The difference between a fedora and trilby. Know the difference and don’t insult the hat, insult the people who misname and misuse them.

Trilby VS Fedora

As a hat enthusiast, it is one of the things that slightly annoy me when people confuse the two.

This is a trilby.

It is the one associated with neckbeards and the friend zone.

Contrary to popular belief, it IS possible to look good in a trilby, however, you need to have the proper attire. I suggest a matching button up shirt, tie, tucked into pants that are NOT blue denim jeans AND you need ot be wearing a belt. 

You CANNOT wear it with a normal T-shirt.

This is a fedora

Notice the wider brim and it does not fold in the back. This is associated with adventurer/archaeologists and like the trilby, must be worn with the proper attire.

Now that you know, Start calling them by the proper terms. Fedoras get so much shit when they aren’t even the proper hats.

Yup, pretty much my entire argument in a nutshell. It’s not the clothes you judge a person by, but how they act.

Also, I’m not a fan of gamegrumps but i do have to mention that

has a neckbeard and actually seems like a decent person. 

And I’m pretty sure fans of the show would yell at me and say that’s an understatement.

Can we just stop hating on trilbies and fedoras? They aren’t bad hats. They? Just look bad when worn without the proper clothing.
