Wearing hat cocked to the side..

[retro50]

Wear my fedora slanted?lol lol lol lol lol

 

[D.W. Suratt]

To me a fedora feels more natural when I wear it slanted. Maybe that comes from watching to many gangster movies.

 

[Nathan Flowers]

Like the one in your Avatar? lol [huh]

Oh, that hat is straight. The head wearing it is crooked.

I prefer to wear my hats level, but without a mirror to check it out I typically will have a little bit of natural slant simply because I seem incapable of putting a hat on perfectly straight. [huh]

Still, I usually get it about right, even without a mirror (I have been begging my wife to let me put a mirror next to the door, so that I can check a hat right before leaving).

Although, I sometimes wear a slight slant for fun. Nothing dramatic, though.

Straight, no slant is much more to my liking.

My noggin must be warped. All my hats naturally tilt a bit to one side. I've been accused of doing it deliberately but I actually try to keep them straight.

Could be. Mine is. I always got accused of tilting my hat, too. Then a barber mentioned to me that the crown of my head was off-center. That rather did explain everything, why even when I sat a hat on center it would slide to the side during wear.

I finally gave in to anatomy and started wearing all my headgear rakishly canted.

That's me too. I prefer straight. Anything other than that is totally beyond my control.

Straight hat, tywistedbrim

I've got a Barmah leather hat, that if worn straight, has a most pronounced "pringles-like" curve to the brim that runs on kind of a diagonal. If I wear the hat twisted about 10 or so degrees to the right, the brim picks up more of a standard aussie-curve.

I've decided that my true hat size is 7-1/8 DOH (diagonal oval head).

 

[MattJH]

Not my thing.

 

[KatintheHat]

I've found that you can where a hat straight, and still give it an angle by simply flipping the brim up higher on one side and tugging the front down a little on the oposite side. It all just depends on the hat's attitude, and mine at the time.

 

[ortega76]

I think it looks awful. Anybody who wears their hat raked to the side is likely a man who tears tags off mattresses and throws rocks at windows.

Forgive the unshaven, glassy eyed appearance. I just finished a long day of tearing off mattress tags.

unless it's a baseball cap, then it's on straight. One thing I can NOT abide is these young whippersnappers running around with baseball caps with the bill flat, cocked up on their head and on to the side.Give me a well broken in Baseball cap, Bill properly curled and nice and tight fitting anyday!

As the Chairman of the Board, Ole' Blue Eyes, Mr. Frank Sinatra himself so eloquently stated, "Wear your hat cocked, angles are attitudes..." enough said.

Frankie hit the nail on the head. (P.S.- see avatar.)

I agree! Hip-Hop fashion is an oxymoron, and I do mean moron!

Don't forget the tags still attached.

The only way too wear a ball cap.

That was the biggest I had!!!

Zohar is the proud owner of the largest Johnnyphi fedora. If Zohar doesn't intentionally "cock" his hat, then this 7 5/8 Adam must be TOO SMALL to cover his giant brain!!!

Good Lord!

Cocked to the side is okay for her...

She can wear it cocked for sure... gtd

 

[Macheath]

Sure, angles are attitudes, but isn't 90 degrees an angle?

My head is a 7 1/2 and a cocked hat requires a size up, so most of mine go on flat.
