Do you wear hats or caps?
they can serve as fashion or function, but some people just don’t do hats or caps because it messes up the hair. i love hats and caps, but always make sure to keep brush handy when i have to take the “chapeau” off.
what hat or cap makes you? is it style or function? do you wear it to cover up a bad hair day? keep warm? style and profile? because job requires it? just because it looks really cool on you?
why do you wear that hat?

Only if I’m really cold and need better peripheral vision than is afforded by my usual hood. I don’t wear them as any sort of fashion accessory. As a side note, I am deeply offended by flat-brim caps. Not only because they are so pointless, but because people invest so much importance in the curvature or lack thereof of the damn bit of carboard stuck on the front.
i love hats and caps. back in the day, people would say, why do you wear hats and caps all the time—you have a nice head of hair.i just like the look, you know?
@Jayne i know what you are referring to. i feel ya!
I never do. I just don’t think they look good on me. Plus I have long hair and I just have never figured out what to do with my hair while wearing one and still have it look fashionable. Now on really cold winter days I’ll wear a cap.
Now I think hats are awesome and wish they would come back in style :) I mean the women’s caps when I say that that are thought of as more “old fashioned”.
Hubby wears baseball hats for “fashion” reasons.
I’ve worn the same hat to school and work every day for the last three years…so yeah, I wear hats.
I have a trucker hat with a peace sign hand on it for when I’m at one of my save-the-world events.
I have three of these type hats. The one in the picture is for when it’s friggin cold outside. I have a grey and neon green one that my grandma made that I’ll wear if I’m not digging what my hair is doing, and I have a zebra one that has ears and a yarn mohawk and stripes. I wear that a lot.
Neither. I can’t stand anything on my head.
@J0E describe the hat. do you have a certain connection to it? because i also have hats or caps that i have had for years and always wear from time to time.
I wear baseball hats. I own a Phillies hat, Mariners hat, and a Dodgers hat.
@J0E I love when guys have an attachment to a hat or hoodie as long as it’s not super dirty. It always has a backstory.
@charliecompany34 @rangerr
It’s a Boston Red Sox hat. I’m not even a fan of them but I got it on a trip to Boston and it fit so well that it replaced the Tigers hat I usually wore.
I’m actually asking for the exact same hat, but for the U of Michigan, for Christmas.
in my neck of the woods, you are being different when you wear a brim or a true hat. in other regions, it is the norm, but to wear a distinct “brim” hat, you must be either, what they call: “bougey” or i guess “stuck up.” (somebody please help me spell “bur-jshwa”) the spelling escapes me even tho i had two years of high school french.
@jaytkay thanks for knowing what i was trying to say.
Earmuffs work for me. My thick hair keeps the rest of my head warm.
@charliecompany34: bourgeois or bourgeoise?
I love hats but I think I look ridiculous in them. A baseball cap on a guy makes my <3 melt.
Hardly. Most of the places I go, it’s either inappropriate or against a rule to wear a head-covering object. In fact, my school doesn’t even allow us to bring the hoodie whether or not we are wearing the hood.
Only if I’m having a very bad hair day and just a baseball cap then. I actually look good in most types of hats, but I always feel a bit awkward or conspicuous in them. I think you have to have a certain something to carry them off and, whatever it is, I don’t have it.
@sjmc1989 come to Alberta. I think it’s illegal here for men to not wear ball caps everywhere. Caps are a topic of intense conversation to our men. I also like earmuffs and I know the story about the heat flying out of the top of my head.
@faye I would be in heaven, I’m taking the next plane out! I haven’t worn earmuffs since I was 5 I would like to get a really cute pair maybe they are more my style than hats.
I like hats like these and have knit far too many of them. (Useful use for sock yarn if you don’t want to knit socks!) If it’s not 110 degrees outside, they are comfy enough to just throw on my head and not worry about how my hair looks. It’s awesome. Also, since sock yarn is usually mostly wool or alpaca, it is warm, too.
I also knit a hat like @rangerr‘s out of mostly wool, so it is warm and comfy.
I only wear bucket hats when it is sunny and I’m going to be outside a lot.
I like hats like this and this, knit side to side and with interesting construction. (For a while there, the second pattern was my go-to for every hat I knit—extremely mindless and makes a great-looking hat.)
I wear a hat when we walk the dogs in the morning because the damned flies like burrow into my hair and it drives me crazy.
I wear a hat when I run to keep the sweat out of my eyes.
Actually I often wear a hat just for the fun of it and to keep my head cool.
I have been collecting hats for a long time. I just got a Yankees hat when they won the series. I usually get a new one from each of the tennis grand slams each year. And I have collected them from all my travels. I used to do the same with t shirts but now there are too many so I am more selective.
@Milo, you wear that hat with such flair!
She says with such modesty.
@rooeytoo: Milo here; I use that pic for my head shot on the Vet’s website. I am truly the fairest of them all in that office.
Never, I hate it. It messes up my hair.
Unless it’s like minus forty seven outside, I don’t ever put anything on my head.
