Adam Savage, of Mythbusters fame, and noted hat wearer, said in a Q&A once that even he feels weird when trying out a new hat. Like, he wears hats all the time, but a different hat than one he's used to feels awkward and "not like me". And you just have to grow into it, because if you get through that then it starts feeling right instead.
At least that's what he claims, I don't wear hats myself, besides a sunhat on a hike or paddle.
I think this is the video I'm referencing (sorry for the YouTube link) but I can't watch a video in my current situation, so I can't verify. If it's just some random video about hats, I'm sorry 😛
I get that entirely. I have a specific style of hat that I started wearing to not get bald guy sunburns (I’ve been told it’s an “I call movies ‘films’” hat.), people know that hat on me, it just works with my head shape. I’m not a hat person, I’m a that hat person. Trying on any other type of hat makes me feel absolutely fucking ridiculous.
