil to your person and try to be "Jersey Farmer [they exist] who got lost in Yorkshire'.
Side note, I have more draw string hats than I care to admit...

Or I'll just stay par for the course... I know Olin approves.

I used to wear a fedora. I inherited it from my grandfather, who passed away in the late 80s. Mid-90s, I was all aboard the ska-punk train and you could see me tooling around town in my grandfather's fedora, tying together an outfit otherwise composed of a Toasters t-shirt, cargo shorts, and Chucks. One day, I went out to a scooter rally/ska festival and fell asleep watching some punk band reunion (the Meatmen, maybe?) late in the evening. When I woke up at the end of their set, my grandfather's fedora was gone. I've been off my hat game ever since.

I used to wear an inherited Country Gentleman hat -- looking now it was a Cuffley, which they call a fedora:

I looked so lit.
(that's not me)
I believe they have anything anyone in this thread could possibly need:

I have a couple of those hats too. I always liked them.
@Olin - Fashion related. I still wear my BARE WIRESON shirts (that's right plural) all the time. Still think about ugly reaboks too.
