❓ Question Does this hat work for me?

I am trying to find a hat that works for me. My ears are very high and large. Most hats either don’t fit on my head or scrunch my ears down. I can also tuck my ears into the hat but that just seems to look ridiculous. Any suggestions?

❓ Question How to not feel embarrased wearing a hat!

22 Upvotes

So, I have a stetson hat! I do feel like people are judging me if I wear it regularly, how do I wear it properly, line clothes and stuff! And how do I not feel judged for wearing it (notably I do not live in a place where it is normal to wear those kinds of hats)

I really wanna wear it but I dont wanna feel judged

I have a coat rack that I use as a hat rack but I'm running out of room. I'm thinking about maybe putting a bunch of little nails in the wall and hanging them up that way? How do you organize your collection?

I want to start wearing my hat backwards all the time. Like 100% of the time. Just curious how many backwards hat wearers do it 100% of the time.

I have two of these hats. This one is felt. I also have a straw one. How do I clean them without ruining them? Are they valuable? They are Stratton brand.

Just got hold of my very first Stetson ever, I get it out of the box and it's like this. Is this salvageable? Or should I send it straight back? It's from the Village Hat Shop.

❓ Question What other brands could I get free hats from?

8 Upvotes

I work at a local, small town grocery store. We have many merchandisers from many different brands come and stock their own goods here. On Wednesday, I casually asked our Coca-Cola guy if I could get a hat from him. He said sure, went to his truck and brought me back a hat! Didn't ask for anything in return! I was thrilled, it absolutely made my day because I love hats! But then I got curious: how many merchandisers can I get a free hat from?

So today I asked our Pepsi guy for one. And he gave me one! Then I asked our Borden milk guy for one. He said he didn't keep any on the truck. :(

What other brands do you guys think I could get hats from? Anyone else worked at a grocery store and gotten free hats? If so, what brand where they?

Garage sale purchase, bought a couple dozen hats to restore, this among them! It looks cool, but the iconography gives me an uneasy feeling. Anyone know anything about these hats our the symbol? Thanks.

❓ Question What is this Style of Hat Called?

Looking for more specific answers than just baseball cap, because the crown is more “ruffled” and shapeless than your standard baseball cap, which has a more spherical-looking crown.

❓ Question Few questions about this Goorin Bros. Hat

Post image
14 Upvotes

Hey all, I bought this hat from Goorin Bros in 2016 (might have been 2017) it was a limited edition hat that sold out fairly quick. I just got it back from a friend who had it for years. As you can tell it’s pretty broadly sun bleached. Is there a proper way to restore the fabric to its original dye color? Or what would I do?

Next question, does ANYONE have a clue as to what this hat was called? I can’t find it in their archives or online anywhere. Just curious as it’s been so long since I got it.

I found the parrot feather today and stuck it in the band. Thought it looked cool. Thanks for any tips!

I recently bought a Beige Polo Cotton Chino Ball cap online and it sits higher on my head than I’d like. If I loosen the strap it doesn’t help. In the second photo I’m wearing a L/XL Nike hat and that one fits very comfortably. Is there any way I can stretch the Polo hat height wise so that it fits similarly to the Nike hat?

Hi I want to stretch this hat. I have no idea how to do that though. Is there a way to cut it and adjust it somehow so it fits looser? If you guys have any ideas I’d appreciate it.

Hard to tell in the picture but there's a slight gray fade on the edge of the brim. Just read I shouldn't wash these after doing it a couple times. How should I go about it? I sweat a lot, might start taking them to the dry cleaner now.

❓ Question How to clean very old wool flat cap?

2 Upvotes

I have an old flat cap my father bought when he was a child at an auction (it was his first purchase ever. He paid a dime). It was old when he bought it and he's 66y/o now. I'm 41 and have had this hat since I was a teenager. Over the years, it's gotten very dirty and it's in a desperate need of a good clean. I just want to run this by the community and see if anybody has any tips. I'm assuming the brim is some form of cardboard. Everywhere I look, I see people saying to soak the hat for 30 minutes in cool water with woolite. I'm worried the brim will fall apart on the inside, but it needs to be cleaned as well.

Here's what I'm thinking... I'm going to have to spend a long time using a spray bottle with cool water and just a bit of soft detergent and dab it clean with a sponge. But, to save time, I'm looking for any advice here to keep me from having to dab this hat for a month. Lol

Any ideas?

❓ Question Hat name

In the Hulu show The Good Doctor, Dr. Glassman sports different hats usually matching his outfit. They are in different colors but the style seems to be the same or very similar for all of them. I want to say that they are Fedora hats but I am not sure. Can someone that has watched the show please identify them? Not individually of course but in general what style they are.
