A hat you will probably never lose

Thanks so much to Ramon, who said he’s been “saving” this link for a long time. That, friends, is the Bridger Mountain Man Coyote Fur Hat from Cabela’s. If it looks less like a hat and more like a dead animal is draped on that rugged man’s head, there’s probably a reason. Here’s the product description from Cabela’s (our bold, as usual):
Relive the era of the mountain man with this authentic full-body coyote Mountain Man Hat. The hat drapes down in the back for added warmth and protection on your neck and shoulders. From reenactments of famed mountain man triumphs along the frontier, to displays and decor befitting America’s pioneers and settlers, the classic styling and authentic coyote hide make this hat a conversation starter at any gathering. Soft, white-tanned interior holds up to years of wear. The professionally cleaned fur is exceptionally soft and holds its sheen extremely well. The perfect gift for rendezvous black-powder re-enactment enthusiasts. Made in Canada.
There you have it, all you rendezvous black-powder re-enactment enthusiasts. Our one request: The Twins sponsor Mountain Man Coyote Fur Hat night, complete with each ballplayer wearing one. Those coyote arms would give Nick Punto a little extra edge diving into first.
