I would like a ball cap but not in a one size fits all.
I would like one that comfortably fits a fat head like your's truly...a 7 3/4 size.
Those one size fit all...perch on top of my head...if I try to force them down...they make me dizzy...I guess they're cutting off the circulation to that big brain of mine !
Thank heavens for mens shops like Mr. Big + Tall. I'm not that big or tall...but just at the edge ...where most stores don't stack my size...XXLT...Golf + T shirts....38 waist (although 39 would be better...34 leg length.
Although Cabelas has a nice relaxed fit jean for me...that is the old fashioned blue, not the stone washed, faded stuff. Very comfortable.
While I'm at it...hard to find a car or truck with enough leg and shoulder and head room...Buick seems to fit me best.

I would like a new Harley. Ain't going to get that either.
Good thing the old one still fits.
Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?

You can always dream the impossible dream about getting a new Ducati.

I have never been able to find a hat to fit me, until quite recently. My kids had been in the local Tilley Hat outlet inquiring as to the largest size they had. Their normal sizes only go up to the usual 7 5/8, but they said that they had a custom made one there that had never been picked up. I don't want to say what it is, but it's much bigger than 7 3/4!
They let them bring it home and yes it fits great.
As for baseball hats, none of the one size ones fit, nor do any of the ones with the plastic straps at the back. If I'm lucky, some of the ones with the fabric straps will fit, but I assume that they were factory rejects!
Never miss an opportunity to walk on the grass.

I have two Tilley hats...one from '93...still ticking...and a 2003. They fit...well...and are 7 3/4.

Oh yeah, a 66 year old 250 pound guy, which is probably more than the Ducati weighs, is really going to look good on a Ducati. Probably have to join hair club for men too.

After lot's of research...here we go...the perfect vehicle for you Gasbag ! It would actually be good for me too, as a 6' 3", 60 year old guy who can't hear that well, wears bi-focals, weighs about 240 lbs., and just had an operation on his aged hockey knee.
Can Am Spyder- the perfect vehicle for ........, 250 lb. men who need Hair Club For Men

Lesmore49, maybe the problem is that the hats you're finding were made in the U.S. and are sized in inches, while your head, being in Canada, is metric. Just a thought.....
