Hats and Baldness...settle a dispute for me.
I read a very convincing article that said it's pretty much genetic, you inherit your hair type from you mother's side of the family. So, if you maternal grandfather is bald you're out of luck. Or, to put it another way, you're genetically pre-disposed to wearing hats! It could all be... -

Akubra Fed: Carbon Grey
I ordered the same hat a few weeks ago from the same firm but they'd run out of the Carbon Grey in my size. I was impressed with their service though, they offered me the Federation Deluxe in Graphite Grey for the standard Federation price. A bit darker than I wanted but a bargin! Having... -
Books on Hat History, Styles?
I'm about 100 pages into that one at the moment and it's very good, but it's mostly a social history of why people stopped wearing them! On the whole it's a very interesting read, with a very entertaining and engaging style, but there are no pictures at all. Hope that's of use!
