re: Why did the fedora go out of style

It didn’t go out of style for her

No idea who Adam Reader is, but that’s an extremely punchable face.

Wright Thompson wears one and he’s really cool.

Neckbeards

Growing up remember my grandfather wearing a fedora all the time. He kept a standing hat rack in the living room with 3 or more fedoras hanging on it.

It became the symbol of incel neck beards everywhere.

Like the beanie became a symbol of drug addiction.

I always wish I could wear that newspaper boy wool hat that Tom Brady and the northeastern celebs wear, but I’d def look like a moron trying to pull it off.

Jimmy is wearing a fedora

Looks like Connery is wearing a porkpie


Fedora dressed you up, porkpie was more sporty



Good fedora was a good investment, ladies always seem drawn to it


Since the 80's and corporate America's "Greed is Good" mantra we have entered the age of "The Big Casual" where folks think it okay to go to the grocery in their jammies or undies.

:sigh*

This is known in the betting world as a “push” for your looks…..

I had my fedora phase about 10 years ago. I've boxed them up until I'm old and will absolutely wear them while walking the halls of the old folks home.

Until then, my Peaky Blinders wool cap keeps my bald head pretty warm in the winter.
