Title: Wearing this hat
Post by: Lady Renee Buchanan on June 05, 2011, 08:46:41 PM
Here's a picture of Steve's newest hat.  He wears it with his kilt when it's too hot to wear his leather hat from Excalibur.

Here's my question:  is there a correct way to wear it?  Does it matter if it points down over his left ear (as in the picture) or his right ear? Or does it make no difference either way?  When we were visiting the St. Louis faire, I saw men wearing it both ways, but if there is one way that is more correct than the other, he would want to wear it that way.

Thanks!

It should not matter at all, Renee. While traditional Men's hats have the bow on the Hat band on the lesft side, whatever Steve feels comfortable with is the correct way.
