I am jealous...

Post by Dominum » Wed Jan 12, 2011 11:47 pm

...of Smitty's cool hat. It seems that everyone else who commands regularly has a special command hat. Though I have borrowed some cool ones (Thanks Trig), I have yet to buy one. Yes, this is not a very important thread, and yes this is vain and largely pointless. However, like everyone else that plays it, part of the reason for airsoft (whether or not you want to admit it) is to play dress up! :P

So, I am unabashedly admitting my vanity, and jealousy towards other commanders but only insofar as is needed to garner your opinions and findings for my own hat of said awesomeness. So, post your legit suggestions below, and share your opinion. BS will be deleted.

Dom refers to my Russian Officer's hat and matching coat.  Got the shoulder bars on it, finally!

Also, Dom.  It's "vain."  Veins are how your blood goes back to your heart.

Furthermore, "insofar" is actually one word.

Here are a few options:

Prussian Garde Du Corps Spiked Helmet:

Standard Black Top Hat (Monocle optional)

Or if you're feeling a bit more conservative:

In my opinion don't wear a beret unless you are going to properly shave and shape it. Also get a crest to cover the blue patch. I would go with a straw cowboy hat personally... I have a clone trooper helmet at the house you could use.

Ditto to what Jon said. There is nothing quite as retarded and ignorant looking as a fuzzy beret pulled down to your ears like a stocking cap.

Straw cowboy hat, tricorn, or beret. Better yet, all three! :P

;) No problem Dom.  The sad thing is that I have a lot of those hats that were listed  ;D.  I would not suggest a beret... at all.

@Smitty: My Grammarnaziism has finally been outdone! Fixed the mistakes, and +1 :). Yeah, I certainly wasn't talking about your boonie.

@Garrett: Not bad, very retro, but I am a throwback after all.

@Lounger: Too much; possible, but maybe a bit much; LOLz no; more LOLz; not unless I plan to be a Soviet commander all the time.

@Veimos: Like very much, not too frilly and more easily referenced than the more retro stuff.

@Felix: Uh... no; not feelin' it; berets are too passe; not what I'm going for.

@Jarhead: Uh, I'm not trying to be a gangster...

@Felix 2nd post: Not a bad suggestion.
