No. Matter of fact, women often tell me that they hate men wearing hats because when they make love to their man, they can smell his nasty hat line on his head.

My woman married me because I didn't wear a hat. Plus, it makes you bald.

If I'm out trying to get laid hell no. I have a full head of hair so I don't have to hide that. When I go to work out I do and of course it's always a uk hat

Depends. If its early in the morning and I am running an errand, yes. If I leave the pool, yes. But if I have showered then no. I have hair, so why cover it up?

No hats for my other head in bed either.....

Sometimes if my hair is messy. But if my hair is done up then no, I have a great head of thick hair (Calipari like) so I need to show it off.

Yes, I hat. Classic low pro UK in blue and khaki. Going strong for about 5 years. This summer has taken a toll on them. In the market for replacements.

I have secretly always wanted to rock big sombrero/sun hat things just because you can totally shutdown conversation well before it starts. You can do this with a regular hat, too, just not as efficient.

This thread is not really for those of you with impeccable hair game. Gtfo.

No, unless it is the middle of winter and about -20°F and I'm working outside. I do see bald men and rednecks wearing hats a lot in the summer though.

I like hats. I have lots of hats. So yes I wear them out and about. Running errands-yes. Mowing the grass-yes. Golf or ballgame-yes. Cookouts-yes. Really sunny, it better be a semi-formal outdoor occasion or I will have a hat.

Two words: skin cancer. If you want to go to a dermatologist twice a year to get skin cancers and other suspicious doodads removed, help yourself. Or you could wear a hat.​
Glad to see someone else put this in. I had five spots removed yesterday. Supposedly no big deal according to my dermatologist, but she wasn't the one getting hosed with liquid nitrogen.

From now on I'm going to wear hats like I'm a fat, middle aged woman going to the derby.

I only started after the doc removed 5 off my forehead and crown and two off my back. In one visit. She calls them barnacles. Several had to be tested.

Some of that is age. Some is genetics. Some is just being a pasty white guy. But Big C doesn't care about your reasons and melanomas are nasty cancers, aggressive and difficult to treat.

Used to wear one to work all the time. My hair started leaving me, so I started shaving my head. Now I find that a cap bothers me sometimes on my slick head.

Way to hot to wear a cap 75% of the time. Winter time I'll wear a cap, or if it's really cold, a toboggan. I used to be in the coal trucking business until it went to hell (thanks Obama) and when I was under one I had a cap with the bill cut off. Stole that idea from my brother, you're not knocking your cap off all the time and keeps the grease and dirt out of you hair.

I don't like wearing a hat much because it takes away all the feeling, unless of course it's with a hooker then I'll wear two

A few of the teams I like.. beanies for the winter, snap backs for the summer. Anything ski related works. This Marmot hat fits my lumpy head well and has been my go-to since Spring.



Been looking for years for a Houston Rockets "H-Town" hat, but I think they are all custom made.

I've been married more than a decade. I ain't trying to score with random sloots anymore.

So eff yeah I wear a hat everywhere I go but work. Usually UK or Bengals baseball cap. My idea of dressing up is jeans and a polo, so I don't own any "fancy" hats.

Just about never. I feel about 10 degrees warmer when I wear a hat. I'd rather put my SPF 85+ sun screen on the top of my head, face and neck.

All the time. And all different kinds. Have a few "baseball hats", the wide flat brimmed variety. Only the on the field types. Got a few from when my son did the UK baseball camp. They sold the authentic Nike hats like the team wears for $20. Couldn't pass it up.

Also love the classic high crown visor. Great look for late summer, early fall.

In the fall I like my classic cloth strap State Traditions cap.

Mash- when I was in landscaping I wore the Nike Straw sombrero like Nick Saban and Joker used to wear. Let everyone know I was a bad motherf*cker because I didn't care what the white collared yuppies thought. Would wear it again if they still made them.

I wear a UK baseball cap most often, especially when the sun is out. I don't like wearing sunglasses and the cap's brim helps a lot.

They do apparently, just not Nike anymore. They must be new because I've looked for the recently and couldn't find anything.
