Anyone have one? I think that they look cool and was wondering your thoughts before bought one.
Anyone?

    I'm a hat guy myself, but bowler hats were just something I couldn't get away with

    A bowler? LOL. Might as well wear a beret. I like a hat that blocks the suns rays from my eyes. But that's just me. LOL. They do have a distinctive look. And you'd be unique. Not like the fedora wearers we've seen for the last few years. Is the recent fedora fad over yet? Not a fedora fan. Not a fan of guys who wear their hats indoors either. I've done it myself on occasion but only if my crazy bad unruly hair underneath would have been more of an offence to those around me. LOL

    I like the kind of hats Eric Ehat wears... They look cool but you need an honest person (wife) to tell you if they work well with your melon shape. If ya get my drift. Unfortunately, hipsters have ruined it for a lot of people. Good luck and when you decide, we need a pic!!

    I tried on a bowler once. Didn't like the look, but it really depends on the shape of your melon and mug. I love hats, though. My favorite I ever tried on was this top hat I found in Kentucky. It's hand-carved solid wood! Didn't buy it though... it was priced at like $500.00

    How about a fez? Fezes are cool.

    We're all quite mad here. It was pretty heavy, but amazing how it was made. It was one piece of wood.

    Google "Lord Bowler" from The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.
