POLL: Hats

Remove all ads!

Recently I decided that I need to make some hats. Browsing the internet I found oodles of websites about many different styles. Although not always necessary, a lot of people wear them just to make a personal statement. So I thought I'd post a simple poll to see where the people here fit in.

*note - you can choose more than one option on the second question

The only times I wear a hat are in the winter to keep warm (a knit cap) and in the summer to keep my slowly balding scalp from frying in the sun (a baseball-style hat).

 

I used to wear hats to keep my hair from looking too messy, but now I use the hood on my jacket for that.

The only other time when I need a hat is for sun protection for the few hot days in the summer. But I'm not sure what kind of hat style it really is. It just rings around the forehead, with a shading part that protrudes over the eyes.

 

We all have "bad-hair days" every once in a while, don't we? Some hats also look pretty good, and I use them quite often. At winter of obvious reasons, it can be pretty cold/windy at spring/autumn too, and at summer it's just a way to have some shade and style.

Should buy more hats; have three different ones ATM...

 

Hardly anyone wears caps or hats where I live apart from the teenage delinquents who tuck their trousers into their socks. In Birmingham if you wear a cap it means you are a dick.

 

Only when playing tennis and only when the sun shines.

 

I usually only wear baseball caps, but I also have a nice jungle camouflage hat that gives lots of shade in the summer.

 

I only wear hats when it is cold in which case I will generally wear a black toque.

 

I wear a black woollen Beanie with the edges rolled up for that casual 'wee thick hardman' look.

It used to be a black corduroy flatcap but they kept getting stolen (go figure).

I have the usual assortment of hats including hard hats, army camoflage hat, Russian grey hat, straw hat etc. but I think that the beanie is the only casual hat ugly enough to avoid being mistaken for a girlie 'fashion accessory' in day to day use.

 

Only toques during winter; and then only when it's cold enough.

It used to be a red, maple leaf shaped Canada toque. Now though, it's a great toque with my uni's colours (red, yellow and blue)...with a nice poofy yellow ball (aka "pom-pom") on the top.

I have three of them for the summer. A cowboy one, safari one and Panama. However, the safari one has got broken and the Panama one no longer fits on my head well after some heavy raining, not like the cowboy one is in a perfect condition, so I probably have to resupply soon.

 

I like hats but I don't wear them all that often. In the winter I crocheted a really cool one that had the look and colour of a tortoise. Hanging from under the brim I made a lot of dangley things that looked like dread-locks.

 

I only wear caps. I got a whole bunch of them, but you can of course only wear one at a time. My favourites are a "Golden State Warriors" cap, a gift from my friends when they visited the US, and of course my NY Yankees cap.

At work i usually wear a red and blue "Montreal Canadiens" cap.

 

I love hats, but only wear them in the winter. I have 2 favorites, one brown, the other purple -- they're like bowler hats, with turned up rims all the way around. However, when I lived down South, I did have a big floppy straw hat that I would wear out in my rose garden in the summer, but aside from that, it was just too hot most days to wear anything on my head.

 

Well, I have quite a collection of baseball caps, but the one that I wear most often is a black metallica cap. In the winters, that changes to a little black toboggan - think Leon from "The Professional"

Of course, I also have my lovely black felt cowboy hat, and my roughed-up straw cowboy hat. Black for everyday use in fall/winter, or for formal use, and the straw for everyday use in the spring/summer. It's all about being seasonal

 

I wear hats, well, quite often. At summer I wear a very, very broad black-transparent hat where I can hide from the sun and then I have two kinds of high hats, which I think are called toppers in english.
On the other hand I never EVER wear a cap. Makes me look boy-ish...

 

i cannot go out without wearing a cap. It really helps me avoid eye contact so i don't have to pretand happy and say hello to everyone i don't really know.

 

I have a few hats, and a toque with my old high school symbol. Mostly I wear my backwards hat when I am mowing the lawn. And when I have bed hair when I have to leave the house suddenly.

 

What's a toque?

I never wear hats, I look ridiculous with a hat on.
