    Harry Truman sported an assortment quite jauntily. After all, the man was a haberdasher.

    Which Presidents Wore Hats>?

    Obama in a cowboy hat... Acceptable. Obama in a stingy brim... Unelectable. As someone mentioned... In the past, you weren't a man without a hat. Now it says more than it ever has. It's become more fashion than function.

    Hats on TV

    I'm a L&O junkie and see lots of hats on those NYC streets. Until I aquired one, I didn't realize that Steven Hill (Role: D.A. Adam Schiff) wore an Irish walking hat. It made me appreciate mine more.

    Longhairs & Fedoras

    I'm an old hippy. I get a wild hair, up you know where occasionally, and I cut it all off. I haven't cut it in over two years now (except for split-end trims) and it's about down to my nips, these days. And, I seldom tie it back. It's why I prefer WIDE brim fedoras. I literally live on the...

    The Borsalino Bellini

    The same can be said about any hat made these days. HATCO ring any bells? I didn't think that Borsalino had fallen that far. It's why I asked. :)

    Show off your Porkpies

    I know... Gene Hackman was brilliant in, "The French Connection." But, he looked like an idiot in that Porky Pig hat. I could not wear one if my life depended on it.
