Things that make me go HMMMMMMM -- The need for a good hat

For the past decade or better, I have donned a fedora, particularly in the non-summer months.  I think that it makes any man's head look good.  Hats should come back.

Of course, with hats coming back, people need to re-learn hat etiquette.  I am not a master of hat etiquette, but there are a few facts I am aware of.  Most important among them: Men, take off your hats in church!  This is a sacred space.  If you are asked to remove your hat for the singing of the national anthem, how much more should your hat be removed in the presence of God!

I also think of how our American society has denigrated into a nation of slobs.  Save the pajama pants and lounge-wear for your house, not for the mall or the airport.  I don't think we need to return to men wearing suits everywhere, including baseball games.  Still, that was a great look.  See here:

The preferred head-ware has diminished in quality over the years, too.  Take a look at the chart below.  

I think we peaked in 1935.  That, of course, is my opinion.  But my opinion is based on the quality of the hats people used to wear.

Bring back the fedora!!!
