This is probably my coolest hat.


That hat is the gnar-gnar.
Thanks y’all. It’s been fun.

Aussie bias, but have always enjoyed the Passport trucker caps, nice shape with really good breathability.

I prefer a mellower concave on the bill, not to flat not to steep, somewhere in the middle.
I also stay away from red top caps… shits bad news

Carhartt caps were my favorite but they seem to have changed. My new one seems deeper and the material feels thinner. Disappointing, now I can no longer say I have a favorite hat.

Make sure to please pass the hat on when you’re done with it. Done for you might not be done for someone else.

Sounds like you like a (II) or (III) shape.
Thanks y’all. It’s been fun.

I’ve found my love in FTC camp hats, but only the canvas ones.

I tried a tweed one and it’s so over sized I like ridiculous

Solid hat you got there. Sorry I didn’t say so earlier.

Better loose than too tight! Like trucks.

Tight trucks are like wearing no hat on a hot sunny day: completely useless and bad form.

Thanks pal.

I was wondering if anyone knows the name of the hat john Lennon has?

Which also makes me think I know who has the best hat in skatebloarding. It's that guy who skates with Ritchie Jackson to redemption song.

I can't remember his name rn and I feel like a dick about it. That dude is sick

Quick update. This antihero hat was made for a child. I have to wear it with only the last snap attached, and it makes the back this weird upside “V”.

My head is huge, I guess.

Still love the hat though.
Thanks y’all. It’s been fun.

A hat thread was the thread we needed and didn't know.
Sir, I'm going to politely, but firmly, ask you and your common sense to leave this establishment.

There’s a weird RVCA Quiksilver outlet near me. They have some good cheap unstructured strap backs that you can easily remove the brand labels off of with a seam ripper and put your own patches on.

I know this isnt very helpful but I remember there was a company that had a kickstarter to make helmets that looked like a hat. Unfortunately (for some) it looks like a five panel. I dont mind five panels but its worth looking into if theyre still around

As corny as they are, those hats the creature guys wear are likely the best at actually protecting you from the sun…

You mean like the Cody Lockwood look with the big brim? If so, that could be a whole lane. A skateboarding Sia or Marlon Brando from Dr Moreau could really go
