Both me Grandads wore them , god bless them.
Have one of them in the wardrobe which I could bear to see hoyed out. Old school gentle green check effort . It'll be getting worn when I reach a certain age in 30 odd years.
Look class on a certain generation. On others makes you look like a knob

Disagree.
Normal flat cap - fine. Peaky Blinder looks a bit OTT.
I think you have to have the full get up, or indeed be in 1920s Birmingham to get away with it

A simple wooly hat, nee bobble, is the only acceptable headgear on men under 65. Flat caps are for old gadgies and they look great in them.

When I was little in the 50s, me Dad would take me through to Newcastle either on the train or the express bus from Park Lane, to pick out a new cap for himself. He thought that there was a greater choice through there. We would also go to a seafood shop in the Haymarket (I think)for a plate of mussels or whelks and finish off at St James’ Hall for the wrestling. He worked in the shipyards all of his life and always wore a cap to work and had best ones when he went out dressed. We still have a couple of them in the family.

Bobble is acceptable. Flat caps on 65+
