So as I went to take my trash out I knew it was chilly outside so I slipped on my usual November through December hat. Do you like it? My wife gets embarrassed when we go out in public and I wear this hat. But I feel it's very festive & chers a lot of people up. I've had children ask if I was Santa's helper. I answered yes of course I am. That is so cute when children act this way towards me in my hat. So do you have a favorite winter hat? How about an unusual hat? How about a festive hat for this time of year? Ho! Ho! Ho! HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

My son has been wearing the same hat as yours. I love it. I might get my own. Sometimes I wear a cap that is light blue and says angel on it that my hubby bought it for me.

Hi Hun! I think you should wear the angel hat every day because you are an angel and I'm so lucky to have you in my life! Your friendship means a lot to me, as do you!

Oh it's very warm. This isn't the garden variety type. It's thick and wasn't really cheap either. That's why I love it so much. Thanks also. HAPPY POASTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Too funny! I don't wear a hat anytime of the year. I'm just not a hat person at all. My son is the same way. Everytime I put a hat on him he takes it off. I didn't even think he was going to leave the head piece to his halloween costume on but he did. I think he only left it on because he saw all the other kids dressed up as well.

I have to wear a hat when it's cold. Mostly due to little hair on my head. I keep it cut very short all the time. It's too cold here not to wear a hat during the winter months. A kid without the head piece to a Halloween costume? Too funny. Glad he wore it after all though. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I like the hat...looks pretty good on you. I guess it comes with the smile, too? Makes you feel like Santa is really real and alive, somewhere. It may embarrass her but I bet she still get a kick out of it. Seeing that it makes you happy is worth the embarrassment, I'll bet.

Ummm. Your name appears on the "naughty" side of Santa's list. HAHAHAHA! I wear this all over the place. Home, stores, gas stations, restaraunts, and friends, family and the A.A. club. It's my hat from November to December to keep my head warm & toasty. HAHAHA!! I saw a set of antlers and red nose to make a car look like Rudolph. The nose attatches to the grill and or hood and the antlers are like those small flags hooked onto the windows. Cute but I passed them up. My wife would kill me for sure. Maybe I'll get that anyhow this week & surprise her? HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Hi Grandpa Bob, I actually dont usually wear a hat, unless its part of my fit and I dont have any plans of taking it off until Im back at home. It really messes up my hair. Its naturally curly and it just makes it flat and or frizzy wearing a hat and taking it off and on. I really like yours though. This time of year me and my friends will wear Santa hats when we go out to the clubs and stuff for fun. I think its really festive too and cheers people up! Good for you, maybe your wife needs one of her own! hehe Bay Lay Gray xx

I used to have long hair and always hated the dreaded "hat hair" I would get from my hats and caps. But now I don't care. HAHAHA! She would never wear one. I know that for a fact. She hates a cap in the winter even. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I have a Santa Suit, hehe. I once wore it for Halloween, I was really popular. The kids thought I was the real Santa, its fun to see heir faces looking at you. I went to a club dressed up. Some women (thinking I was a man) came and sat down on my lap, she proceeded to give me her Christmas list, at the top was a new husband. After awhile she relized I wasn't a guy. She gave me this look and said "are you a women", I said yes I was a women. The look on her face was priceless, it was so funny. She was flirting with another women and thought I was a man. That costume was so much fun to wear, I have worn it for Christmas too. Have fun wearing your hat.

The looks from the children are priceless most times. They can be really cute seeing one like this. I've never had a Santa suit but once was asked to play Santa at our local A.A.'s Christmass party for the kids. But I was too busy with my own family that year. Funny story.

My son modeling a hat - This is my son - wearing a mad bomber hat...he does not care if he looks odd.
Well your wife should be relieved that your tastes do not run along these lines...this is my son in his 'mad bomber' hat. He does not worry about looking different or weird.

Hello! Grandpa Bob I have been wearing a Dr Pepper Hat my mum won. She gave it to me. I never thought about wearing a Christmas hat and I think that would be wonderful. Your wife should be proud that you're Santa's helper :D Pablo

It's one my grandma knit for my dad longgggggggggg time ago. Still like new even thou it's been worn alot. I wear it when the temps drop to zero and it's windy out. Very warm indeed.

It looks really cool and you shouldn't be embarrassed by it, nor your wife should. Come on, it's just a hat! And I thought about getting new hat this winter, but since I've already spent a lot of money on my new boots and suit, I think I'll postpone it for the next year...

I am boring and I don't wear hats...ever! LOL! Most of us here in my country, especially the women, don't wear hats. We may wear a hat but only for an hour or 2 when we join a parade but that only happens once in years. He he he!

I hate hats and socks. Guess I'm just stupid but all year 365 days straight I do not wear socks or a hat. That's right bare feet in boots and no hat. I'd just walk behind you wearing a hat like that. hehehe ho ho ho

Hi Grandpa Bob! I don't know what's cuter or sweeter. The fact that kids ask if your Santa's helper or that you say you are! That is too sweet for words! Christmas is all about Santa and the miracle/magic of Christmas! It's people like you that help keep that spirit alive! Luv & Hugzz, PurpleTeddyBear.

Well, I don't see why anyone would be embarrassed by the hat! I walked into the clinic to give blood today and there was a lady in a reindeer hat and the antlers blinked different lights. I thought it was hilarious!

Hi Santa! Can you tell me if I've been naughty or nice this year, and what kind of presents can I expect from you besides all those fruitcakes you don't want? Hehe---I think it's kind of cute that you decide to wear a Santa's hat..heck, why not? As for me, I just usually stick to my ole black cap that I added a lot of beadwork to it...but maybe one day....might change it
