This Troper has a Zoot suit hat with a big feather in it, a top hat, four fedoras of various colors and materials and a paperboy hat. They always get comments.

This troper has a simple black fedora, with five silver rings piercing on side and a skill pinned to the crown. She plans to sew kitty ears on for added awesomeness

This Troper has a very nice hat, and is particulairly known for a fondness of hats.

This Troper goes by two nicknames. "Cookie" and "The Mad Hatter." Guess which one relates to head wear.

You wear cookies on your head? Oh my god, that is so ''awesome!''

One of this troper's best friends owns a myriad of bucket hats. His roommate also owns about the same amount of baseball caps

This troper, a newspaper reporter, has a signature cap which is a fairly simple fedora-shaped straw hat with a card reading "PRESS" paper clipped to the strap, which always gets commented on, often with the trope name.

And going off from the Pope's magnificent chapeau, said troper once ran an RP wherein one nation was a monotheistic theocracy, whose god was Capellofor "hat", and the different ranks were the Italian translations for types of hats, like Fuzzy or Yellow. The pope/king equivalent's rank translated as "Gargantuan."

This Troper currently owns a collection of News Boy hats and one trilby. Not many, sadly, due to the fact hats in my size are often very expensive. (Most common commercial hats are too small. I often have to get specialty sizes.) I'm currently looking into the pricing for a Top Hat and green Derby.

Also one of my friend's boyfriends owns a Top Hat with ''a working clock built into it''.

The autographs in this troper's grade 10 yearbook contains several mentions of how cool her hat was. (Black velvet witch hat with silver stars *and* a stuffed dragon on the brim. No, it wasn't Halloween.)

This Troper's family is known for making particually NICE hats, come Christmas time. Examples include:

What was a Jester's hat, with hand-knitted (by us) mice re-enacting the nativity scene attached. Including shepards, sheep, wise men, animals, star and - obviously - the manger. And christmas lights ''which work''.

A springy christmas hat (literally; the traditional 'pointed' santa hat has the 'point' replaced with a spring), adorned with as many spare Christmas Tree decorations we could find. This includes baubles and tinsel. And more lights.

A stupidly large comedy floppy top hat that, when at full height on this troper's head, ''will reach the ceiling''. We had to hybridize it with a bike helmet just so it would stop constantly falling off. Not 'Christmasitized' yet, but it's on the list.

As mentioned above, this troper owns - and regularly wears - a top hat. Many of his friends are envious, and a few are planning to buy their own.

This troper owns a pimp hat, a russian army hat with medals, an odd ethiopian hat and 2 jester caps.

This troper's friend wears a black fedora-ish hat. Almost all the time.

So does two of Troper's classmates. It's the same kind of hat some guy from MiamiInk likes to wear. I think.

This semester I have a bio class called "Principles of the Human Body". My professor sports a very nice hat. Don't know what kind it is but it is indeed nice.

a bell}} I perpetually wear a fedora as well, except mine is grey pinstripe.

This troper's friend possesses a hat which does not normally qualify, except for the continuous addition of buttons (Many, many buttons)

Ths troper habitually wears a black military beret. Said troper is female, small and cute.

Please tell me that said troper has short and bouncy bangs to kill for.

This troper wears an ironic tinfoil hat.

This Troper made himself a lampshading stealth version, molding tinfoil to his head shape, then stapling and gluing it inside a cheap red cap and sewing his own tag over the company logo, which reads "Twilight Corporation Paranoia Hat" is solid black, and scribbled questions and Boyd Cooper dialogue all over it in pencil. He actually feels funny when he wears it.

This troper's collection of nice hats includes two fedoras, two bushman's caps, a Gatsby, a derby, a hardhat, over twenty beanies in different colors and styles (some I've altered, I put a zipper in one), about a dozen baseball caps, a novelty pimp hat, a novelty mad hatter hat, two aviator caps, a leather bucket hat, a Russian WorldWarTwo helmet and a several pairs of goggles that I like to mix-andmatch with them.

This Troper is known for wearing many of hats,but his most famous so far is his red black and white hat,that had his internet name on the front of it.

This troper has several, including several touring caps stolen from her dad and/or grandfather, a fedora, and several berets. However, her friend tops her with a hat that used to be a tea cozy, complete with the shapes of the spout and handle, that reads "TEA" on the front of it.

This troper owns and wears several vintage velvet hats, some with rhinestones. In a big city, this wouldn't stand out much, but people in her suburban area tend to look impressed and ask if she's an artist (she's not, at least not the visual kind).

This troper has only three hats, all black. One is a fuzzy long one with long ear flaps that second as a scarf, the second was her dad's fedora (he got sick of her stealing it). The third is a black and gold wizard's hat that she wore to school a lot and got away with wearing it due to it being school colors. It's even empathic; I can make it flop down when I am sad. 8D

Now all you need is a robe.

This troper owns several lovely hats which she rotates between. These include two top hats, one pimp hat, two Cat hats, a green Bowler, heartless hat, fireman's helmet, pirate hat, ladies' hat, cowboy hat and a variety of 'normal' hats.

This troper has two legitimate nice hats of her own -- a grey beret with a ribbon flower that makes me look like a gloomy little child, and one of those really nice non-newsboy hats, the names of which I'm blanking on. The latter is worn when I crossdress. Though I did get away with wearing a large special-occasion birthday cake hat, complete with candles and sewn-on puffy icing reading Birthday Girl, that was obviously intended for a small child. I wore that hat all over school. For all my photographs. (Unfortunately, though, I had to take it off for my school ID photo...)

It's probably the kind called a "flat cap" or "ivy cap" if it's similar enough to be mistaken for a newsboy.

Thie fellow owns a Harris Tweed cap with fold-down earflaps, a black mesh cap, a blue-grey conductor cap, a Homburg, a vaguely Panama-ish thing, an Australian Barmah hat, a genuine top hat, a wool-felt tricorn with an oil/wax finish, a peaked bandleader's hat, a striped trilby, a jester hat, a sou'wester, and an Alpine hat with a feather in it. They bring much delight.

This Troper knows a trio of people with nice hats. The first (male) has a black fedora and the other two wear a black (female) and dull green (male) woolen cap. This troper favours goggles, arguing that wearing a hat would take up the same equipment slot. "Officially" my own lack of a hat is due to my predisposition to hat hair, but TBH not wearing one is my own personal ...hat. ''Sorry''.

More recently I've occasionally worn a headband. Plus I'm working on a reconstruction of the Thief from ''{{Disgaea}}'''s hat...

This troper eschews hats, but has a Nice Coat instead. A floor-length black longcoat, lined in black silk, made of very soft leather, and cut to flutter dramatically in a wind. It attracts comments.

This troper's favorite-classmate-to-pick-on has a hat that makes him look like a sheep. This is loudly pointed out every time he wears it.

This troper has a quasi-cowboy hat from the Philippines made out of solid wood.

This troper almost always wears her signature tan newsboy hat with red buttons fastened to it. The only times she doesn't wear it? When she's in school (hats aren't allowed in the dress code), or when she's wearing her ''other'' hat, which is red, orange and brown with ear flaps for cold weather. As you can see, she loves hats.

This troper has an Akubra (hat with a rim all the way round, resembles a cowboy/classic Austalian hat) and will wear it whenever he can in summer. Often in winter as well.

This troper has a number of hats and plans to make that number bigger. He owns a trucker hat that says Hardcore in the Coca Cola font, a slightly oversized black fedora, a slightly undersized military cap, two beanies and his favorite a brimmed, green wool beanie. He wants to get a wizard hat(preferably one that looks like the oneVivi has), a newsboy cap and an avitor hat.

This troper has a khaki safari hat He wears it whenever possible.

This Troper's 'mains' (so to speak) three hats. The first is a brown and grey stiped beanie (or tuque, if you wish), with several video-game related badges on it in the shape of a pawprint. Woe betide anyone who dares steal it, whether she's wearing it, or not. The second is a cross between a fisherman's cap, and the sort of hat that the TheNostalgiaCritic /Sho Minamimoto wears, and has several cute animal badges on it. The third hat is a a bucket hat, covered in hibiscus flowers.

This troper has a nice trilby. Not an as-nice-as-that-one one, of course, just a plain-old-nice one. It has feathers in, but that is subject to change.

This troper has two Nice Hats -- a bright red cloche hat with a silver buckle and a gray felt kitty hat (it's a hat with cat ears!). She has worn both of these to class on multiple occasions; the red one in particular is known as the "Hat of Awesomeness" to the people in her Western Civ class.

This troper has a top hat with a giant pheasant feather sticking out of it. He wore it to prom and everyone agreed that it was the best hat ever. Several people attempted to steal it. He also owns several bucket hats, a khaki safari hat, an overly large sombrero, a fuzzy Russian style hat (very warm), a pirate hat, and a snakeskin cowboy hat. He is currently searching for a black fedora and a giant pimp hat. When he finds the pimp hat he plans on putting a peacock feather on it.

His roomate owns an Urahara cosplay hat.

This troper also owns an Urahara hat and gets an obscene amount of comments from other guys in his dorm about how cool it is.

Tropers/{{Dark}} got an old hat from his roommate, and it has become his trademark for the past two semesters. See it here!

This troper's primary NiceHat is a black leather cowboy hat that he bought during lunch period on his last day of college.

This Troper has a cape cod hat he wears whenever he goes further from his dorm room than the bathroom. Around 60% of the people who comment on it say the trope name, the rest ask if I like fishing (I don't. I like the hat.)

This troper's friend wears a hat with a purple monkey plushie sitting on top of it.

This troper does ''not'' have a NiceHat, but he is saving up for one. He will gleefully describe it as soon as he can find a hat sufficiently awesome.

He has, however, seen a (presumably joke) hat that consisted of a short plastic top hat with pipecleaner-and-fluffy-ball constructions on top that make it look like a {{Pokemon}} that didn't make the final cut, by someone else in his university residence.

Update: black trilby; currently considering embellishments.

This troper has an epic and highly respected flatcap.

This troper has recently started wearing a tan fedora with a paisley hatband.

This troper adores her grey fedora, but occasionally swaps it out for a violet cloche, a fuzzy lavender...something, a beret, or the golf hat she stole from her brother. This troper really likes hats.

This troper's grandfather had a neat little hat he often wore. Last time the family was together, we all tried it on. It was too small for all of us... then we all tried on my Kisuke Urahara hat. It was too big for anybody but me. Most people I know at college recognize me by this hat.

This troper loves ska and owns a black and white checkered fedora, and get compliments almost every time he wears it. Unfortunately, it's a bit too small, so he doesn't wear it often.

This troper was so attached to her hat (a grey Gatsby cap that eventually was supplemented by two more caps and a black fedora) and trench jacket that it became an easier way of recognising her than her actual body. A MALE friend who looked nothing like her once wore these two items, and was MISTAKEN for her by another friend. Now-a-days, she just gets called 'Rorschach', and the old 'Nice hat' line from time to time.

This troper wears a rather "personalised" (i.e. bent out of shape with the brim distinctly pulled down over his left eye) black fedora almost every time he goes outside. He bought it for purely practical reasons--his face was sunburning on the walk between parking lot and classroom.

This troper has knitted herself a Klein bottle hat.

This male troper owns a pink felt fedora. All he needs now is an outfit designed to be worn with it.

This troper's college pep band has a hat of the member's choice as part of its official uniform. The sillier, the better. This troper's hat of choice was a giant foam hot dog, to the point that he was infamous among the fans for it (he admits he bought it solely for the Freudian implications.) He has seen hollowed-out computer monitors, Dr. Pepper cases (which expanded into a pyramid almost as tall as the person wearing it,) guys wearing tiaras, and many others.

This troper has a thing for wearing beat up fedoras, a habit he stole from his brother.

This troper has a Heartless hat, a gray-and-black, houndstooth bucket hat, and many others. Her purple papakha, however, seems to be permanently attached to her head.

This troper has a thing for hats. She has a Top Hat, an old German Police officers cap, A leather Flying Helmet (and goggles), A fleece black beanie with multi coloured spikes, a "boonie" hatin olive khaki, a Trigun Cat Hat, a bear ear hat with skull motif and a jester hat.

This troper has found a NiceHat ''shop.'' Here's a link. http://www.villagehatshop.com/ If you live in Europe, there's a link from that site to a sister site that sells hats there, but the site, as far as I know, only sells to North America.

Note: to get to the European sister site, click "Locations" and there should be a link near the top of that page. Otherwise, just click here: http://www.hatsandcaps.co.uk/

Recently I got an Asian conical hat from there. I've gotten a "nice hat" every time I've worn it outside.

This troper lives in the American Southwest, but instead of a classic cowboy hat, I habitually wear an Australian-style Outback hat -- something like Indy's hat with a wider brim. It looks pretty darn good on me, if I say so myself, and I get about one "Nice hat!" a week from random strangers.

ThisTroper got a hat at DisneyWorld that is something of a Safari Hat. He refers to it as his Rain Hat or Traveling Hat, as he only wears it when he works in the rain or is on a trip. He did spend a lot of time around a pool with it on, which makes it look like a cowboy hat in the shadows. His brother has a collection of baseball caps (mostly from his favorite team) hanging in his bedroom.

This troper wears an official Indiana Jones fedora. Slight subversion on the "nice" bit as every one of his close friends thinks it makes him look like Freddy Krueger (it doesn't help I like to wear stripes, either.)

This troper inherited his grandfather's gray fedora. Thought it the coolest hat ever as a boy.

Let's see, my hat collection... Two trilbies, one black and slightly oversized, the other black-and-white striped and smaller; a brown flatcap with white, black, and bronze-colored stripes; a navy blue "Bell Walk For Kids" bucket hat with yellow on the inside, an old favorite; a tan patrol cap-like hat with a paper Canadian flag taped to the front; for the winter, there's two knitted tuques, one dark green and the other speckled-earthy-colors; a long green knitted stocking cap (the 'Link hat') and a black ski mask with a yellow-and-red 'X' symbol on the the forehead, made for a Multiple Man halloween costume. I'd also like to get, eventually, a pith helmet, an Akubra, a tam o'shanter, and a fedora.

MutantRancor again. You can get Pith helmets and fedoras of several varieties at Village Hat Shop. Never heard of those other two, but you can probably find them there too.

Thanks, I'll check that out. Akubra is a brand name Australian hat, I think one was mentioned above. Tam o'shanters are those Scottish hats that golfers always wear in cartoons. What I'd really like I'd to get one in my mom's clan tartan (I know there are 'tartan guidelines' against this. I don't care).

They sell several brands there, including their own (Jaxon Hats), but I don't think Akubra is one of them. They do, however, have that ''style'', if you don't mind wearing Indiana Jones brand instead of the real thing. If you're referring to the same kind of golfer that I'm thinking of, you should look for "flat cap" or "ivy cap." I don't think they do custom jobs, though, so finding one in any specific tartan may be difficult. (Having so little Scottish blood in me that I don't even remember what miniscule fraction it is, I don't know anything about tartan.)

OP again, with a hat update. The Bell Walk hat is slowly being covered in buttons, to be worn at conventions, and the flag has fallen off the patrol cap. It has been replaced by my welding goggles; I call this combination my "Science Hat", although I've never actually done anything scientific in it. I like to wear it with my longcoat and vest so I look steampunkish.

ThisTroper wears a newsboy cap everywhere she goes; it provokes both compliments and ViewerGenderConfusion.

This troper has a 2 Super Mario Brothers 3 hats, one with colored artwork of many scenes and enemies, and a similar black and white artwork one with a colorful Mario print. He often wear the 1st one simply because it fits better.

This troper cannot fit any manner of hat over his hair, but his friend owns a Groudon hat. That he has worn to class on several occasions. We're starting to get worried about him.

This troper owns 18 hats (not including baseball caps), including a MichaelJackson-esque white fedora, a plaid cap as worn by a bagpipe player, a top hat, and a vintage pillbox. Her collection is still growing and she pretty much always wears one.

This troper has a bright-red and black flatcap with goggles and an anime badge.

This troper wears a hat adorned with fox ears, and badges attached to it, pretty much everywhere.

This troper is well known for his blue and white and black and white traditional keffiyehs in the summer, late spring and early fall. He's also known for his white papahki and ushanka in the winter and early spring, late fall. This isn't even mentioning his absurdly large kippahs.

While not as unique or typical of the trope, this troper has recently taken to wearing a bandanna in a full head covering style for a few reasons, the first to help keep his long hair out of his eyes, the second to give him a somewhat unique look and the third because he likes what it looks like.

This troper is almost never without a beat-up walkabout that has been sunbleached to black with mottled brown and rust red scattered throughout. He's so identified with this hat that one friend simply put it on for Halloween, and everyone knew the friend was going as the troper for Halloween.

This troper has a freind whose irrefutable trademark is his black fedora. When he needs to hide from someone angry or dosen't want people to identify him, he simply takes off the hat. This troper has taken to, when quoting said freind in an anecdote, pausing, stealing and putting on the hat, saying the relevant quote, then giving it back.

This troper, following a day when she wore a black witch's hat with a stuffed dragon perched on the brim, actually had a number of people sign her yearbook with variations on "Nice hat".

This troper has a pair of mementos from the Soviet Union: a truly intimidating CommissarCap of the sort only authoritarian states can produce, and my great, big, wonderfully warm Papakhi. Both become quite terrifying when combined with a trenchcoat.

This (female) troper has a black mafia style fedora, a houndstooth hat with no less then 4 patterns checker boarded across it, a sparkly black tophat, a great amount of mini tophats, a hat of unknown type that makes her look like a young french male chimney sweep, a large collection of wool winter caps, and a novely hat for every occasion

This Troper hails from the SF Bay Area, and once went to a ball game (Oakland A's vs SF Giants) where they were giving out caps with the Giants' logo on one side and the A's logo on the other. Since he doesn't care about sports enough to choose between the two, the hat is cool since it shows ''both'' local teams, and he's worn it to a few A's/Giants games since. (Of course, at the last one, he heard some StopHavingFunGuys shouting to "Get off the fence!") Oh, and he'll be getting a SuperMario hat from Club Nintendo in a month or two.

This troper's sister has a black homburg with red cherries on it, bought in a Traverse City, MI store devoted to cherry-themed things.

...Urahara's hat from "Bleach" donned with 5 TWEWY pins.

Not sure if this belongs here, but this troper has a friend with a wide array of nice ''pants''. Some notable ones include white with french words written on them, and a pair of jeans entirely covered in ''duct tape''. It goes without saying that this friend is labeled "the guy with all the weird pants" at school. This friend has a penchant for wearing "less than casual" things to school, including a very nice gold and black cravat.

This troper has The Ribbon Hat, a dark green cap with a white ribbon weaved into one side and various buttons and small metal objects sewn onto it (she added the ribbon and buttons herself). She gets complimented on it every time she wears it. Sadly, it's starting to get too small, so she's saving up to purchase herself a trilby.

I have two nice hats; a black trilby and a panama that looks almost exactly like the one from the ''Smooth Criminal'' video from a distance.

A kid in this troper's school's jazz band has a pretty awesome ushanka. We don't even live in a particularly cold place, but it still looks neat.

This troper is becoming known as "The Hatta" due to his ability to return from trips, even to the next town over, with a ridicoulus hat the collection now includes: A mario hat, a sombrero, a black trilby, a fedora, a pink childs dappy hat, a neon yellow dappy hat, a wollen cap that has the pattern of of a panda head on it, a russian hat and his crowning glory the shiniest top hat you've ever seen!

This one has ''two'' nice hats. The first one is a black fedora-ish one that has gray pinstripe and is her main hat. She is rarely seen without it in public. The other one is a top hat that she hasn't worn in public quite yet, but whenever she puts it on her parents decide to start calling her Slash and won't stop until she takes it off.

Update: FOUR nice hats. The previous two, a SonicTheHedgehog beanie given to my as a Christmas present from a friend, and another fedora-like solid black one, given as a Valentine's Day gift from my mother. The latter got a 'I like your hat!' the first day she wore it out.

This troper has a black hat. She doesn't know the model, and often gets a compliment (from teachers). Most stupid teenagers yell "hey, it's Michael Jackson!" when they see her.

This troper recently bought a hat. It's white with black stripes, made of furry fabric, and shaped so that it almost looks like it has pointy ears at the top. Despite this it actually fits under a bicycle helmet, something she appreciates greatly. And it has these things hanging from it, which are long enough to work as a scarf. It is also warm, and covers this troper's ears nicely when it gets cold here. She likes it very much.

This tropette now has a nice, fuzzy black beret. Nice!

This Troper has taken to wearing a fuschia colored fedora. Checkered, fuschia and black colored fedora. I plan to top it off with a monacle one day.

In college, this troper was known as The Guy With The Hat. It's a simple black leather wide brimmed hat. I like it because it keeps light from my eyes and rain from my head. After a few years of wearing it most every day, it was pretty much my nickname among people I had never, and still have not, met. It's weird hearing stories about yourself being referred to like that.

This troper has a very nice black and white and gray plaid-patterned trilby, interlaced with shiny thread and some small buttons along the strap embossed with different coats of arms. In fact, it is such a NiceHat that even the most anal teacher at school doesn't have the heart to tell her to take it off in the building. As a subtle joke, she tends to wear it with her favorite t-shirt that shows a stylized picture of a priestess performing a demon-summoning ritual.

This troper owns a familiar-looking straw hat. It's earned him several positive comments from classmates and teachers alike. Due to size complications, however, he prefers to use a string strap to hang it from around his neck.

Just looking around her room, this troper sees a black straw trilby (currently having its band replaced with one made from a man's colorful necktie), a Jack Skellington baseball cap from a trip to Disney, a crocheted (by me) beanie in muted rainbow colors (with matching scarf and FingerlessGloves) a crocheted (also by me) purple beret that is the softest thing in the world, a natural straw floppy beach hat, a crocheted (not by me) pimp hat in the local football team's colors, and a Mardi-Gras wreath of flowers and ribbons (not technically a hat, but still kitschy and fun). She also has two brought back from computer conventions: a navy newsboy with the Windows logo on the back, and a red fedora from, well, Red Hat.

This troper's (same as above) boyfriend also owns a black trilby (although his is cloth) and we tend to wear them when out and about and dressed up together. At the homecoming dance we officially became the "Epic Hat Couple".

This troper is a member of a science-fiction fan club, and we've declared that you cannot truly be the good kind of geek until you have a Nice Hat. This troper favours her late grandfather's Tilley hat with matching trenchcoat, while her best friend prefers a tricorn.

This troper has a lovely soft felt hat for winter purposes, with a high crown and Tyrolean brim (turned up at the back).

This troper has a black fedora to complement his Cool Coat. He's been told bumerous times that he looks like a typical gangster. I believe that this trope is the only good reason to ever get a hat.

This troper customarily wears a desert-pattern boonie hat, self-modified to sport a black headband with the Screaming Eagles badge in front and a white feather sticking up on the side. He usually (but not always) wears it with the sides buttoned up. AwesomeYetPractical, too, as it provides very, very welcome relief during summer. It's gotten to the point that he jokes about being invisible without it. There was no shortage of Nice Hats in his high school marching band: beanies, patrol caps, and at least one Ushanka, plus too many bandannas and baseball caps to count, in addition to the aforementioned hat.

Update: said troper now alternates between the boonie and an octagonal woodland-BDU cap, which is lower-maintenance due to the lack of the feather, and waterproof to boot. The new cap was a gift from his former academic team; he plans alter it to fit a headlamp. Annnd...add another hat, this one a black trilby that would go well on more formal occasions. So a total of three Nice Hats, and possibly more on the way.

This Troper owns a few bucket hats, but his personal favorite is designed to look like a smiling ladybug.

This troper wears a cap like the one John Lennon wore often, such as on the cover "In His Own Write" and in A Hard Days Night.

This troper's previous attempts at obtaining a NiceHat have all ended in disaster, i.e. they end up looking like a twit, according to other people anyway. However, they are not discouraged and plan on making what they've dubbed the 'Anti-Hat', so called because Urahara's bucket hat is The Hat, therefore a bucket hat with the same stripy pattern in red and black would be it's equal and opposite.

Update: This troper is now planning on doing a Jaeger cosplay at a convention in November. Enough said.

This troper knows the person behind the account {{Aranoki}}. On her page it says she owns a Nice Hat or two. This is a LIE. Aranoki OWNS LIKE A BILLION HATS AND THEY ARE NOT NICE THEY ARE FUCKING AWESOME. Everyone else on this page should just curl up and die because Aranoki owns the best hats ever. End of story.

Four Words. Bunny Ear Top Hat. Jealous?

This troper has come to wear hats, usually trilbies, newsboys or fisherman caps so much that multiple people have joked on seperate occassions that the headwear is clearly a shapeshifting eldritch abomination of some sort, and I'm essentially the equivalent of one of its limbs.

This troper has a very nice fedora hat that's black and red, from Claires' Alice in Wonderland collection. It's pretty nice.

This troper doesn't have that many nice hats (most are baseball caps with random computer logos on them thanks to her dad), and she doesn't wear them very often, but she owns Urahara's hat, a Shadow Heartless plush hat, and two newsboy caps, a black one with a floppy bill and a beige one with a stiff bill with square studs on one side. Her brother owns a fedora, as does half the male population of their school (since there's a kiosk in the nearby mall that sells them and other nice hats).

Tropers/SunnyV's tenth grade history teacher had a fedora, which he let other people wear sometimes. His classes were as cool as his hat, incidentally--he also taught poetry, and would sometimes merge the two. Also, the whole class had a habit of segue-ing into philosophy.

This troper's life goal is to obtain a Nice Hat. As of now, I own a baseball cap that brigns bad luck, or th removal of brings good luck - while bowling for the first time, i took off my hat partway through and promptly got 3 strikes in a row. One of these was occidentally bowled for someone else on my team, but I still beat them. But I kinda got worse after that. I guess you could say i had 3 strikes...(puts on shades)..and I was out.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!

This Troper is intending to buy a Rorschach hat for this year's London Film & Comic Con...and will not let it off his head. Would've bought an Indiana Jones fedora but he couldn't find a suitable one cheap enough and in his area (can't order stuff online).

Update: Troper has obtained the hat. And it is awesome.

This Troper knows a guy who wears a different English hat to school every day. She has dubbed him Hat Guy. This Troper also has a ushanka she wears to school regularly (and started a fashion statement with it too) and a Christmas hat with light-up stars that will give you a seizure, which she also wears regularly. And both these people wear the hats simply because they look cool.

After acquiring a lovely brown felt fedora earlier this year, I have decided to start collecting hats. (Partly just for the hell of it, partly so I can call myself a Mad Hatter.) So far I only have three -- the aforementioned fedora, a newsboy hat with glittery threads sewn into it, and a conductor's cap that I plan to cover in buttons -- but that is likely to increase at least once a month at the rate I'm going. Wish me luck!

This Troper has a Celtic-print bandanna that recently migrated from my neck to my head, along with an {{NCIS}} baseball cap.

I myself sport a flatcap, representing my pride in my northern-English heritage, and a trilby which I do a neat flippy-trick with.

I own a fez.

Fezzes are cool.

This (female) troper loves hats. She owns three old-school fedoras, a Soviet cap, various baseball caps, two flat caps, one of those furry communist hat things. I aspire to own a bowler, a top hat, and then one day, I walk into town rocking my WaistcoatOfStyle and looking like a Bond Villain.

This female troper usually wears her hair in braids (read: weave) but hasn't coughed up the cash to get them redone in a while. For about a month and a half, she's been wearing a Du-Rag on her untamed hair until she finally got sick of it and noticed that Wal-Mart had a sale: Fedora Hats for $8. In the first two days of wearing said hat, this troper received six compliments--three of which were from perfect strangers. Hot damn. CoolHat indeed. Maybe if she's levels up some more, she can graduate to the Mack Daddy of all Cool Hats: that which is owned by Raylan Givens on FX's ''Justified''. A girl can dream.

This troper owns no less than three quality felt fedoras, two black and one grey. He also ha a top hat that matches nicely with his suit.

This troper owns two fur-felt fedoras (One black and very high quality, one brown for more everyday wear), four flat caps of varying styles and colors, a military-style beret, and a floppy Renaissance hat which is extremely comfortable and has been christened "The Drinking Hat".

I bought a Jayne hat from a con earlier this year. Ironically, when I wear it I get compliments from people who have no idea it's a fandom reference, ''they honestly think it's a nice-looking hat.''

This Troper recently purchased a skipper's hat (which looks like a navy cap) which has received this reaction, to the extent that he has to pretty much point out that he did have a haircut and get a new coat as well for it to be spotted. Not even joking there, a friend of mine who sits on the same bus as me didn't realise I'd had a haircut until I took off the hat. Neither did he comment on the new coat.

This troper has tried and failed to acquire a NiceHat of his own, in part due to having a large head and a thick layer of hair on top of it, thus he has not yet been able to find anything that comfortably slides into place on his thick skull. Back in the day, he wore a fisherman's style hat with a camo pattern wherever he went - he still owns it, but years of battle damage to it and the fact that it doesn't quite fit his new look has left it literally hanging as a memento of former days. His girlfriend, however, has a very nice hat - a black officer's cap model, which originally had only a skull and crossbones (not a pirate flag, though) on the front, but has since been pimped out with both chains and a pair of black goggles. The goggles, presumably, do nothing but add to the awesomeness.

I have a beret and a Fedora. They'll soon be more than that, just wait.

This troper has a Toby Keith cowboy hat made of paper. It has the autographs of TravisWillingham, LauraBailey, and VicMignogna on it, along with a pair of Orihime bobby pins. She calls it her Hat of +5 Awesome, and used it to catch Milky Way Darks when Vic threw candy out to his autograph line.

This troper just ordered a handmande Link hat. Needless to say, when it arrives, she will wear it every day. EVERY DAY.

This troper just got for his fifteenth birthday, a hat made by his sister. It is a steampunk wizard's pointed hat, painted brass, with chains and cogs on it. It has glasses dangling from the brim, and a hook to hold them out of the way if I need to, a dangling flashlight to the side, and a working radio and headphones. That, is one nice hat.

This troper possess a white trilby with a black band, given to him by his brother-in-law. It's simply brilliant.

Recently, there was a hat day at this troper's school. One gut wore a Christmas tree hat that lit up, sang, and danced.

I have a Mokona hat. My brother has a Pikachu hat. My sister has a panda hat. And one of my friends has a Bun-bun hat (Momiji's bunny). They all look cute.

My dad has a Nice Hat which causes open warfare between me and my siblings, as wearing it is the sign that today, that child can get away with anything.

At a wedding this troper was at, the bride wore a jaunty white fedora instead of a veil.

This troper's friend has a woolly hat shaped like a moose. That's right. A moose. Don't get amused. Wearing The Moose is very serious business amongst our people. For a power upgrade, one should wear The Moose whilst holding or drinking juice, therefore becoming a "Juice Moose".

I never leave the house without my trusty olive-green outback hat, I always say a gentleman isn't properly dressed without his hat. When other people say it's a nice hat I respond, "I know, that's why I wear it."

I have been well known for my large collection of trilbys.

This Tropette is known for loving her purple handmade beanie.

My best friend loves hats. She is tiny, with bright red hair and wears a top hat! My hats both have animals on, I have the bunny one, and the bear one-they both have ears on it, and a face. They are so cute!

This troper has an owl hat that she has gotten a lot of compliments about.

This Troper has an awesome hat that all the ladies want for some reason. see it here

He also recently got a stetson from Branson, Mo.

This troper has a simple, plain white bucket hat he got for a birthday present a few years back. It still has the tag on it that just says "Hat". He also has the materials to make a beanie with his fursona's ears.

This troper has a red knit beanie. Bright, bright red. She had to wear it one day when she couldn't find her black one, and from that day forward it has been known as THE HAT. It demands respect. Fear it.

This troper has recently purchased a magnificent fedora. Simply looking at it makes him happy.

Thus far, this troper has acquired a number of hats. He has one witches style hat, three flat caps, a Gatsby cap, a black fedora, a tan one he calls his Aussie hat, a brown hat that sort of looks like one worn by orthodox Jews, and a Santa hat he will only wear from December 1st till the end of Christmas day. The thing people find ABNORMAL is when I DON'T have a hat on. One day, I hope to get a top hat and a trucker hat. Really though, I'd just like to get as many hats as possible.

I have acquired four new hats, (in order of obtaining) a black hat that is ALSO sort of an Aussie hat, a TOP HAT bought in ENGLAND (WOO HOO!!), a black trucker hat with a white jack-o-lantern on the front, and a baseball hat for NIU.

This Troper has finally found a nice hat that fits him! It's a gray wool blend J. Crew trilby and it was the only one in my size. SCORE!

This Troper has over 31 hats. She's been collecting them for almost seven years. There are people who have never seen her without a hat. The nicest hats are the top hat and the fez, which she only got so she could say, "I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool." Also, fezzes ''are'' cool.

This troper has a felt three-piece hat of a bluebird that he never wore because he was supposed to wear it at a croquet tournament.

This troper owns at least four Nice Hats. However, she does not often wear them.

This troper has a hat, that would just be a normal hat (albeit, a pretty cool one, with fake patches and neat buttons on it) that moves in to NiceHat territory because it is covered with pins. 25 at the moment, exactly, and that's carrying capacity unless I start putting them on the top. Also, it was signed by HenryRollins.

This troper (The Irregular) needed a hat to go with professional wear, and picked up a water-resistant brown felt fedora at an outdoor store. It stands up well in the rain, goes well with a business suit or long coat, combines with a bomber jacket for a fairly proper IndianaJones look, and has been referred to by third parties as a NiceHat.

This troper works an office job during the week and snowboards on the weekends. Her "day job" outerwear usually consists of a long, black wool coat, a dark red knitted scarf, black gloves and a grey beret, but one time she mislaid the beret. Since it was too cold to go without, she had to put on the tuque she usually wears on the slopes - green with three googly eyes and a purple mohawk on the top. Her fellow commuters were highly amused.

This troper has two fedoras: one blue, more casual fedora, and one black, more formal fedora. He also got fedoras for each of his two sisters for Christmas. Yep, fedoras are the universal NiceHat.

This troper wears a fedora-like hat of which the name continues to elude me, every time he goes out. Every. Time. Also have a fondness for all kinds of headthingies, ranging from turbans to weird hairstyles.

My dad had one I liked to call the "Indiana John" hat.

Amongst my most recent finds are a neat black fedora and, just today, an awesome black top hat which is apparently quite dapper on me. I might cosplay Professor Layton with it... still looking for a fez, alas.

One of the many reasons why MiniKaylee's grandmother is awesome: Tardis hat.

Pictures, or it doesn't exist.

This Troper has a fondness for boonie hats. He has one that says Hawaii on it and depicts a lounging gecko.

This troper doesn't have one yet, but he plans to get a nice black fedora and wear it everywhere if he comes across one.

Taco Ninja (fairly) recently discovered that she has a head for hats. I have two right now, I'm planning on getting more: A black trilby with a sparkly swallow brooch and a black cloche with a big flower and an adorable little bumblebee pin. I'm jealous of my Down Under friend's hats. He has an octopus hat that looks like Octillery, a doggie hat, a rainbow beanie, a hobobeanie and a purple top hat.

I have a big black tophat. I'm wearing it right now, along with my long green ScarfOfAssKicking.

This troper owns a black bowler which he loves very much. He also intends to buy a top hat when the chance presents itself. Oh, and he has a bobble hat with a smiley face on it.

This troper has a number of Nice Hats; his personal favorite is a blue velvet top hat.

This tropette owns a number of different hats including an ORLY hat from Gaia Online, a blue and white jester hat bought at a band competition, a brown Newsboy cap, a bucket hat, three knit berets, and two knit hats, one of which is shaped like a penguin.

I have a nice, black fedora. On occasion, I'll take it, and put it on someone else's head for laughs and the bemusement of everyone present.

This troper has three: A black fedora with a pinstripe strap, a brown and black beret, and a Rasta hat. For all you Yankee fans out there, I've got a beat-up black NY cap that, for some reason or another, always gets a compliment whenever I wear it. (Also, I've got three pairs of CoolShades for each hat: MIB square shades for my fedora, LennonSpecs for my Rasta hat, and goggles for my beret ((the look works, I swear!)).)
