I started wearing a flat cap around mid to late 2019
I’d been looking for a decent one for years and finally found one, so I wore it everywhere (still do)
The amount of dudes complimenting me, asking where I got it, etc. is wild. I think im Up to over 10 comments, which is insane for someone who’s never gotten any in public before
I wish I could wear something like that, but it’d make me feel pretentious. Not that I think people wearing them look or come off as pretentious, but for me it’d feel that way. I couldn’t pull it off anyway since my daily attire is a hoodie and jeans/joggers.
There are so many styles, patterns, and colors of caps under the very wide term of flat cap. I think the pretentious feeling is silly, and probably geographical. I have baseball hats, beanies, newsboys, whatever. It doesn’t have to be your thing, just a thing you have.
Growing up with that sort of stupid toxic masculinity no matter how dumb you realize it is… is just hard. Every fiber of your being screams to tell you no, don’t stand out, suck it up, what are you some kinda of douche?

What’s really wild is that it’s so abnormal for men to get positive comments on things that 10 comments in four years is “wild”.
I don’t want to be a downer though, so… nice hat!

I guess I’ve never considered myself that “posh” (not British but can’t think of a better word). Fair enough though might have to give it a try!
What’re you gonna do with that umbrella faaag?

As someone who’s daily attire is jeans, converse, tee, and hoodie: it comes down to the type and color, like the other guy said
My daily driver is a cheap one from a two pack off Amazon and people love it
Here’s the listing
