Old geezer cap

[Nisse]

Any old geezer out there tried this cap in cotton by Jaxon?

 

[Far Cry Toff]

It would accessorise perfectly with a whippet,....

I like flat caps, I have a few, all Kangol. I don't have a whippet nor consider myself an old geezer, bloody cheek !

I've got a couple of flat caps and an Inspector Cleuseau hat; and I am an old geezer. They wow my American friends when I put them on with a tweed sports coat, waist coat, and watch-chain with 1899 3-pence fob. They also look good with a golden retriever.

I have 7 flat caps, an Irish tweed sports jacket and I'm an older geezer. Don't have a whippet, but I do have a Shih Tzu. I must say that I much prefer flat caps over the ubiquitous baseball and truckers' caps worn over here.

Was thinking sporty geezer in Burberry Raincoat with matching cap probably also need a Paisley scarf (but no dog)

I bought my flat cap in a shop in Jermyn Street next to TOBS.

I could spend all day in that shop and spend lots of money, I never go out without a hat on, I don't feel properly dressed without one!

After some solar skin damage on my baldy heid I seldom venture out without a covering, on Doctor's advice. Don't have a flat cap I fear Nisse, however my favourite head gear is a nicely shaped Breton cap from Nauticalia whivh can be smart or casual depending on whether I'm wearing a windcheater or a reefer jacket. Greatly underestimated in my view, a nice cap/hat you like.

Does anyone else wear their Panama whilst watching, "t'creekit", on TV?,...,.

Erm, no ... though I used to be tempted to wear my old wicket keeper's gloves if that counts. Leaving to get my coat now.

I forget who said it, but the quote goes: 'a gentleman is not fully dressed without a hat.' (Probably a hat-seller).

Bought my favourite cap at Bates a couple of years ago after a re-stocking at TOBS. Much to my amazement my wife enjoyed the visit to Bates AND TOBS.

No store at all where I live so online shopping it is, and I found this: https://hatshop.se/herrhattar/gubbkeps-flat-caps/ problem now is to choose one... ("gubbkeps" = "old geezer cap" in Swedish)

 

[Count of Undolpho]

Jaxon's are the cheap end of good hats, I've had a couple from them over the years and they've proved to be very serviceable.
I haven't any experience of the hat in question though.
The only flat cap I own is a Barbour waxed one that I usually wear with a Harris Tweed jacket and Paisley Tootal scarf.
I'm 51.
Does that make me an Old Geezer?

 

[Nisse]

It is close but not a full member yet, but you sure do qualify as a promising prospect!

Already got Harris Tweed jacket on the list but added Paisley Tootal scarf https://www.tootal.co.uk/

Found a brand called Brixton supposed to be more Staffordshire Bull Terrier than Whippet?! Good? Bad?

I wear my Panama when I walk the dog or when just walking. What I like about this hat is that it fits nicely and is cool. I bought in Nice when I forgot to take my cotton duck sailing hat and I much prefer the Panama. I kind of fancied myself when I strolled along la Promenade des Anglais wearing it.
