keltoi Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 let's talk some more fashion! i always thought it was pompom but i just saw this... Volcom Art Ponpon Beanie - Green so firstly, which is it? pompom or ponpon? and (b), what's the general watmm opinion on pompom beanies? i haven't had a hat with a pompom/ponpon since i was about 17. i think i could maybe still rock a small pompom without feeling too much like an oversized child or christmas elf. the one above is possibly too large for me. and [3], what are you keeping your head warm with this winter? and finally, keep your gay canadian toques out of this thread essines!

luke viia Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 i buy my winter hats at the gas station. they have a surprisingly extensive collection of cheap bullshit that i am free to lose and forget about forever with no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essines Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Fuck you keltoi. Fuck you for not saying toque. Fuck all of you for not knowing what a toque is. I wear toques. I even wear beanie styled toques, but toques none the less. Fuck you. Toques. PS I actually love you keltoi, but fuck not wearing a toque. Also it is pom pom. Don't fuck with it. I fucking hate you keltoi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even wear beanie styled toques, but toques none the less. Fuck you. Toques. Ha, I saw the title of the thread, and was hoping essines would drop in and lay the smack down. And yea, Pom pom. I think this winter I'll wear one of those douchey looking headbands. Looks good with my hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essines Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 In the United States south and midwest, especially Appalachia, it is often called a "toboggan". wtf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spratters Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hats with bobbles on top or tassels attached somehow are usually warn by people who are shit at skiing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But New England is basically just Canada anyway. Except for Connecticut. I don't know what the fuck is going on with Connecticut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghOsty Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I wear brimmed beanies quite often (almost everyday) in the colder months. I have a gray one now, It's the second one I've gone through.

Guest AcrossCanyons Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 i think they are generally a bit childish (unless you ski - then it's all good.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essines Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I wear them all year. Some days i just don't feel like washing my hair or tying it back so a toque holds my shit down. baseball caps don't fit my head. Also it seems like they are more accepted here in Canada than anywhere else. You'd get beat telling a Canadian toques are childish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest futuregirlfriend Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 It doesn't feel cold enough for toquing just yet. I have a bulbous dome like Clarence Boddicker, but with enough insulation on top to keep my bod at a decent temperature. The hat I do own though, does have a pompom (typically, if asked, I would call it a bobble, mind you) and I am probably bad at skiing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delet... Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 It's a beanie with a pom pom on top. As opposed to a tom tom, the direction finding beanie or nom nom, the perfect interaction with China Chow beanie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd get beat telling a Canadian toques are childish. i think he meant pompoms are childish. and that's my dilemma with them. chris moss manages to carry it off though... a bit "special needs" looking but he rocks the pompom with style.

chaosmachine Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 In the United States south and midwest, especially Appalachia, it is often called a "toboggan". wtf yeah, i remember that from living in north carolina. it's funny, because the etymology is so obvious yet so stupid.

Guest Iain C Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I'm not opposed to the beanie if it's cold... the pompom is a step too far though. Way too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
