Back in the mid '80's, I had a couple hats I wore.

Fedoras

Like Clark Kent wore or Al Capone era gangsters.

The older people thought I looked dashing and respectable.
People my age saw me as being VERY confident.
(I guess it took some confidence to wear them, but when I was wearing them, it sure gave me a lot more)
I'd wear them tilted to the side and forward a little.

The ladies loved them.
At a party, the hat would make the rounds, where all the girls would want to wear it for awhile.

My favorite one got swiped one night, at a party, where I got hammered. Didn't know it was gone until the next day.

The other one got damaged.

Aw, cool! I wish I had save my dad’s fedoras for my son. We still have my granddad’s bowler hat.
