Bunnet (or flat cap as you'd probably call it).
It's like a cuddle for yer napper.

At what age is it acceptable to wear a flat cap? Beanie or nothing for me but have been considering a flat cap. Just not sure I'd pull it off.
Who cares?
It keeps my head warm and breaks up the unrelenting tedium of my face.

When you're too old for a baseball cap. They're like more comfortable baseball caps for grown ups.
Yeah, i thought about flat caps....not sure they'd be great with a round face shape though. Will have to try some on. Also thinking about

this kind of thing, which is [i]slightly[/i] more grown up than a baseball cap. Or a waxed cotton baseball cap which I feel has a slightly wider demographic

Good Lord no, unless you're a colonial or really rate William Hague's wardrobe.

Just get a proper flat cap and be done with it.

Not everyday of course, but when your'e standing on Seaham North pier in the pissy wet rain in December, this fleece lined ugly mo-fo is the dogs.
Otherwise, a beanie or a BB cap.
Various Failsworth flat caps in Harris tweed, corduroy. plus a few by Cheaney in moleskin and tweed, current favourite is a narrow snap brim fedora (more of a trilby) by Stetson in houndstooth wool.
Been eyeing up narrow brim fedoras by LaRose and Borsalino, nice but a bit £££'s
Monmouth cap, it was the law

Jes Suis Napoleon!
I thought flat caps were only worn by old blokes in NE England!Can't believe it's a national trend.Nobody has suggested just putting your hood up.Or even better,hood up.with beanie underneath.
I've been wearing something that looks very much like this for many years - and well before Peaky Blinders was born. It doesn't have razor blades in the peak and my trousers are not 'half mast'

As I read that, I thought it was going to say 'Brian Johnson from Test Match Special'.
It keeps my head warm and hides my thinning scalp - so all good
that's a newsboy cap, I like it

I was going to buy one similar to that from Debenhams but they sold out so never get to wear one. It's for winter only. 😀

Well, I am effortlessly cool as f***.
Don't copy me.
