I wear my fedora every day, any weather, any temp, rain, sun, snow, sleet, fog......etc. There is, however, one exception. While I have worn it to many NASCAR Truck and Nationwide races, I don't wear it to any NASCAR Sprint Cup races. My headphones won't fit over it. ;)

Still too hot around these parts for felt. I'll be kicking it in my PB straw until at least October 1st.

No, not today, wore one of my Tilley waxed cottons. Surprisingly these hats breath well and can keep you cool, or warm regardless of the conditions. However, I wouldn't suggest it for really cold weather, but with today going both from really hot/humid, to comfortably cool with rain, it working out quite well. W>

I also typically wear one every day, whether it be an Indy style, one of my customs, or a vintage... however this year, for the first felt hat day since I started wearing them, I was unable to as I was working a shift at my city's EMS agency. I've always wondered though how people would react if I got off the ambulance wearing a fedora.
