Posted January 17, 2020 Have a ton of hats. Back in the day ,video productions gave out free baseball caps with either the company name or the title of the adult video on them. Also have caps bought at concerts with that evenings band logo on them and hats worn as part of the costume in mainstream movies. Yes,even publications I wrote for gave out caps. Have High school reunion caps as well as various union caps. (Yes,have a Trump hat,but I have been collection presidential campaign memorabilia of BOTH Democrats and Republicans since Kennedy vs Nixon...wonder what those buttons are worth today...even have an autographed Pat Paulsen campaign poster from 1968 ) 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, to find my old black hippie hat, stains and burn holes included!! But for a start musician that always wears a hat, here is a little ZZ Years ago I wore a variety of hats. I ended up settling on an Australian riding hat, whether I was on horseback or not. Had a few for show and a couple for the trail. I no longer wear hats, but will fully endorse "National Hat Day". There are times when I find a lady in a hat (or glasses, or both) to be quite sexy. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 17, 2020 I’m not sure I actually own a hat, wouldn’t be caught dead in a ballcap. Do have an extensive collection of helmets though - it seems like every adrenaline sport requires a different type of helmet. Luckily the helmet required for this sport rolls up and fits in a shirt pocket. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 18, 2020 I usually always wear a ball cap. I do like to see a woman wearing a hat. It doesn't have to be anything special. With it being cold, a pretty girl with a stocking hat comes to mind. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 18, 2020 I have a collection of hats: ball caps, fedoras, berets, sombreros, newsboy caps, etc. If I’m outdoors I am seldom w/o cover; a habit I picked up in the service. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 18, 2020 Don't wear one often. I don't shave my head anymore and I have nice hair. Shame to cover that up while I've still got it. But if I do wear one it's the only one I've got.

Posted January 18, 2020 When outside I always try to remember to wear a hat if I’m going to be out in the sun longer than 20-30 minutes....I will burn bad if I don’t. I have a variety of hats. An Aussie chiller hat that I soak for when I play golf, some baseball caps and of course a sticking cap or beanie while snow shoveling. I wore cowboy hats for probably 25 years. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19, 2020 I associate hats with work/function. My forehead started growing in my early 20’s. Took a bit to accept, then leaned in and shaved the whole dome. Hats became crucial to protect from my scalp from the sun and bumping/banging my head on obstacles. Tilley Outback hat for hiking, boating and kayaking, straw fedora for stepping out sharp and listening to Latin music, merino wool beanie for cold weather, wool driver’s cap for coffee shops and bookstores... I’ve learned hats are man accessories! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19, 2020 Considering how often I get to go to the skin doc and get the liquid nitrogen treatment, i'm never outside without a hat on. So I have a very nice collection of hats. Mostly fishing related ball caps, but also have a Tilley for fishing, and a really nice Akubra Banjo Patterson for when it's raining or snowing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 19, 2020 Always wear a hat when on horseback, it's heartbreaking when the wind blows it off and the horse steps on an expensive hat. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though it's been years, I've had that happen. Then I try to convince myself that it adds "personality" to the hat. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 20, 2020 I usually wear a hat when I go out due to my lack of protective hair on top. I either get cold or sun burned or since I live in Colorado maybe both without a hat. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
