This has been bothering me for awhile. I have some brown leather Bass shoes I like, and they go well with my brown leather jacket. I felt that a brown leather hat would go nicely with the set, but fuck me, I can't find ANY place to just go look at hats. I walked around Macy's, Lord and Taylor's, Sears and the entire mall and nothing. My internet search yeilded little, but basically it seems I have 5 options.
1. The Cowboy Hat (not for me, thanks)
2. The Cabbie/Newspaper boy hat (not really my style)
3. The Fedora (I'm not in my mid 50's yet)
4. The leather do-rag (I'm not presently incarcerated)
5. The Baseball cap wrapped in leather (not worth 50 bucks, I'd just wear a brown baseball hat)
This is all I could find. Does ANYONE know where I can go to kinda kick around some hats, try them on maybe or at least see a large selection of brown leather hats?
A haberdashery is hard to find in this day and age.

Then I wish you luck sir.
You mention youre not old enough for a certain type of hat, but honestly, although I think a hat is a great look on some guys, mostly they are for the over 40 crowd. With the exception of the baseball cap of course.
I hope you prove me wrong.
Pics when you find it?

Ahhh, thank you sir. At least I have something new to look at. I went down a bunch of hat places on my Google search and got very little back.

Eh, I can't lie, it reminds me of an old guy's hat. But like I said, I really want a place to go try them on with my coat and see what I think.

I got one of these while at Disney World. Needed a hat, and didn't want a disney baseball cap. Usually like to put it on weekends when I'm grilling, etc.
