These vintage hats were discovered in an old warehouse where they had been hidden (intentionally?) since the 1960s. It's possible that back then they were fashionable, but we doubt it very much. The hats come flat and folded, but they have little nozzles where you blow them up. Fully inflated, they become round with a pointy top, kind of like the hats worn by Chinese peasants. To keep from blowing again, they can be tied under your chin. And when you're done looking like an idiot, you can deflate them for use another day. They come in various floral patterns, with a few solids thrown in. It says on the package that they can be used in the Sun or the Rain... but we recommend you use them at NIGHT so no one will see you. Some of the hats have small scuff marks, because they were packaged such a long time ago and have been moved frequently to protect them from being burned by priests, teachers, and the manufacturers themselves but they still work just fine and look stupid as ever.
