“A hat should be taken off when you greet a lady and left off for the rest of your life. Nothing looks more stupid than a hat.”
P. J. O’Rourke
I could never stand wearing a hat or ballcap. As a kid I got plenty of grief growing up on the farm by everyone.
The marxist next door always wears a hat of some kind.
Ya PJ - about as stupid as skin cancer. Try going to the docter every six months to have things cut off your head! More hats = less skin cancer.
O’Rourke you are an a$$!
I’m walking quite often in all kinds of good and bad weather. My hat of choice is a traditional western hat, natural fur or treated to resist rain and snow.
The wide brim also blocks the sun from my eyes and gives some shade.
Indoors the brim redirects that dang overhead air conditioning that never turns off. It’s relief from opresdive overhead lighting as well.
It’s not a matter of style O’Rourke you boob. It’s a matter of form following function.
