After years of wanting to try a "newsboy" aka 8 panel flat cap I finally ordered a cheaper but nice one. I remember my great grandfather wearing one and seeing photos from the 30s of him wearing one in his 20s. I had an uncle that passed when I was 10 that wore a leather one. He often wore bibs as well, I guess memories of them influence me. Though I liked the look I wasn't brave enough to try it,until now. And now I regret I hadn't done it sooner! Bonus is the wife LOVES the look.

Good look. My wife initially balked at my wearing newsboy caps, but now she prefers them over fedora.

Botvela is the maker. Honestly it was $14.99 on Amazon. I didn't want to spend allot if it didn't suit me. Though not expensive it is pretty well made, and available in a BUNCH of colors. I'll be ordering a couple more I think.

Thanks! I decided to give myself bit of a new look to go along with it.
