That's pretty terrible. I like to think they usually make up for offerings such as that. Their ties are lovely and their women's shoes and jewelry, but sheesh - - that hat has some answering for.

Forgive my ignorance, but are they referring to the mutilated marsupials perched on those two unfortunates' heads, or are the hats under said creatures?

cross between a sock puppet and a sweater.

Some wild chinese joke with a factory of left over sweaters, and a line of sock puppets combine and what do you have a new hat for the yankee market. Warm perhaps , but so is my mounted police fur hat but i dont wear it outside except when it mighty cold minus 20 and the human ears might fall off from under my fedora. My fifteen year old daughter has whipped up hats with more style on her singer sewing machine. 59Lark.:eek:

I know we are supposed to talk down on these hats (at least that is the consensus above), but I can think of a good thing about them. They do have a strange "trendy" sort of look to them. I don't go in for trendy very often, but I have to admit they do look a bit trendy.

These would go well with jeans and a 25 year old body. :)

I have jeans but not a 25 year old body and I would wear the hat that the guy is wearing if I was somewhere the temps are really low. I don't like the ear flappy things on the other hat. lol

Granted, they're not vintage hats, but I think they're sort of interesting (though I wouldn't pay what they're asking for them). And Warm and they're not made of dead animals.
;)
