Knitted beanie hat

This hat was a Christmas present hand made by Julie made this

This hat is possibly my most worn winter hat, its just comfortable.  This hat is very warm ideal winter wear while at the same time the lets your head breath so it does not feel sweaty. The only time it fails is in the wind which it offers no protection against, its also obviously not water proof.

Here is me wearing the hat at the Black Country Museum in Dudley

And again while walking just as the snow started.

Steampunk Top Hat

This my steampunk mad hatter top hat

Top hats can also be known as Beaver hats, High hats, Cylinder hats, Chimney Pot hats or Stove pipe hats, however I would definitely call this one a TOP hat

Its got a leathery oily feel to the fabric, size 59 which is bit big (by 1 size) for my head, lucky for me my ears keep it up well.

I think this hat will need a slightly insane character in my larp adventures to wear it.

Hard Hats = Hats stiffened in some way so they are no longer bend, this may be through steaming, pressing or adding a rigid material.

New Hat Blog

Its a while since I blogged and I decided that I should do one on all the hats I own, then I thought why not a new blog about my hats, so here I go.

I will post a picture of me in one my many hat every week, never the same hat until I run out of hats which should take me to around 2017 with the hats I have at the moment, after that who knows.

PS I will also include other head gear as well as hats.

This bowler hat purchased today from a car boot sale, made in the UK
