Nothing says cool like wearing one of these bad boys.
This would look really cute on me, I might try making one.
I have the Sombrero from the Movie “The Thing”. Cost me a small fortune but it absolutely the best real hat I have ever owned.
(I also have a pair of those Vuarnets too)
So big ups to Sombreros!
My head is just a little too big for 98% of hats I find in stores, so I sadly have never incorporated them into my wardrobe.
I have also successfully been staving off male pattern baldness pretty well, so my motivation is low.
Had the same problem - my advice: Buy the biggest size and stretch them carefully over the knee (grab edge and pull against the knee). There are also devices that stretch hats and caps (screw inside that expands two half round pieces of wood).
Don’t go without a hat especially when you’re balding - a lot of old men have skin cancer on the head.
It looks like a $20 investment in a hat stretcher would be a good investment.
Mine was custom made it took almost a year to get. They can tailor it to any size head if you’re interested.
Is it a felt hat? Honestly, I started looking into how to make those.
Yes its felted, mine is I think 80% rabbit and 20% beaver. I wish I had it on had I would get you a bunch of pics.
I’ll be around tomorrow. :-)
Its 700 miles away at my other house, sorry. I should be up there next weekend. I saved your handle, give me a week or so :-)
Looking forward to it!
You’re just waiting for that first scalp sunburn.
Everything changes then.
(I have a friend who was balding at 25).
Omg its an umbrella hat but LESS useful and also somehow sillier!!!
Amazing!
I love the guy who’s just given up laying on the ground like whatever. My eyes are still burning. This kinda sucks. How long is this drawing gunna take?
I mean, is your umbrella hat also a see through parasol?
One word: plastics.
Of course it’s from Wham-O.
They’ve had some classic hits that almost every human being has experienced, but I suppose it’s hard to get those without some comical misses, too!
That beach guy is gonna have a bright white face to go with that beach tan he’s working in (if this thing actually works). Also, the face of the other guy “at the game” is hilarious.
