Brussel Sprout Hat

This is a Novelty Brussel Sprout Hat 

A gift from Christmas last year

Novelty hats are always cheap and throw-away quality, they are fun for about a minute so don't want much, something people will recognise and something that stays on your head and in shape.

This hat failed, most people needed to be told it was a brussel sprout and it also needs a bit of pulling to stay in shape.

As was a gift no idea if this was cheap, I mean  £2 or £3 pounds, £5 would be way too much.

A Military Beret

 A friend used this beret as part of a Royal Air Force costume before being passed on to me.

The hat badge says RA which could be Royal Artillery not R.A.F., however, I can't seem to find a clear answer. 

The nearest I can find is WW1 badge

Naval Officers Cap

This Royal Navy Officer cap was gifted so not sure of its origin 

The crown is made from waterproof cotton and comes with a plastic peak

It also sports an embodied bullion badge on the front

Faces in a Hood

Hoods are great for hiding in

Retro Style Helmet

This a motorbikers helmet or perhaps horse riding helmet, maybe both, could not say for sure as it came to me free

The 2 tone leather with white stitching gives a retro styling, particularly if it's intended as a motorbiker helm. 

It would look good with a pair of goggles to finish the look.

I have a similarly finished hat, but that was more military styling and not well made enough to be proper protection.

 

Brown Felt Hat 2

A brown felt wide-brimmed hat with the brim sewn up to the crown on 2 sides 

I've posted this hats twin previously here both came from a batch of hats which were being sold £2

With the look of this hat and the padded jack, I'm wearing I'm sure it belongs to a medieval cannon crew 

Worn at an odd angle for the photos not sure why

Naval Beret

The dark blue beret is complete with Queen's crown naval officer's badge. 

Somebody said do you need a hat, well I could have said no I have plenty but then again 1 more why not.

Gifted from a friend.

Hat from Siam

This particular hat was from a set of theatrical hats being sold on eBay from a production of the King and I 

There is no label in the hat so it could be a courtier or one of the Kings children.

I think it makes an excellent oriental courtiers hat.
