Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted May 10, 2014 Super User Posted May 10, 2014 Apparently I missed the memo. Bucket hats supposedly went out of style in the 90s!?! I've been rocking those hats for the past 25 years.no one ever told me that they were no longer in style. Oh well as the proverbial all fashion anti Christ maybe it is for the best. I wear white after labor day and black before. I wear sleeveless clothing any and every chance I get. I also rock out the straight up 70s and 80s style jean shorts that are cut like daisy dukes. I wear jean shorts that come down to my ankles. I also mix black and pink clothes as an ode to the frat boys, that wish they could be as gnarly dog as me. Hopefully bucket hats don't come in style anytime soon. I would hate to be considered trendy. Quote
Super User fishinfiend Posted May 10, 2014 Super User Posted May 10, 2014 Dude, please tell me you are joking and don't actually wear that? How many insane clown posse t-shirts do you own? 1 Quote
Super User *Hootie Posted May 10, 2014 Super User Posted May 10, 2014 I have a couple of bucket hats, you know, like the one Gomer Pyle wore when he sang the "United States Marines" song. The handle tucks neatly under your chin. Hootie Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted May 10, 2014 Author Super User Posted May 10, 2014 Dude, please tell me you are joking and don't actually wear that? How many insane clown posse t-shirts do you own? No ICP shirts. I'm not what you would call a Juggalo. I'm a casual listener to the violent songs they put out. I do have some old Dimmu Borgir, Cradle of Filth, Cannibal Corpse, and other metal shirts. I wear to infuriate the masses of baptist around these parts. What's wrong with rocking a variety of clothes? Its not like I'm wearing skinny jeans or something like that, (my legs are too big and the crotch would probably be wayyy to tight). I also don't wear shorty shorts, (some things men should never wear.). I try to dress appropriately for where I'm going. Thuggish clothes for the ghetto, camo for hunting and the woods, gym shorts for most anywhere that isn't work or related to the other two. When I go up north I prefer overalls with no shirt and a cowboy hat. All the above ensembles can and will be decked out with combat boots. Which tend to go gloriously with most any type of clothing. Bucket hats though? I wear religiously. Same with bonnie hats. Quote
Super User Root beer Posted May 10, 2014 Super User Posted May 10, 2014 I wear skinny jeans, but again I do have skinny genes. 1 Quote
Super User flyfisher Posted May 10, 2014 Super User Posted May 10, 2014 nobody said anything to you probably because given your descriptions of everything else what difference does wearing a hat make other than provide a little more color to the story they tell their friends......you should have seen this guy, he was wearing.......

Super User deaknh03 Posted May 10, 2014 Super User Posted May 10, 2014 I wouldnt wear one of those hats if it was raining crap. Quote
ccummins Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 The only problem I have with bucket hats is getting them large enough to fit. I do like them because they do offer some shade all around but I definitely prefer a longer billed ball cap that the underside of the bill is dark colored to cut down on reflection. I typically have to have them almost all the way open to fit. Quote

I typically have to have themed almost all the way open to fit. I have that same problem. Thats why most of mine are XL Under Armor hats. Quote

Compared to what other people wear around here. I'm quite dapper in my apparel. Unless I go straight up old school with a top hat or boller(so) hat. Then I refer to it as being dressed in the "height of fashion". A little Clockwork Orange reference for ya. 1 Quote
speed craw Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 I fish alot using bucket hats , works great with my baclave , and glasses. However I have caused a few episodes with the cops . I was gearing up to fish behind a outlet in florida on vacation while the ole lady was inside shopping . Somebody called the cops thought I. Was about to rob the place. Little awkward turning around and finding new friends. 1 Quote

Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted May 11, 2014 Author Super User Posted May 11, 2014 Sight unseen, I would have all be guaranteed this is your everyday ensemble before you told me. Close. Its sleeveless shirts. Year round. Even when it got into the single digits this year. Gym shorts in the summer, long gym pants in the winter. 90% of the time its flip flops or sandals too, year round. Quote
Super User iabass8 Posted May 11, 2014 Super User Posted May 11, 2014 Close. Its sleeveless shirts. Sleeveless jean jacket* you mean. Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted May 11, 2014 Author Super User Posted May 11, 2014 Sleeveless jean jacket* you mean. Not since my son was born. I used to wear the hell out of one though. Quote

Perhaps a membership in Hautelook may bring you into the 21 st century. Quote
papajoe222 Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 I gotta admit, every time is see you in one of those 'People of WalMart' posts, I think to myself ' that guy is either very self confident, or he gets his clothes from Goodwill. BTW, from those pics I gotta ask why the crotch would be too tight if you attempted to wear skinny jeans??? Quote
