Turtle has a thing for hats. I know he has a cowboy hat, but I still haven't seen him wear it. But I bet if I said this to him:

Me: You might as well be wearing a sombrero and riding a mule...

He would go find a mule.

Zakk Wylde, Jersey boy extraordinaire, has been known to rock the cowboy hat. But he does seem to wish he was a Southern boy.

Cowboy hats are all-season fashion. I wear steel-toed boots, and yet, I'm not in construction.

I own many hats. My two favorite being my Irish Tweed Driving Cap and, this time of year, my Stormy Kromer. I have the red plaid version for the full Yooper effect.

Don't mess with a man's hat. Seriously, we'll resent that shit for YEARS!!!

Can't say I'm a hat guy, but I totally agree with your man's choice of comfort over style. Jeans, and a t-shirt should be acceptable attire for damn near anywhere...

Can the Pirate imitation also curb a wayward husband's urge to wear his favorite athlete's football jersey and refer to his team as "us"?

More research is needed. I'm buying a peg leg today.

Oh yes, jeans and T-shirts for anything. About the dressiest I get is a polo shirt with jeans. I don't own a tie.

I have a cowboy hat that I bought when I was in Montana but I never wear it since, like your husband, I am obviously not a cowboy and I am in Massachusetts.

I sometimes see people who do wear them around here but I think they look like idiots. There is no such thing as a Massachusetts cowboy, so just take that Stetson off and put your Sox or Pats cap on because you look like a tool.

i wore a cowboy hat for two years once.

Honey has never worn a cowboy hat (to my knowledge) but to my horror, he did wear a pair of cowboy boots (or shit kickers as I call them).

He's from Brooklyn.

Yeah but you are kali so you can get away with it

people don't understand one about cowboy hats.

you wear a cowboy hat when you are going into places where you don't feel safe.

see, this is what people miss.

no one fucks with you if you are wearing a cowboy hat.

/this theory might not work in cowboy bars

I wore a suede cowboy hat back in my Lynyrd Skynyrd/country rock phase. Some punk stole it off my head.

This place is rife with cowboy hats. I don't mind them, but if you're a desk jockey, it might not be the hat for you.

I can't believe you're putting down free T-shirts from restaurants. What's up with that?

The sombrero and mule comment was hilarious!

I bet the Pirate thing is HOT.

Even the Peg-leg.

kisses,

jimbo

I feel your pain!
T-shirt + jeans = EVERY.SINGLE.DAY!

Dressing up is cool. I love my tartan bondage trousers and New Rocks. But I have to speak in a Glaswegian accent though, and my so called friends don't talk to me as much.

p.s.
Q) How do you know you're a pirate?
A) You just know Yarrrrrrrrr!

*LOL* sorry.

Talking like a pirate makes me cool in this house. If Richy ever wears a pirate's hat, I will leave him. I've put up with having the only Puerto Rican in the world who watches Nascar, and I've put up with the fact that all of his clothing is the opposite of metrosexual. But I won't put up with cowboy hats.

Being a native Texan, one of the things I miss about living there is men wearing cowboy hats in daily life. Wish I could be with you on this one but......

Does he need boots? I'd be glad to hook him up next time I'm home!

Men (well most men) in cowboy hats are SEXY. Of course I am from the south. What I really find sexy is my husband has a friend who is a fireman and he is tall skinny (but no Kate Moss coked out skinny) wears snug fitted jeans, cowboy boots, a snug fitted white t-shirt and a cowboy hat. DEAR LORD it makes me shiver just thinking about him!

Coming from a cowboy folk's perspective (since I used to ride horses and participate in Rodeos), there is nothing but derision pointed at those who wear a cowboy hat and have never sat on a horse.

Of course I'm sure he doesn't care what actual cowboy's think...but he'd get his assed kicked in a cowboy bar. ;)

see, that would backfire in this house. my husband would love it if i dressed up like a sexy pirate and then i'd just end up having to have sex with him while he wore the cowboy hat.
