Why don’t people wear hats outdoors anymore in large numbers? In the past, it was considered inappropriate to go bareheaded in some contexts.
@dshanske I think it shifted when James Bond threw his hat away for the last time. Seriously, I often wear a hat though, but not always. It depends on the weather.
@dshanske I have a Tilley hat I wear all spring and summer, and I'm always surprised how hot and sun-beating the weather can get and I'll still be the only person in an outdoor group wearing a hat. (In winter, I wear one of my many handmade wool hats, and I see many more hats in the wild.)
@hawaiiboy And they last forever, I love that. My oldest is over ten years old (my kid wears it now).
