[Like the hat?]

Still better than the backwards and upside down visor look from a few years back.

I wish I looked good in a hat.

I saw a guy wearing a du-rag under a fedora with a Naruto headband around it.

[Izick]

I don't care.

Exactly.

You don't need to look good. Just wear the damn hat and be happy with yourself

 

[G-Fex]

So basically, if we alter the atmosphere in such a way that all light suddenly makeseverywhere look like an Instagram filter on earth, we'll look awesome in fedoras.

I thought he meant it only looks good on 30 something caucasian males Actors

 

[R2D4]

In college my friend thought he was Indiana Jones so he wore a stupid hat and leather jacket and tan slacks everywhere. I don't know what goes through these peoples minds.

 

[Izick]

What about the correlation between douchebags and flat-brimmed baseball caps with stickers left on?

 

[NoirVisage]

lol saw this on a friends fb this morning:

Should you wear that fedora? <- tumblr

that's not real. can't be. it just can't.

 

[zethren]

Some day, when I'm old and distinguished looking, I'll try wearing a Fedora.

Try.

Ya, I wish I looked good in hats too.

The only hat I come close to looking good in is the "Castro" style.

 

[Mike M]

Alright, because I'm morbidly curious:

This is me in a hat, sans glasses.

What say you, GAF?

How about " I'm so doing this to fuck with other people's heads"? It's part of why I enjoy them

Are you trying to say that those two nerds would look awesome with different lighting?

 

[Like the hat?]

You don't need to look good. Just wear the damn hat and be happy with yourself

But if I don't think I look good I wouldn't be happy

You have my allegiance, good sir

 

[BigJonsson]

lol...

 

[Malvolio]

Same. I'm actually not much of a hat person, but I'll sport the above mentioned hat (don't know what it's called), or a tuque.

I'm with you. Don't wear hats much anymore, but that style (always heard it called an Irish or flat cap) is something I enjoy wearing on cold or windy days.

 

[ohhthegore]

i have some bad news for you

 

[remnant]

Unbelievable, everywhere I go, there's at least one nerd with a fedora.

I feel the need to call them out sometimes.

And say what? How dare you wear a fucking hat?

 

[saltinekracka]

Man, these things look bad. But hey, wear what you want if it makes you happy.

 

[Woody Invincible]

Can you instagram the pic to see if it makes an improvement?

why'd you post a pic of ryan gosling?

 

[BigJonsson]

Now thats a hat

 

[Mistake]

I think I could pull one off. The problem is getting the rest to match, and I'm not going anywhere that important. I wish I was.

 

[FeedMeAStrayCat]

But if I don't think I look good I wouldn't be happy

I definitely differ. I find it quite more amusing and enjoyable to wear stuff that's not the norm. I'm just assuming I don't look good in it, but that's fine. It's just enjoyable "peacocking" every once in a while. Or all the time.

That's cool, just not for me generally. I don't care if people want to wear whatever they want to wear. Unless they are backward and upside down visors or mirrored sunglasses on the back of their heads. I guess what I'm saying is I fucking hate Guy Fieri.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... did you keep the receipt?

 

[sky]

 

[NoirVisage]

this made me laugh much more than it had any reason to.

 

[Forkball]

I see nerds try and rock this shit way more to try and hide the fact they're nerds. Nothing funnier than seeing this dude in a bar or club.

Fat guys wear this a lot. Remember on the Simpsons when Homer became obese and he said "I've got to put on my fat guy hat"? It was similar to that one.

But fedoras are very hard to pull off, especially considering the only real modern exposure we have to it are historical photographs and things like film noir. They shaped our perception of the type of people who wear fedoras (weary middle-aged men with leathery faces and a smoking habit). Another big one is that fedoras weren't just worn with a t-shirt, it matched the outfit. However, even if people do try to match the outfit and fedora, it just comes off as trying too hard. A lot of suits are probably not even custom made, and man it was a revelation when I had my first custom suit. It's amazing how well it fit compared to something off the rack.

 

[FeedMeAStrayCat]

I fucking hate Guy Fieri.

Amen

 

[NinjaFridge]

Maybe he just liked that style and didn't give a shit about impressing strangers.

 

[Mike M]

Hmmm... Not so much

 

[I'm an expert]

Maybe he just liked that style and didn't give a shit about impressing strangers.

This line of thinking is unacceptable.

 

[Sol..]

Now I'm curious to see if you all think I can pull off this hat:

I know a nerd on campus that wears one of these 24/7. It fits him so well, I now consider it part of his head.

 

[FeedMeAStrayCat]

Maybe he just liked that style and didn't give a shit about impressing strangers.

Whew, I thought intelligent GAF was in short supply in this thread.. You and one or two others have turned it around

 

[SMT]

Alright, because I'm morbidly curious:

What say you, GAF?

Goes well with your attire, and matches your accessories, further given your context, it's a perfect fit.

 

[Woody Invincible]

Hmmm... Not so much

Actually, it did help.

And thus concludes our experiment. If it is a cloudy, dreary day, go for it.
Or dark.

 

[Amagon]

What does GAF think of driver's cap?

 

[Like the hat?]

Why do they always look so small on people? Is it just a matter of custom vs off the rack?

 

[UrbanRats]

What about Fedora's on nerdy chicks?

"Down with Prince John!"

 

[vitaminwateryum]

Goes well with your attire, and matches your accessories, further given your context, it's a perfect fit.

This is the kind of logic that everyone else wearing fedoras must have.

Hint:

Spoiler

Unless you're a private detective in the 40's, there is no right context.

 

[Alucrid]

I like these threads more when I don't participate in them

 

[spiderman123]

Some ppl look good in fedoras, most however don't. It takes a certain swag and look to pull it off

 

[Ra\/en]

Alright, because I'm morbidly curious:

What say you, GAF?

No. Sorry.


well... Maybe. At least you are dressed well.

 

[Borgnine]

I mean I put as many filters as I could think of and this is the best it gets, let this be a lesson to you.

 

[Ovid]

Haha, very true.

 

[Exterminieren]

Maybe he just liked that style and didn't give a shit about impressing strangers.

Are you trying to tell me that people exist who don't prioritise impressing GAF?

This is dangerous talk.

 

[JeTmAn81]

It doesn't work. At least the hat matches the shirt pretty well, though.

this totally reminded me of the Jesus fresco
