Speaking of hats. Is there a good guide around to figure out the right hat type for you? I'm at that age where despite baseball caps being common in my province, I'm not fully comfortable wearing one. But, I need a hat for when I'm being lazy about shaving my head. I don't want to be one of those dudes that wears a goofy hat and doesn't realize it.
I would suggest a nice flatcap newsboy which looks good on anyone, man or woman. You might even pull off a fedora. Both can be expensive. But you could get a decent flatcap at Wal-Mart for 9 bucks

A flat cap was what I had in mind, but I've seen them pulled off poorly many times. And I don't have any samurai swords or weeb pillows to go with the fedora.

I have a skullcap I wear when doing super dirty work I got from AEO 20 yrs ago. I wish they still made them. It's 100% cotton and looks a lot like this. Comfy, but makes you look like an Archies cartoon character or a crazy drug addict. Which isnt always a bad thing.

75% of my waking time I am grubby as fuck from working a dirty job. Looking like a Homeless person has its perks, panhandlers NEVER get in your grill and the Boy Scouts / Girls scouts hawking fund raiser shit outside of the grocery store fuck right off when I come out.

There are different types of flat caps, some wide, Some skinny, how you look in them depends on the shape of the face and head. Some are shitty because they are made with nylon that they picked up at the dollar store. Whatever you get, try to start with wool. Go to YouTube and search flat caps and there will be several tutorials on getting the right one for you. I've been wearing flat caps for 15 years and over that time I have accumulated literally dozens of them from various places in various shapes, made from various materials. Good luck

I never liked that hat style, it was the most annoying part of BDU's. This type was the greatest


Boonie hat was the best fucking part about being deployed, wore from the day we left til the day we got back. Sucks it wasn't part of the allowable stuff stateside.

Any hat that's not a baseball cap or a beanie makes you look exactly like this to me.

That dude really likes hats.

And yeah, the Tim Pool pic is exactly why I need to wear a hat when I'm not fully shaved. If anything, mine is worse.

It'd be amazing if Tim Pool interviewed libtards wearing the wool cap and then interviewed magas w/o the cap. Hes like two totally different ppl.

I mean of course he fucking wearas that wool cap like it fought off AIDS, it's so low on his head it's fucking touching his eyebrows.

What can I say? I like flowing outerwear I can wear over a jacket.
And it is pretty functional too; it's water proof (IE, it doesn't just absorb water and leave you drowned) so you can have it for those extra cold days.

That should come in handy when you're leaping off buildings, assassinating people.
