Today is Felt Hat Day, stop it , quit feeling your hat! Today you wear a felt hat ( processed hair ). The day is for a stylish hat that makes a statement, ( not frig off).
Historically, men and women wore hats as protection and status symbols, too. This time of year, people traded in the lighter, cooler straw hat for the warmer felt hat. Additionally, etiquette dictated what hats men and women wore and where. For example, good behavior required men (mostly) to learn to don and doff the hat at an early age.
