Hat example.

I'm looking for this but crossed with a rasta style hat. I've seen them before, sort of brim thing similar to the above, but with a big bit at the back to fill with hair. They're popular with the sort of Indie kids who wear suits and trilbys but have bigger hair.

No I'm not turning into a wannabe indie fashion kid, just I want a more public friendly hat.

Is the 'bill' part of the hat stiff? Sortah like a baseball cap but.... not....? if so theenn.... I can go raid my brothers room and figure out what brand his are for you....
Usurper MrTeapot
Nope, just thick with material so it looks it. Padded perhaps?

*knows nothing about various hats*

I *believe* you're looking for a Tam? Worn by Rastas and those with dreadlocks because it actually keeps the dreads neater and tighter?

Like this?

*edit* Sorry I couldn't find a better picture because I'm short on time today but I'll have a proper search for you when I get back later this afternoon. smile.gif

Something like that. I see them a lot made out of cordoroy.
Daria
Do you mean the sort of hat which Zane Lowe wears quite alot? But not knitted?

Sort of a mix between a Tam and a baseball cap?

Edit- One of these? ->
Usurper MrTeapot
That be the one. What is it?
Daria
I haven't a clue! biggrin.gif

I put in a search engine "tam cap hat" and thats what it came up with, on this bizarre Japanese online shop.

I'm sure you can buy them in just about any skate shop.
Usurper MrTeapot
Ok, thank you.

I'll have a look next time I'm in place where one would go to if one wanted to buy some skategear.
Daria
He he he... A skate shop?

Sorry. I am rather excited by a band which should be hailed as genii.

ROCK LOBSTER!

That's right. the B52s. I bet they'd know what that hat was called.l
Daria
Did you ever find yourself one, Mr T?
Usurper MrTeapot
I went looking for one, and scouted several shops in Camden. But one feels silly trying on hats alone. When myself and a friend will wander the streets soon when we're both free and get me one.

I did find the sort of hat I was looking for, just need to buy it. Thanks guys.
