How Can I Wear This?!
Throughout our lives, we gradually accumulate things, including clothes and accessories, that were once interesting, but we often forget about and hardly wear anymore. Today, as a challenge, we take some of these items from our closet and try to put them together in outfits within a limited time!

o, over time, you amass quite a few things and, with the clothes being in different spots, it’s easy to miss something or hide something underneath an overcoat. I’m sure you have some items that haven’t seen the light of day in a while too.

So, Chris on the camera is going to hand me items out of an ominous IKEA bag, and I swear I have not seen these items before. No, just kidding. I honestly have not seen these items before. Well, I probably have because I bought them at one point in time. But I don’t know what’s going to happen in the video today.

1. Wegener Bavarian Velour Hat
First item. Wow! Okay. Short-brimmed hat with this kind of green ribbon. It has a very kind of alpine-style feel to me. Maybe a tracht, which is kind of a traditional German way of clothing.

This hat is from Wegener and it’s called “Bavarian.” It has also what is called a “velour finish,” which truly feels like a nice velour or velvet. But, as you know, high-quality hats are made from hair, usually like rabbit hair or beaver hair. And so, this finish is hard to find these days and, therefore, very unusual and, because of that, I bought that hat. I couldn’t tell you how old it is exactly. But, based on the tag inside the head, I would guess probably 70s.

With my big ears, this kind of short brim is not ideal, and, if you want to learn more about how we can find the perfect hat shape for your face shape, check out this video here.

All right. I came back here still putting on my tie.

Now, this hat I got from, I think, a guy named Steve Heck, who is a collector of German and Austrian hats – particularly, vintage hats. He has a large collection of these high-quality hats and, you know, he travels to hat factories in T?inec, for example, in Czech Republic, and just tries to learn more about it and it’s his hobby.
