What item, besides kilts, are you associated with?

Well, as most of you well realize.

My ears. And the tattoos, especially the neck and hand stuff.

Funny thing about the tattoos. On my left arm, there's a wee grey kitty cat with his bum facing out and tail pointing straight up. A bright red little... errr... "starfish" is visible. Out of all my tattoos, people somehow ALWAYS notice him.

My beard. Its a nice rich red, while my hair is dark brown almost black. That always gets a comment.

My stretched earlobes, lip piercing, and long hair, and depending on the job I'm about the only one that skateboards on my lunch break.

My hair and my beard; I've been called "wild man" more than once.

Nick, that deformation isn't a bad thing; it's what give the hat "character" and makes it uniquely yours.

I can't believe I forgot...most people who have known me for long associate me first with all things Star Wars. My parents raised me on the original trilogy...and now my collection is immense, filling a whole room in my house with the 1995 to present stuff. All the vintage stuff is at my parent's house. I could prolly get quite a few kilts were I to sell it all, but that won't happen.

anyway, I've been the star wars guy for about 30 years now...way before the kilt.

But I have to agree, a topper would look a bit odd with a kilt.

I know there are variations in brim width and of course hat band but do the variants have different names? My favorite is a battered brown one with a slim leather band. Halfway between something what Indiana Jones and Phillip Marlowe would wear. I am also very fond of my black felt, with wide black ribbon hat (very Dick Tracy like).
