"I began to wear New Yorker-style fedoras and when traveling, in my suit and hat, I can't tell you how many stewardesses commented favorably on the look and many would mention fond memories of their father and other gentlemen wearing hats. . .they really like the ‘look.’ "

Hats are a real finishing touch for men. I have pictures of my dad from the '50s, wearing the wide ties and the fedoras. I believe he wore his hats through the early part of the '70s.

Hats are good for women, too. I see great hats on people in the Walmart on Sunday afternoons. Baptist churches usually have service at 11:00 a.m., lasts until 12:30 or so, and then they go out to lunch. By 3:00, they’re in the Walmart, still in church clothes, picking up the last few things for supper.
