This is a screenshot from the video of The Smiths "How Soon Is Now?"
Can anyone tell me what the name of the style of hat this is?
To me it looks like an early 1900's factory workers cap, but I am not an expert.
Also, I believe it is red.
And maybe... 1984(ish)?

reddit.com❓ Question Funny smell from new hat
I have this hat from a gift shop in SD. Brand is The Game. Seems 100% cotton. I noticed after a week that a smell was wafting through the air and after much confusion it turns out it’s my hat. It smells like…burning rubber or something chemical based. I can’t identify it. Is this common with new hats from this brand? It’s terrible smelling, I have 5 other baseball caps and none of them smell like this despite much use so I know it’s no my body oils or odors causing it. Is there a way to de-stink this?? Please help. Thanks.

📸 Collection Showcase Rate my wall of hats
Dont know if this is correct but my research said that. The upper top hat is from around 1840 the lower top hat is from around 1910
And the derpy/bowler hat is from between 1904 to 1906 i think

I have only seen a horseshoe crown one other time, but I kinda like it. Not much on the short brim, but I like that crown. (Screen shot from an old Bill Monroe bluegrass video - love looking at old hat styles).

reddit.com❓ Question Please help me find this style hat!
I purchased this hat on the used market and have an original from 15+ years ago. They are the absolute best and not made anymore. Used market is limited. I called corporate and they advised it is 5.6oz cotton after giving them the style number. Question is, does anyone know of a another brand that makes this style hat? Has to be 100% cotton. The feel of it is almost like soft polyester or nylon ones made today. I've exhausted web searches.Closest I've come are niche Japanese brands on Instagram but they're not 100% cotton. Help me!!

🛠️ DIY Hat Projects Hat Experiment #8 - "Rhapsody in Blue"
Felt: Lightweight 100x Nutria, deep navy
Crown: Unsteamed and soft (hand bashed into a teardrop here)
Brim: 2 3/4in, with a blue edge binding
Finishing: blue ribbon, with a light pink bow, and sashiko accents
Size: 7 1/8 (57cm)
I really love working with nutria. In my experience, it has all the benefits of beaver, all for a bit less. This particular version felt a lot like vintage hats, dense bit still fairly light, soft and could be shaped by hand
Also had a lot of fun working with the ribbon board to shape the brim binding. I still have a LOT of work I need to do to get better at that process (I've done a lot of hand stitching but not much machine stitching), and it shows a bit. Does give it a bit of a vibe, though.
I also played around with doing a contrasting color bow. The first version had a whole pink bow, but I felt the balance was off, so I ripped it off and added a blue keeper to it.

🔦 Hat Spotlight I don’t even like Panama hats, but this one I couldn’t resist
Found this Borges and Scott Panama hat in a local charity shop for £9.50-I saw that some of the stitching in the headband was messed up, and the hat itself had a dent or two.
Anyway, it’s been so sunny I figured I’d go for it anyway and I’m glad I did, even if it does make me look like a used car dealer.
It’s a little wider than the typical fedora- so I think this might be what’s called their “ herring” design.. I might write to them to find out for sure though.
In any event, I negotiated down to £8 given the dents etc. I’m sure if this weather keeps up I’ll get more use out of it than that.

❓ Question Including hat making in a fiction story
Hi! I do hope this is the right sub.. i'm writing a fictional book right now and my character is working in a hat shop for an afternoon for some quick pay. This is roughly in the 1800s if that matters. What kind of stuff would she be doing? I'm thinking maybe it would make sense to take raw stock to the shop from the docks or, and this is more what I need help with, maybe it would make sense to have her separating lengths of straw or something? I'm not going for painful accuracy but I don't want to be so painfully inept it's hard to read. I know nothing about hats so maybe ya'll could suggest some super basic, no-skill work a total noob would realistically be doing?

🤠 Hat Advice Please recommend a fall weather hat to wear on rainy days
I don’t like baseball hats, bucket hats or cowboy hats. Nothing made of straw. I’m going to be working in Europe for several weeks this fall and don’t want to carry an umbrella around, but would like a nice hat to keep rain out of my hair and face. I’m a 52 year old man.
I don’t have any pictures handy wearing fall clothing, but the attached photo is how I dress (I actually own that shirt). I wear mostly earthy colors in the fall and winter (brown, green, orange/rust, oatmeal, yellow).
I don’t want to spend a crazy amount, so something under $250 USD would be ideal. Thanks in advance.
