only the select few can pull them off.

I honestly have no idea which part of that outfit is a fedora, but it all looks pretty bad so I'm gonna go with No.

i agree. and i find those select few to be strictly hipsters. which is also not acceptable.

Fedoras are for guys with a lisp and girls that are hiding their face.

You should only wear a fedora if you're a 60+ year old black man

Fedoras for those that don't know are essentially a really REALLY classy cowboy hat... meaning wide brim, kinda diamond shape top portion coming to a more narrow point at the front than the back. Fedoras around the turn of the century began to add the little ribbon on the hat.

The "fedora" that hipsters wear is essentially a bowler hat that is more square than round. The brim is far too small and not wide enough.

I had 2 really nice ones. I got them from my grandpas house when we were cleaning it out. Somehow he got them from some rich dude at some point. I used to wear them sometimes but I don't anymore, doesn't fit me anyway.

My Grandfather (RIP) used to where them all the time. But it was classy, and not hipster/emo/etc.

not a lot of people can pull those off, but if you can, go for it. most of the time though the guys who wear them end up looking like pure fags

TIPS FROM SOMEONE WHO KNOWS ABOUT FASHION:


Fedoras are for douchers, hipsters, clubbers, and (if wide brim), archaeologists. Very rarely does a Fedora work on someone who doesn't come across as a douche, and those gifted few, and models are the only ones that may wear these hats. Anyone else, and it's like wearing an ironic mustache or an Ed Hardy t-shirt. It may seem cool to you and a few friends, but the outside world hates you, and thinks you're an ass. Thank you.

Except for Archaeologists. We love you.

Whenever I see the word fedora, it makes me think fez.  I don't know why, but here's a picture of a dog wearing a fez.

^ Yes, and when I think of the hat Fez, I also think of the man Fez, you are correct.
