Hats

[02kpjw@gmail.com]

I use to wear a hatevery day to hide my balding head.  I had a total of 12 hates and I now have put away in the closet.  I keep around for when I am out in the sun for long periods of time.  What made me put my hates away    Simple, I took the plunge and joined the sly bald guy team.  I now have been hair free on my head for 3 months.  I grew a goote to keep hair on my face.  I think now that it has grown in, I am going to keep.
Take care all.
from a fellow sly guy - bald and happy with a gootee I am proud of and love to sport my look.

Thanks, guys.  I ordered a few more now that I know that the size was OK.

The committee will have to approve the others.   

That could create a dangerous precedent.

I love Ivy caps. I have a rather large collection. Looks good on you.

haha.. when I wrote that earlier, I was thinking of my Home Owner's Association.  Then when I got home, I had a letter telling me to clean my rusty driveway, sidewalk and pathway....again.

Well, just think about how you could end up looking if you turned all decisions regarding your personal appearance to someone else (and I don't mean your wife.  :)

haha... that would be scary.    But as far as the wife goes, I pretty much have her on my boat now... that last time she bought me some clothes, she actually bought me three v-neck t-shirts in three different shades of grey.  I was very impressed.  She knows me pretty well by now.

I wouldn't say it was bad.

Thanks.  It was looking a bit unruly from driving around with the top down. The same thing happens when I'm on the motorcycle.

looks good dude... I'm not a huge fan of hats, only a wooly one in winter, but it does seem to suit you lol

I wear an Indian Motorcycle flat top hat in the cool/cold weather.
Do-rags in the Summer when out in the sun.

Hats are back!  Get a Panama and listen to the complement's'  from the girls.  I never go out with a Panama Hat in the Summer or an fur felt Fedora or Outback Hat in the winter

Razor...hat looks great!  I have had that "self conscious" feeling also about wearing a "non baseball" hat. I did not wear a hat as I was thinning (didn't realize I was so thin until I got badly burned playing golf once) & now have sun damage on the top of my head. So, now I need to wear a hat. I have one like Razor's and feel great in it. And I have a washable "Tilly Hat" with a wide brim that's casual for garden, pool, beach, etc.  But, I'd like to wear something more "stylish" also and I am still somewhat self conscious about that.  I have a summer straw panama hat, but find it "too" formal sometimes. This year I bought straw "Lifeguard Hat" at Orvis...big wide brim...love it & had compliments. Maybe this winter I will actually wear the Stetson 4X Beaver felt hat I purchased from Eddie Bauer 30 years ago (it's still in the box) & needs to be broken in, or the authentic Russian black rabbit fur hat with flaps.

I used to wear baseball hats ALL the time before shaving my head. Now that I've got a slick dome, I get headaches from wearing them. Can't figure it out?!?! I do wear stocking hats in the winter and they don't bother me. I do have a newsboy hat I'll wear occasionally and it doesn't seem to hurt my head.

That's a nice looking cap.  I am a big fan of those caps, as I have several.  Ironically when I had hair, I always wore hats, from ball caps, to fedoras, to driving caps such as yours. 

Ever since I shaved my head though, I rarely ever wear them, even down here in Southern California when it gets really hot during the summer.  Instead I tend to wear a bandana, with a backwards snapback cap over it.  But that tends to be more for look then protection.  I typically wear that when I haven't shave my head for a few days or as part of my overall biker gear.  The bandana as well serves as a function to protect my head when I wear my motorcycle helmet.
