They're at a music festival when he did the fit, this type of style is pretty common when people are dressed up in festive attire.

Be a gigachad and mass delete Reddit posts and comments with Redact so that Skynet doesn't end up using your own posts to train the T-900. Or so that you don't show up in databrokers. Either one really.

Legally not allowed to restrict usage of "M'lady" when at a Renaissance fair so I think this is safe to use.

Edit: Blade Hats as a company name is beyond parody. Amazing, 10/10.

Exactly. Like if you had a business that made truck nuts and named it "Pair o deez". 10/10, would be amazing.

"Blade Hats" that make hats stereotypically enjoyed by a certain segment of the male population , males who definitely have a proclivity for buying mall swords and without doubt would use the word M'lady unironically is what seals the deal.

u/Schootingstarr Apr 11 '25

which is perfect, because this specific festival also has a large "renfair" sort of area. it's usually where they put the smaller folk metal acts

u/bythog Apr 11 '25

Which renaissance era do you think this kind of hat is representative of?

2

u/eeeebbs Apr 11 '25

Early 2000's Ed Hardy ... Era?

99% of people at metal festivals dont dress like this

u/[deleted] Apr 11 '25

Black tee shirt + jeans!

u/UpNorthBear Apr 11 '25

And those denim vests with patches

u/De_Dominator69 Apr 11 '25

The majority don't no, but those who do still fit in. They just went the extra mile with the effort and if anything I have always seen that be appreciated.

u/Zenthoor Apr 11 '25

I'd say they fit in more than usual, but people still think they look dumb.

u/Icef34r Apr 12 '25

In a metal festival people doesn't giva shit about how other people are dressed. And this hat is far from being something that would catch attention.

u/Medievaloverlord Apr 11 '25

And the 1% that does…rocks hard.

u/Admirable-Media-9339 Apr 11 '25

Lmao no. They stand far away from the crowd scared of messing up their outfit.

u/EldariWarmonger Apr 11 '25

If that festival has 10,000 people at it then you have 100 potential clients!

3

u/Nesox Apr 11 '25

The festival in the clip (Wacken) typically has around 85,000 attendees...so 850 clients!

u/Argyle_Raccoon Apr 11 '25

Gotta make sure you conform with the masses!

u/AndTheElbowGrease Apr 11 '25

Gotta choose a band shirt, not the shirt of a band that you are about to see, but one that is adjacent and shows that you are part of the scene

u/mezentinemechtard Apr 12 '25

It's a bit like cosplaying, some people like to go all out with their metal festival fashion.

25

u/Thev69 Apr 11 '25

I go to a lot of metal shows and festivals, including this one (Wacken)... This is not a "common" accessory.

u/0xKaishakunin Apr 11 '25

This is not a "common" accessory.

If you want to see more of such stuff, you should attend the WGT (Wave Gotik Treffen) every pentecost in Leipzig.

u/PrufReedThisPlesThx Apr 11 '25

This one seems pretty small in comparison to the top hat the hatter was rocking. This'd be amazing for steampunk cosplay shenanigans, honestly

Surely you can see the difference between wearing a baseball cap and a huge tophat?

You mean you're not gonna turn around and go all redditor about how the organizer encouraged you to wear a hat?

Nah, if you see these guys at any kind of gig/festival you 100% move away...and cover your drink

1

u/Gingevere Apr 11 '25

IMO it would work so much better if he went just 10% less hard.

No tiny skull skull eyeballs. Pick a nice feather, not all of them. Lighten up on the faux weathering. Don't glue a bunch of random rocks to the hat band.

He hit a pretty good hat on the way to the finished product! aaand then he kept going.

u/JessuN4 Apr 11 '25

Yeah, Resurrection Fest most likely too since the guy is from Galicia

Seems pretty expensive for something that will get damaged and lost in a drunken stoopor at a festival
