Just occurred I've not seen this discussed here. One of my other hobbies is hats. Started wearing and collecting them somewhere around 4-5 years ago. I do fedoras, newsboys, berets, whatever. I have both new and vintage (quite a few of each), several brands but heavily weighted towards Stetson. Probably around 40 in all, with vintages starting in the 1940s or so, many from the 1950s.
Back a few decades, it was rare for a man to leave home without his hat. This changed slowly, but seemed to nearly reverse sometime in the late 1960s. So do any of you regularly wear or collect hats? If so, what brand/style/type do you prefer?
