Chinese hats why do we not use them in the west?.

I can get a boat load and paint them like this girl.



I could put Beiber on some.....then burn them.

Or anything really. I can buy them at around 10 c a piece.

Can I buy these tin-foiled?

Out of all the folk on ATS I knew you would agree with me .

lol, "This hat is functional because it allows me to poison myself without getting the poison wet."

And yes, we wear a Stetson when we need a wide brimmed hat. (here in the US)

Lol but it is my choice to use that poison .

You're right boymonkey.... I absolutely would wear one. Why? Because I don't care lol. Find me one with a kangaroo on it and I'll rock down here in the south until it makes some kind of headline news.

You do know the American member's here think a fag is something else

Prolly would work either way.

I think it's because Japanese culture historically dictates to avoid sustained eye contact. In the west, people are annoyed when they can't see somebody's eyes. Personally, I agree with the Japanese on that one. I sometimes feel violated when somebody just stares into my eyes without knowing me very well.

It is an unfortunate American thing. They rank right up there with the "Trendies". I can't tell the difference, but I'm told there is one.

For it to be a hit with those, you need at least 90% of the young adult population to participate.

Thelonious Monk wore one, at least once. They might be more common among eccentric geniuses than among the general public.

I knew it Iam a misunderstood eccentric genius .
Not heard of him gonna look him up now .
Cheers.

Where did you get it?
Also you've never heard of Thelonius Monk or Joan Rivers?
Do you live in China?

a reply to: stargatetravels

I know just some people who I have never seen or heard of lol.
I got it from a pal who went to China and Iasked him to get me one..he carried it all the way back bless him.

Ha ha!
Thanks for making me smile!

Your hat is ...... magnificent!
Does it have Bluetooth?


I've wanted one for ages. And I love my kimono too - a perfect combo for a stroll around the shops or a snifter of port down the Legion.


When you become the Giorgio Armani of Chinese Hats I will be your first customer.
Chinese hats are awesome, and bluetooth would be a super optional extra.
Along with built in speakers, a cigarette holder and some poison darts.


Follow your dreams.........

edit - Somewhere in China there is a guy in a bowler hat thinking along the same lines as you.
Thus the earth stays in balance.

I think all I need is some celeb to wear one.....then this time next year I will be a millionaire.

That... would probably work.

a reply to: boymonkey74

OH, those Hats are just so Priceless if you're working in the sun or rain. I used to wear one as I working in my grandfathers fields as a very young child in China.
I have two here, But my husband won't wear the Lamp Shade Unless He's Drunk!
