What about deer stalkers and fore and afts, I sometimes wear them and find them good, and my Swanndri Emler Fudd hat: -

I hate hats- thats why I have long hair, best insulater in the world! But I did make myself a bomber hat for that toasty feeling :)

Nowt wrong with flat caps apart from the fact that they don't protect your face, ears & back of your neck from the sun nor prevent rain from dripping down your collar.......mustn't mind either that when you take them off your flattened hair looks like it hasn't been washed for weeks.:rolleyes:.............nor smell too good ;)

Those last two complaints are pretty much the same for all hats.

Nice Hat Turbogirl, Somebody else who dares to wear an Elmer - I reckon there's a few but as British Red says we're Vewy Quiet about it. Is that Orac I see behind your left shoulder?

Will you join? :)

I suppose I owe a hat picture in penance.

Sheepskin "mountain cap" - keeps my noggin all snuggly in the cold - and ear flaps too :)

BR, I too have a sheepskin hat. Bought during a particularly cold drive through Aviemore in an old banger that the thermostat had gone in (heater didn't work). Was reading minus 14 in the car. Fantastically comfy and cosy. Great things.

I have many hats - but these are the ones that perform the best!
