1.) As you can see, this hat plays an important part of the uniform of a number of military units of Great Britain.
2.) Once a common hat style among proper gentlemen, now only the rare few can rock this hat.
3.) There's often a small container of these near the entrance to Synagogue.
4.) Traditional headware all over the middle east, and often seen on old men in little tiny cars as well.
5.) Sherlock Holmes hat is not the answer.
6.) This is Buster Keaton. He became associated with this style of hat, and in fact, used to make his own.
7.) Most often seen on Barbershop quartets, and at political conventions, this hat used to be very popular in America.
8.) A very common hat style. You saw Harrison Ford in at least two different ones this past weekend.
9.) It's got a couple of different names. Mxy is quite fond of them.
10.) Very French military. This picture is from Casablanca.
11.) Scottish, Irish, or just plain going for that outlandish golfer look. The Pom pom on top is not strictly necessary, but it really does make a great conversation starter.
12.) Yes yes, I call them Smokey the Bear hats too. Also, Drill Instructor hats. But what is it really called?
13.) Ear flaps go up, ear flaps go down, ear flaps go up, ear flaps go down.
In Soviet Russia you cover hat's ears.
14.) The top of this hat is flat. Also, this one is a little large. Clint Eastwood wears a nontraditional one in The Good The Bad and The Ugly. Traditional ones are made of straw.
15.) Sort of like the golfing hat above, but with a brim. Also, a button instead of a Pom Pom
16.) Well? Anybody know what it's called? I'm putting money on Dave knowing.
17.) The Military of many nations wear these, but I'm partial to the kind this man is wearing.
18.) Yes, but what kind specifically. Don't just tell me baseball cap.
19.) Alright, another one I had to look up. Here's a hint: it's French.
20.) Dr. Livingstone I presume?
