Yes? No? A different cap?

FYI: I wear this style of cap all the time.

If you like it and can afford it and will use it, then buy it.

Usually if I’m thinking about buying something optional, I wait a day or two and think about it. It may or may not depend on how much it costs.

I’ve ordered a different cap, but I like this one, too.

I love having first world problems.

No, it looks stupid.
Buy a Trilby instead.

If it makes you feel any better my love of socks is much greater then your love of caps. They are cheap and make me happy. So buy the cap.

Loli, don’t be an ass.

John, brilliant!

A few years ago my uncle bought a 1996 Miata. You are managing your mid-life crisis well.

edit :: I hope that didn’t sound bad. It wasn’t my intent. It is your money and a 20 dollar cap that makes you happy is a good thing.

If you bought a yacht I would be giving you real shit.

@Hawaii_Jake I like the cap. I’d get it. Sharp:)

John, I’m past the crisis. Have you seen Ferris Beuller’s Day Off? Yeah, that. (You cannot offend me, friend.)

si3tech, very sharp.

@Hawaii_Jake :: I saw Ferris Beuller’s Day Off at a drive-in. I am old.

The drummer is my old boss and a friend of my sister’s (that is how I got the job) He has a similar cap.

Caps! Caps for sale! Ten cents a cap!

We should all be wish list buddies. Sometimes things go on ridiculous sale which makes it easier to justify impulse buying. I got a mermaid-tail blanket yesterday for $8, as opposed to $35. Wearing it now.

I’m a pretty-pretty mermaid!!

@Seek I loved reading “Caps for Sale” to my kids.

Seek's avatar

@janbb – it’s one of the great children’s books, I think. I always wanted a stack of hats so high it would encourage a troupe of monkeys to play with me.

LOL. $28 in xl.

Seek's avatar

I’ll keep my eyes peeled. When I’m working basically all I can do is shop… so I have time. Haha.

The other problem with that particular cap is the extra large does not appear to be a true extra large. It said xl/xxl. I would not buy it.

Hawaii_Jake's avatar

Guess what I got in the mail! Free money! I got a check for over payment on a bill for $25. Perfect! I will buy the cap.

Earthbound_Misfit's avatar

I think it would suit you a lot. I can imagine you wearing that cap. Buy it.

Stinley's avatar

I like the cap. Very maritime in my opinion. Buy the cap.

I bought a metal phone holder/charger cable that’s bendy but stays put (like a bendy desk lamp). I don’t need it but I like it and it was £4.

For what it’s worth, I was inspired by your choice and was swayed to buy this one instead. I think it will be perfect to wear for paddle boarding/boating this summer. Hat tip to you! ;)

@ragingloli I disagree and think he should buy this one instead Thankx to our President, the fashion trend will come back like a boomerang.

Go for it, though in strong sunshine I prefer something with a wide brim like this

cazzie's avatar

Get a linen one like what Seek linked to. It’s much nicer than a cotton khaki.

@flutherother that hat looks like what the guys use on the mountain in New Mexico. Very smart for working in, but not nice to be walking around town in.
