Show us your nasty Hat!

My Sunday church hat.

My lucky fishing hat, It's the only ball cap I have that was Made in the U.S.A.

That would be my working around the house hat. Don't have any "lucky" hats. If it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have any. I used to have a "lucky" t-shirt. I shot a lot of trap & skeet. It was getting pretty ragged. Moved several states away with a job move. I think the ex burned it or threw it out with the move. End of the adventure.
 
I see new caps in stores and such, that are sold with rips, and tears, same with Jeans so guess old nasty worn hats and jeans are now stylish?
 
Is it just me, or does Bill Bates look an awful lot like Hoss Cartwright in that bird hunting photo? :D:D:D

Sorry, had to yank your chain on that one! BTW, very nice shotgun, 20 or 28?

The Parker Reproduction is a 20 Gauge. I, like Hoss, do like my hats a little on the tall side.

I was told by my skin doctor after I lost my nose due to skin cancer I should be wearing a hat instead of my baseball caps. I do have a pile of each and know I should be wearing my hats but my main activity is riding the trails in our RZr. I couldnt keep a hat on 10 feet! On top of that its hot here in summer and I wear shorts. A cowboy hat just doesnt go with shorts on a fat 73 year old! I do have them though!
This kepi is one of my favorites. Bought it to keep my head when trail riding in turkey season.

 
So we all have one we just can't part with no matter how smelly, dirty, or torn. It just fits! This one drives my Wife crazy and to me it is just getting broke in!

I have several like that.In fact,im wearin my Navy blue cap now--has no cloth over the edge of the entire bil.

My eyes ait too good today, is that a Kepi? I always wanted one but figured idlook too weird wearing one--unless it was grey in color with a yellow band and crossed sabres on the front. :D
 
This hat was from the first Canadian fly-out fishin' trip with Kabeelos's in the extreme far west part of Ontario in 2000. It don't look too bad in this pic because it's new but it turned out to be my most favoritest hat I ever had and and I wore it until it was little more than a dirty rag with a frayed bill and no legible printing on the front.

I don't have any other pics of it but trust me, it was disgusting there towards the end. :eek: :D

Sometimes Miss Pam would throw it in the garbage when I wasn't watchin' and I'd go to put it on and couldn't find it I just searched all the trash cans until I found it. She finally got it in the big bag about a half hour before the guys in the big truck came around. I still mourn for it. See, when you get to be my age what something looks like doesn't really matter. It's how it FEELS that is important. ;)

Ringo, that hat is a stetson labeled "Tom Mix" on the inside. A western store was going out of business and I bought it for half price maybe 15 years ago in california. It doesnt look good on me. I had a "Challenged" nephew that loved everything cowboy. I was his guardian. My wife snapped this picture of me giving it to Matt in 2004. Unfortunately he died a few months later and I took it back. Also a picture of me poseing in it. I never had the nerve to wear it downtown. I bought the orange kepi at ace hardware a few years ago.



 
That Stetson is a quite nice looking hat.The Gentleman in the photo looks natural wearing it.:-)I HAD a black Cowboy hat at one time--but gave it away when i was in Germany back in 2000.I gave it to a 7 foot tall German dude who looked like a classic biker--but nice as can be. This guy ran an Antique store in Goslar--well,he looked better wearing it than I did.:D

Im still pondeing getting a "Hondo" hat.
