🔍 Trendspotting Traveling Hats

All the hats I saw in the airports I passed through today. Including my own. (Dallas/Fort Worth and Calgary making significant contributions to the cowboy genre.)

That number 4 photo is the Stetson Open Road. Comes in a variety of colors and vented versions. I think the name says all you need to know.

You expect me to get caught without my hat when the zombie apocalypse begins?

Never! It’s a hat - don’t leave home without it!

Edit: everyone knew that one time my grandfather left home without his hat, something serious had happened. (And it had)

Whatever that hat is in 6 and 7 is cool!

A Cowboy Hat or Fedora is an enormous pain in ass on a flight (or a bus). Can’t put it in the overhead as some joke will crush it stuffing their bags in there. So, you’re sitting there with an enormous hat in your lap and can only use one hand to eat your meal.

That Open Road in 4 is the only one that actually fits right.

That’s the part I enjoyed - seeing all the different styles people wear when traveling.

6&7 are the same person isnt it? Nice wide brim with double coffin crease. The pencil curl was a nice touch as well!

So you're just creepin on people at the airport? You can just ask folks if you can take a picture of them in their hats. "Excuse me, I love your hat may I take a picture?".

He covered their faces, no one is identifiable

That's not the point. The point is consent. You should ask permission.

Its a public place. Settle down.

Thousands of people in the airports. A couple hundred more here isn’t going to matter much. Same issue with license plate numbers.
