I kind of wish adventure caps like Graham's, or Robin Hood's, were popular. I like hats in general, but a fedora is a bit too formal to wear with modern clothes (I mean what are you going to wear a gray fedora with outside of a suit?)), and a cap is a bit too informal and ball gameish. A hat like Graham's would fit with today's fashion (for example, it would easily work with a V Neck Shirt) and is just the perfect mix of formal and informal.

Hit up your local Ren faire and you'll find something similar to it.

Although I have to disagree about it fitting with modern fashion.

Well consider that some (read: Hipsters) are wearing fedoras, porkpies and even derbies and going largely unquestioned, or the fact that old style eyeglasses (particularly the 1950s style frames) are coming back into fashion...Along with late 80s/mid 90s curly/waved hair coming back in some quarters...And I think anything in fashion is up for grabs. I mean this is the era of Lady Gaga.

If I saw a guy walking down the street wearing a bright blue cap with a pink feather and a tight red v-neck shirt in any context other than at a gay pride parade, I would personally walk up to him and pull his underpants over his head.  Just sayin'.

What if the feather was red?
And the V Neck wasn't skin tight?

I wear a flat cap.  They're comfy.
