Meh...honestly I wonder if it really was a dirty look. Why would someone give you a dirty look for wearing a hat? Maybe his eyesight is poor and he was having trouble seeing that far. Maybe your hat reminded him if someone he misses. Maybe he wants a hat like that but was timid about asking you...
People look and sometimes even stare when I'm wearing a hat. I doubt it's a negative thing like some folks fear though. I've never seen anyone roll their eyes or point and giggle. I've never heard an insult. I did; however, have one man walk up and ask my where I'd bought one of my hats and how...
Just want to +1 the comments about not trusting manufacture sizing. We all know the stereotypes about Asian people generally being smaller than US/European people. I recently bought a hat made in Vietnam that is size "large". Well, their large is our medium. The hat is supposed to fit up to...
What the hey, I'm a little late to the dance but I'll chime in with my opinion in case it can help anyone at all. Let me first get the negative out of the way: Yes, pith helmets are historic and bring to mind British colonization and safari adventures, etc. but that's not a legit reason in my...
All very helpful, informative replies. Thanks all!...or should I say Y'all.
Yes, I have a decent umbrella. Definitely good to keep it handy.
My G.I. ACU boonie handles extreme heat and rain quite well, FWIW. But wearing it in everyday situations is, IMO, a bit like wearing a pith helmet around...
I wasn't planning to wear the hat in the rain, really. I'm concerned with getting caught by surprise where I end up getting the hat a bit wet before I can get out if the rain. Thanks for the helpful info too! I'll check into it. I've heard poly hats can be hot in the sun. Any solid truth to that...
I feel so cheated! (rant ahead)
I live in Houston, Texas where the summer weather can go from sunny and 95 degrees to a pouring thunderstorm within 30 minutes. I've been shopping for a hot weather hat that has a little class but can stand getting caught in the rain. Sure, I have a couple of...
Of that's the style I'm thinking of, I call them "I Love Lucy" dresses and let the record show that those are the sexiest dresses to ever grace the female form. I've been trying to find some that I really like to get for my wife. Women don't wear dresses enough anymore, in my opinion.
My dad has worn Aramis since the 1960's. I have a bottle of Aramis after shave that I sometimes wear when I want to turn into a werewolf or scare away metro-sexuals. Aramis is probably one of the most masculine scents ever bottled. I may just have to give that Lab Series a shot.
I've been exclusively using Nivea products for that last few years. Their shaving gel and or cream is very smooth and works great, but the best product they have out is their post shave balm. It's the only after shave product I've found that doesn't burn or sting when I put it on. I know some...
I'm a fairly recent (1 year) transplant from Anchorage, Alaska to Houston, Texas were it's typical to see upper 90's and low 100's temperatures in summer. My body has not completely acclimated to this new climate yet so I get overheated if I don't take precautions with my wardrobe. During the...
Hi gang! I'm new here and have been a periodic lurker at FL for a few years. This is my first post here. Anyway...
I used to absolutely HATE hats! I never wore hats unless it was a safety issue and then I couldn't wait to get it off my head! Eventually, I joined the Army and they made us wear...
