Whitney's 70's Ski Hat

adam.jpg

When I was a kid every guy I knew wore a hat like this. Triangular, striped and itchy. We've all softened a little in the last thirty years, so this updated version features an impossible-to-complain-about cashmere lining.

This Christmas I'm giving one to all of the men in my family. I can't wait to look around at them wearing their 70's Ski Hats, reminding me of how much I loved those times.

Love the hat! Thank you. I still have my 70's ski sweater, light blue, that matches - could never give it up...

I'm with you about jog-annoyance. Check our Meg Swanson's jogless color joins. Save your little strings for next hat!

I remember those too! I was on the ski team, and we all wore them. That was 1984...
