Mine are Poten hats. I like that they're "artisinally" made and the leather sweat band feels unique. Been wearing a synthetic suede hat from them and I like that it looks like suede but is more durable because it's a nylon hat brushed to look/feel like suede...

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Artists are anal. Artisanal.

[–] Sludge@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

I can buy the hats, but I clearly don't know how to spell.

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I'm 39, I don't wear hats.

I do wear this at festivals

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago

I've never seen anyone do this.

Not one...

Flat cap with fold-down ear warmers. It's like a sophisticated baseball cap, and you won't freeze your ears off when it hits -10.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Used to have an amazing one I splurged on. My ex put it in the dryer. 😭

Mine is a Boonie hat in digicam that I made myself from scratch

Your face camo works better with that terrain than the hat camo

Your skin looks radiant! What is your secret?

Remember when silly hats the key factor in determining who should go to war with who?

[–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

My hat's a tactical cap with hook-and-loop mounting points, where I change out various morale patches based on what I'm feeling that day. (A lot of times it's the X-COM "vigilo confido" patch haha.)

So does the hat choose my personality? Or does my personality choose the hat? Who's to say. It's flexible and open to change at least. :D

I'm a big XCOM fan, and I love that you have a Vigilo Confido patch.

I have a collection of toques for winter and keep another collection of ballcaps from various places, mostly museums and zoos. The one I got for visiting the Smithsonian was a Washington D.C. one, though, and it doesn't cover my head well.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 10 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

As long as it’s not the maga hat we good fam.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

You can pry my MAKE AMERICA GOON AGAIN hat from my cold, dead hands.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 8 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

As a 49ers fan I carry a little extra hate for them choosing a red hat to signify their shittiness.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 5 points 12 hours ago

Same as a Chicago Bulls fan.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 7 points 15 hours ago

The wind easily blew my hat off the other day…that’s when I realized I bought it more than 15 years ago and it’s probably time to update old faithful.

[–] Vengefu1Tuna@lemmy.zip 44 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Haha, I'm glad I'm not like that....

remembers the blue hat I wear every day

Ah, crap.

[–] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 11 points 22 hours ago

Same exact reaction.

“At least I don’t wear a hat.”

Except for that blue cadet-style cap you got in Colorado that you liked because it, combined with your beard, made you look vaguely like a train conductor or a maybe a Union soldier and also expressed your love of mountains which you wear almost every morning when walking your dog to hide your bed-head.

“Fuck.”

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 6 points 16 hours ago

Damn.

I was about to make a joke about a dumb novelty hat I wore my senior year of college... then realized I wore it so much that if I did so, there'd be a non-zero chance I might accidentally dox myself lol

I'm sure they were mass produced, but Murphy's Law is a cruel mistress haha

I waited until 40 and went with the rave/dance festival bucket hat

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 10 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I try to pull off a hat and end up like this:

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 8 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

How euphoric (do people still make that joke?)

[–] FauxLiving@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago

Probably, I recently saw someone make that joke on social media.

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 16 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Texas: Y'all ain't gotta wait 'till yer 30! You can put on a Stetson soon as yer old enough for mutton bustin' and wear that sucker for the rest of yer got-danged life!

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

I've got a beaver-skin U.S. Forest Service Stetson. It doesn't even fit, but it's so badass I can't part with it.

And being the southwest wearing a hat outside isn't really a choice, unless you like a sunburned scalp.

Gotta get some bill accessories. I was looking for something like a fishing hook but with roach clips but this works too(random Etsy listing):

My hat has a little version of itself for a logo

My hat that says 'SLUDGE' in a metal band font is just part of my personality! The other half is a Mountain Dew shirt.

[–] Sludge@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 hours ago

That's lit fam.

[–] shweddy@lemmy.world 8 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

I chose 2 actually
Faded old Yankee dad hat
Yankee snapback with oversized logo
And turning the visor to the back is old hat

[–] thethrilloftime69@feddit.online 4 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I started shaving my head at 23. Hats make my head sweaty and they're uncomfortable. Also the confidence to not wear a hat makes you stand out for a certain kind of woman.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 5 points 20 hours ago

I wear a hat because I don't like a sunburned scalp

[–] jambudz@lemmy.zip 2 points 17 hours ago

Either Jake the dog or things alien/cryptid conspiracists say (I KNOW WHAT I SAW)
