I wear a baseball cap if it’s raining, as I hate rain on my glasses.
Yes, I agree about ears sensitive to cold JBR, I’ve been the same since childhood.
I know the hats you mean with the fold-down ear flaps, I have one meself somewhere.
that works…good thinking

Yes, the peak on my flat cap serves the same purpose, especially if I pull it down at the front.

A friend of mine wears a “Dutch Cap” on his head.
Seems rather strange!

My thoughts too. I used to work as a sexual health outreach worker & know that people have their own choices to make when it comes to contraception. But, “his head” 
Maybe he should read the instructions?

I do wear caps and hats in the summer. Winter here is balaclava mask and beanie time. Truth be told I am not overly fond of head wear.

I’ve just looked up those Russian hats, they look so cosy and warm.

Of course they should be, living in Russia, shiver me timbers.

I wear a cycle helmet when out on my bike. Does that count? 
Other than that, I wear a hat when fishing to keep the sun out of my eyes and to stop my ears from being sunburnt.

Hats? Take your pick. I have worn a hat as long as I can remember. In summer to keep the sun off my hairless head. In winter to keep it warm. I believe you can loose a lot of body warmth though ones head.! The present one at the moment is the Mercedes one. image|690x517
