Men wearing hats indoors

    I've noticed young men wearing these peak 'mick' caps and 40s style trilby in pubs recently .

    Did these guys not get the memo. Headwear is a practical item for men. You put your hat up at the door when you enter a public house.


    Have a bit of class for Christ's sake.

    I wouldn't mind, but men without hats can go where they want to, they can leave their friends behind....

    Why exactly? Much like eating with your elbows on the table, what is the big offence with this? Was it some aristocrat got their knickers in a knot about something and then decided those were the rules?

    So what if people wear hats indoors or have their elbows on the table, it doesn't harm anyone.

    I hate these random rules that somebody just 'decided' gives you class

    "Don't wear your hat indoors"
    "Always offer your seat to a lady"
    "You cannot urinate here, this is a public waiting room"

    For fcuk sake! Stop policing my body you nazis.

    They aren't men ,They are gob****es.

    'You can leave your hat on....'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,996 ✭✭✭✭gozunda


    Common sense dictates that if you wish to get ahead - you need to get a hat ... ;)

    What do these new fangled pieces of headware look like?

    You're a hat!


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND

    I care, it's bad etiquette .


    Standards are slipping.


    Some traditions are worth keeping.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,064 ✭✭✭pauliebdub


    I thought hats had largely gone out of fashion for men. You don't see nearly as many as say 5 or 6 years ago when nearly every lad was wearing one.

    It’s a free country. If a guy wants to look like a 14 year old douche, that’s nobody’s business.

    No, the one who’s really to blame is the pub landlord. He’s the one who should tell your one to come back when he knows how to behave amongst grown-ups.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 12,812 Mod ✭✭✭✭riffmongous


    Tbh, in a pub your probably better off wearing it than putting it down where it'll get stroked or covered in beer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,564 ✭✭✭✭whiskeyman


    Hats indoors I can manage.
    Scarfs and sunglasses on the other hand ..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,275 ✭✭✭Your Face


    It depends on who's wearing the hat and in what manner.

    A rogue with his hat at a jaunty angle. Mischievous glint in his eye and a cavalier, devil may care attitude to life.

    I have a picture of a cowboy hat in my head but I’m guessing the op doesn’t know the difference between a cap 🧢 and a 🎩 maybe this will help him.

    I find track suit bottoms with the arse of them stretched to their knees from constant wearing more offensive. Lighten up op.

    What is a peak Mick cap , like the hats in peaky blinders?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,239 ✭✭✭Jimbob1977


    Is it as bad as the recent female trend..... to rest sunglasses on top of their heads indoors, outdoors, hail, rain or shine?

    Buy a hair band!

    It's something that wouldn't really bother me.
    Now I might not like the hats but they'll be moved onto something else in a few years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,034 ✭✭✭mad muffin


    I get terrible hat hair… :(

    Could you explain what about it is bad etiquette?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 394 ✭✭mrskinner


    I remember seeing somebody from a well known rock band wearing a hat inside a church at a funeral service.

    It really exemplifies the patriarchy and shoves our toxic masulinity in their faces, completely uninvited. It just emphasises their female fragility and fraility, particularly so if pregnant. Preconditioning the foetus to know nothing else.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,681 ✭✭✭Porklife


    Hats really suit some people. I love guys wearing baseball caps or flat caps. It shows they're confident too. I don't get why anyone would be offended by it or by any clothes. There's some guys I only fancy in a hat. Jarvis cocker is one of them. He puts a hat on and I suddenly wanna bang that sexy pencil.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,620 ✭✭✭✭dr.fuzzenstein


    Well, if a ruffian refuses to remove his headgear if requested, especially in front of a woman-lady, the only recourse is to ask them to step outside, so they shall be educated by way of a manly bout of fisticuffs!
    If he is vanquished and yields to the request, celebratory cognac and cigars in the library are in order, but men only! The gentle women folk might give in to hysterics if confronted with intellectually stimulating conversation.

    How could wearing a baseball cap display confidence?
