This is a total meh at first glance. However, it’s a good price for 5 hats and I know there are lots of displaced persons who would love to be given a nice new clean hat. When my town burned down and most of us lost everything, people donated lots of their old clothes graciously. But let me tell you… new underwear beats used underwear every time. Also, now I don’t have to learn how to knit.
@commonhero Bingo! I bought a 5 pack solely to donate, along with some killer coats I got on clearance a few weeks back on Woot that are quite awesome.
@courteousblock I got these last time. they’re acrylic, so they’re itchy, smelly, don’t breathe, and will give you static cling on your hair. stick to natural fibers like cotton or wool in both hats and literally any other context. at $3/hat though I guess I got what I paid for
@courteousblock I like mine well enough. I do not have a problem with acrylic, and been giving myself a buzz cut for the pandemic. So it works for taking my dog for a walk.
@courteousblock I got the women’s last time. For the price I was pleased. The colors let me coordinate with what I’m wearing and there is enough “slouch” in the women’s hat to tuck in most of my long, thick hair and still appear stylish AND keep my ears warm. Wool makes me itch so I’m OK with acrylic. I got both color options and don’t need ten hats so donated some to the local women’s shelter. They come in individual packaging so it’s also good for splitting up a five pack for gifting.
That last photo is maybe the best use of these? Actually it might snow here on Monday for the first time in years. Ha! I have a ice scraper and brush from living 3 hours or so from the Canadian border before moving here. I guess I need to fish it out and put it in the car. I don’t even know if they sell them here.
@cengland0@Kidsandliz Yep, they’ve shipped them via Pitney Bowes and I have yet to receive them. Tempted to stop buying from them because PB delivery service is so bad.
@glarue The colors of the women’s hats are pretty neutral. Don’t worry; no one will know you’re wearing a hat marketed to women. It’s not like they have a big sign on them saying they’re women’s.
I read all the way to the bottom and am surprised to not see any comments from the Floridians. As a Southern Californian, I say:
Meh, I’ll never need this.

Wish the mens without pom had more color options
@courteousblock and I’d like to know the circumstance that led to this.
@mcanavino that if I’m buying multiple hats I’d like them to be in more than one color?
@mcanavino or that the men’s without pom only comes in charcoal?
@courteousblock I might just buy the women’s dark. Cable knit is nice. And gendered clothing like hats is dumb.
@courteousblock yeah i wanted the men’s in dark multicolor. what do I need 5 charcoal hats for?
@courteousblock @mcanavino The more colorful options sold out. They are pretty nice. Bought a set of men an women’s as stocking stuffers last year.
Here you go:
Lots of caps
@courteousblock I was going of your ‘pom§’ to add ‘and circumstance’…
@mcanavino haha ahh nice. I’m sorry I was being so literal I didn’t appreciate your joke. Good one!
@courteousblock well, it was a joke - good one might be too strong.
@courteousblock @mcanavino, my guess is, Cold Weather?
You should call these bear hats. As long as you’re wearing one, you probably aren’t going to be attacked by a bear!
PS it’s your responsibility to make sure you’re not in a place where a bear attack is likely. That shit is on you if you poke the bear.
@fuzzmanmatt I always stand clear of the Bear float at the Pride parades.
I’ve been waiting for this deal to come back ever since Cerberus and Orthrus told me about it! Thanks Meh!!

I’ve needed some new hats for a while.

@fatterinperson, these are more like Caps. Hats, not so much!!

@commonhero donating the colors one doesn’t want is a nice idea. I’m sorry to hear what you went through though.
@commonhero Ditto… I can’t wear acrylic, but at this price I’m going to take them all to the local womens’ shelter “Downtown.”*
*Downtown is relative here in WV, we’ve got about 120K people in my county.
@commonhero Bingo! I bought a 5 pack solely to donate, along with some killer coats I got on clearance a few weeks back on Woot that are quite awesome.
VAN GOGH! MANGO! TANGO! AWESOME!
Anyone who bought these have any comments on them?

@boygenius1991 thank you, that’s helpful!
@alose thank you too!

@steeltoesenator thank you, this is helpful! And cheers to your donations
Grandma, you said I was your favorite and you only made caps for me. What does Meh have on you?!
Well at least they are not selling them in July…

@Kidsandliz If they ship them via Pitney Bowes, you might get them in July.
@cengland0 @Kidsandliz Yep, they’ve shipped them via Pitney Bowes and I have yet to receive them. Tempted to stop buying from them because PB delivery service is so bad.
I have these.
I wear these!
So no men’s without a pom
@jmbunkin The men’s charcoal without pom sounds like it doesn’t have a pom
@sammydog01 Men’s charcoal without pom (sold out)
Boy am I stupid, I assumed because it says sold out that would mean they don’t have any to sell.
@jmbunkin you can buy the women’s without pom. I won’t tell anyone you are wearing a women’s hat.
@jmbunkin sorry
/giphy my bad
@RiotDemon But I would know and would hate myself in the morning.
@sammydog01 Put your shirt back on it’s winter and see someone about that twitch,it makes me uneasy
@jmbunkin Do you have scissors? Cut the pom off. Five poms make 2 1/2 cheerleaders.
Why don’t they offer both men and women’s hats in the same deal? Many men don’t need five hats or women who need the same number.
@glarue The colors of the women’s hats are pretty neutral. Don’t worry; no one will know you’re wearing a hat marketed to women. It’s not like they have a big sign on them saying they’re women’s.
Yeah, I had a problem with a keyboard player hanging out on my porch. Then I realized he was just waiting for me to pay him for the pizza.
I knit. Pass on these.
Got women’s light multi-colored with pom and they are soft, comfy and good. Family keeping most and gifting one.
Heck yeah! Had my husband cut my hair super short because I couldn’t take it any more so hats are welcome.

@Fuzzalini You say that now but hell is about to freeze over.
Has anyone’s not even shipped yet? Plenty of winter left, but my head is getting a little cold waiting for them…
