    I love hats so much, and don’t understand why they aren’t more popular (apart from baseball caps, which I also enjoy)

    I’m gonna go ahead and blame schools for being so strictly anti-hat. Kids would get in trouble for wearing them. Head-coverings in general were forbidden unless they were religious in nature, so many kids never got a chance to get used to wearing them.

    It made me feel strange seeing so many kids’ shows with characters that wear hats all the time. Hats were like a forbidden accessory in my childhood, and now even though I’m out in the “adult world,” they feel too weird to even try.

      Can you explain what you mean “being anti-hat”? In my school they just had an issue with hats being worn indoors, which i think is reasonable.

      See you know what’s funny? In my early school years, hats were mandatory. I got bought a dorky thing that got me made fun of, and I hated it.

      I now have a complex where I feel weird about wearing hats.

      Which kind? We probably have a name for all or most kinds of winter hat but we don’t have any nationally dedicated “winter hat” to refer to - English is extremely succinct, we have specific words for almost everything

        You aren’t fully dressed until you’ve got your hat. Send me back a century its difficult to find good quality hats these days and the sizes are more generic.

          Oh lordy yes, I used to have a trilby that fitted me perfectly and got positive attention from the ladies, it was made in the '30s.

          When it eventually wore out they were fashionable, so all the vintage ones were expensive, and all the new ones were rubbish.

          I miss my trilby :-/

    I think the fundamental issue is that I’m a T-shirt kinda guy and nothing except a baseball cap goes right with a T-shirt. A lot of the other hats need something like a suit to make sense.

      I think you have to pick a hat type which fits your head shape, but I wouldn’t know how to do that. But I think a skinny face would be weird in a bowler hat for example.
