First off, I gotta say, I saw something about a black leather bucket hat from Prada the other day. A *leather* bucket hat. Like, seriously? Who thought of that? Honestly, it sounds kinda… extra. But then again, it’s Prada, so it’s probably extra in a good way, y’know? Like, “I’m fishing for compliments, but make it fashion.” It’s got that little enamel triangle logo, which, let’s be real, is half the reason you’d buy it in the first place. Admit it! You’re paying for the flex. I’m not judging, I would too, probably.
And speaking of price, oh boy! I saw some on Lyst going for like, $493 and up. Up! Like, where does it stop? My rent is cheaper than some of these hats! But hey, free shipping and returns are available, so at least you can return it if you suddenly realize you could buy a small used car for the same price.
Then there’s the whole “are you getting it new or used?” debate. eBay has the pre-loved ones. I guess if you’re into that vintage vibe or just trying to save a buck, go for it. Just… make sure it’s actually Prada and not some, uh, *inspired* imitation. ‘Cause nobody wants a Praduuuuuuh instead of a Prada, right? Awkward!
Oh, and I almost forgot! They have satin and patent leather hats too? Seriously, Prada is just throwing materials at the wall and seeing what sticks, aren’t they? I’m not sure how I feel about that combo. Sounds a bit… shiny. Maybe for a night out? Def not for, like, gardening. Imagine getting dirt on your *patent leather* Prada hat! The horror!
Anyway, my overall opinion? They’re probably beautiful, ridiculously expensive, and completely impractical for everyday life. But hey, if you have the cash and the confidence to rock a leather or satin or whatever-the-hell-they’re-making-them-out-of Prada hat, then you do you. Just, uh, maybe don’t wear it while you’re mowing the lawn. Just a thought.
