How do we get men to wear hats again?

Make them large enough to fit an actual adult human. I don't know WHY it was decided that we'd import all our heads from Lilliput, but that's the only explanation I can come up with for all the puny craniums I see.

Also, make hats COOL again- not in public perception, but in reality. What've we got now, in the zeitgeist of hats? Stetsons, fedoras, and the odd fez from a Shriner or time-traveling Arab. Bring back one of THESE babies:

The wings are articulated, so they flap as you walk

or these:

and we'll talk.

From what I have read, the American custom to wear headgear died down considerably due to President Kennedy's dislike for hats. And since he and his wife were considered fashion icons, other people wanted to imitate them.

[DishLady]

Some guys do, but the knit cap has overtaking mainstream society... making most guys look like Jughead in the Archie comics or Mickey from the Monkeys.

[SugarSugarplum]

Or Tim Pool

Hats are great, the problem is that incels somehow claimed a monopoly on fedoras therefore no one wants to wear a hat.

Getting men to wear hats again can be both fun and fashionable! It’s all about finding the right style that matches their personality and look. Start by reintroducing classic styles like fedoras or flat caps, which have timeless appeal. Encourage trying them on with different outfits to see how they complement the overall look. Sharing photos of style icons or celebrities who pull off hats effortlessly can also inspire interest. Making it part of an easy, everyday accessory can also help—pairing a hat with casual jeans, a t-shirt, and sneakers can look super cool. It’s all about making it feel natural and stylish, rather than something forced. What kind of hat styles do you think would catch on? 😊

Fashionista AmY well that's a good question I used to do pretty good with that style back in the '80s and early '90s used to get some compliments I do believe it is a style that can make a comeback I mean Justin Timberlake did okay with it and I think usher did too think he did

Only started to wear hats about 6 years ago again.

My preferred hats: Flat Cap, Newsboy Cap (No photo) and Bowler Hat. I would love to have a Top Hat too

[rachel776]

this is what we want

[Skinhead-1979]

@rachel776 I love my Peaky Blinders suit, but there sadly aren't enough occasions to wear it; I am not going to wear a £300 suit when I only go to town or the beach 😛

Picture 2 is what I usually look like if the weather is alright... if it is cold I need to wear more layers lol

[beefcakebradybatson]

I often wear a Detroit Tigers cap !!!

If there is an umbrella shortage or hoodie shortage that might drive up hat sales in men so that might be a good place to start. I’ll wear a hat & sing in the rain.

Baseball caps have become way too popular. If you want your guy to wear a hat, buy one for him. I'm sure most guys would be willing to at least give it a try.

[Skinhead-1979]

Here in the UK Flat Caps have made somewhat of a comeback; they sadly haven't replaced Baseball Caps, but you see them more and more. And people from all ages wear them (Teenagers not quite yet).

[Pudsmucker]

I would probably were a felt hat. I don't like baseball caps. Those are to me are not hats. I do also remember my grandfather were in a felt head every day. He had two hats one for his work the other one was for going to church and special events. That was back in the '50s and early part of the '60s. Hats need to be classy.

[FunkyMonkee]

I see men wearing hat all the time!! The problem is, they seem to always wear them backwards, for some stupid reason.

[HighValue]

I don't normally wear a hat because I like my hair and don't want to mess it up. I wear one if it rains instead of an umbrella, but it is just a baseball hat.

[RebelinSteel]

I wear one with work, I don’t tend to wear one when not working, especially if I’ve had one on for 12 hours lol.

[DrPepper12]

Good luck. JFK single handedly put thousands of haberdashers out of work at his inaugural

[Anonymous]

Date a cowboy. Because I assume you don't mean a baseball cap. Most guys don't want to wear hats because it's believed they can cause balding.

[jamesgoldman]

I don't know I have no issues there (6 hats, balancing that lot was I imagine how Carmen Miranda felt)

[strateguy632]

Don't. Hats are annoying in wind and a waste of money.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Pretty as you are I'm sure all you have to do is ask him too

[zagor]

My thinning hair is moving me in that direction, especially when out in the sun.

[beefcakebradybatson]

Let us lads don cowboy hats EVERYWHERE !!!

[eagle1951]

[OtterMan68]

Not gonna happen.

[Juxtapose]

I like straw hats.

[Ms_Facesitter]

Mine has a fedora!

[Xawyx]

Why would you? Some men just don't like hats.

[Luckycharms12]

[Dongie]

Go naked.

[Dongie]

You don't like my suggestion, I see.

Oh, well.
Try stapling them on.

[msc545]
