We asked women from the community why they love hats - here's what they said:

From The Community: Why Hats? - Goorin Bros.

"Like so many women, I juggle several hats. I’m just able to juggle in style thanks to Goorin Bros. For some, their own crown and glory is their illustrious locks, curls, short, long or perfectly styled coifs: Mine is my customized Colonel Pierce, a Queen with a Crown in all her Glory. My vibe is always topped with my love of hats.”

“I wasn’t always this bold, stylish, “Hat Person,” you see today. In fact, I was quite the opposite. Some might remember me as fashionable. And put-together, yes. But I played it safe. I always fit in the crowd. In my young, inexperienced, insecure naivety, I was NOT a “Hat Person.” I had constructed a box and placed myself in it. I had a friend, who saw me in the way a good friend should see you. She said I was mysterious, a stand-out, and confident enough to draw attention with my style and absorb the energy that resulted in that. She said this, and put a hat on my head. I wanted to be the girl she saw. Could this hat transform me there? I’d try anything to feel the way she described. Chances are, you are viewed this way by someone too...we all are. So in that way, we are all “Hat People.” But only the boldest of us decide to try one on. So the journey of boldness continues. "
