The hat I wear and why - Tilley 

Thanks! Welcome to the channel! :)

Awesome to hear that you’ve had such great use for it! :)

Yeah the quality is really something! You use it for so many years it becomes a part of you! Thanks for watching Sue!

thank you so much David! :) Im wearing my hat for the next video that im working on right now!

ColeKam thanks for watching! Yeah at first it felt a bit weird but then it's like the hat become a part of you! It's a different experience with the hat! :)

I wear a stormy kromer in the winter, same effect and look from others, but the wonderful thing about age is that the older you get the less you care about fashion and what others think, its all about the practicality and purpose.

ColeKam I get what you mean!

It’s always a good hair day!

That's funny 😀👍👍

Lol best hair out there

Best reply ever!

@@spizzed thank you, greetings from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I get it, hope you can find it brother!

That’s so awesome!

Good point! Totally agree! :)

Thanks for the tip brother, I’ll be sure to try it out!

@@TedWeirum If you plan on waxing it use the Fjallraven Green Wax. Won't make your hat shiny looking.

Perfect! That’s also the only wax I got! 🤣

Thanks brother!

Cool man! Don’t go spending too much now! :) enjoy your hats buddy! :)

I hesitate between olive or black ... 🙂

I do agree!

My pleasure brother!

Keb Jacket! there's a video on it!

Please do! :)

I think it would! let me know if you get it and how it works for you!

@@TedWeirum Will do!

+Tjorben Borchers that’s awesome! Thanks for watching! :)

It’s not what you wear its how you wear it! You’ll do great! :)

@@TedWeirum Thanks bro 😎

I hope it works out for you, maybe it’s the current situation that’s holding it up, stay safe!

@@TedWeirum The Company says that's the reason. I was being a little whiney.

Nope! I just use it as is!

Vad kul att höra! jag har inte vaxat min än, får se om man kanske gör det någon dag!

Let us know! :)

@@TedWeirum will do!

As someone who plants trees all day everyday for a living also I’m glad to see this comment. It’s what I was looking for. I’m in the Florida sun all day and straw hats fall apart in weeks.

Thanks for letting us know! :)

Hey, I’d ask that question directly to tilley, they know all that way better than me! Good luck brother!

I have the same question. My head is 65 cm

Hey Jay! The mountain range is in Söderåsen national park, the beach photo is from a walk in lanzarote I think or fuerteventura one of the two! Thanks for watching! :)

i believe it's the T3 cotton duck, i think the T3 wanderer has blackened eyelets and snaps and an artificially aged look (intentional design choice) whereas the T3 cotton duck has shiny brass eyelets and a crisp new look

That’s awesome brother! :)

Done it, search the channel and you shall find! :)

That’s a good question! I take it that you already have a Tilley but it’s still hard to say, both are good hats, what is the use case for you? It would be easier to point you in the right direction if I know more!

TedWeirum Thanks for the fast answer. No, I do not have a Tilley yet ( huge collection of base caps though, but now looking for my first hat, beside the Kiruna I own already).... question is Tilley or Abisko? Looking for an all year hat which should last quite long. Tried the Tilley but have to adjust to the look in the mirror ;-) Beside that perfect! Now I found the Abisko and as I am like you a big fan of the Fenix, I was just wondering if that one could be an alternative.

Ok! I think it definitely could be an alternative, both are great hats and I think you’ll be happy with whatever you choose, I can only speak for the Tilley, and that is one great hat, I love that one! It will be with me for the foreseeable future!

TedWeirum Thanks mate!!! Keep up with your channel! Really love it! Enjoy the weekend hopefully in the great outdoors! Personally looking forward being in Trosa in two weeks and Kiruna in January business wise.... but for sure reserved some time to spend in the beautifull swedish nature!

Thanks for watching, this is the raincoat: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2nCUA87deq4.html :)

+Øystein Vereide thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

good choice mate!

I still got my tilley, I like both, it depends on what type of adventure you’re on, the cap is perfect for summer and bad hair days ;)

@@TedWeirum Bad hair days is my everyday ! Thank you. I also really like your channel. Sending a lot of e-love, Philippe

Thanks brother! Sending it back! Stay safe!

Check! :)

Let’s face it, we’re trend setters.. ;)

Nice collection there brother! :)

Don’t know the size of my head these days, I went with size 57 for the hat

I do have my insecurities my friend, wearing a hat is not one of them.. :)

Ted Weirum And to that I say ROCK ON!! 💪💪💪

😎

It's a hat man. Nothing crazy about it at all. Yall are acting like it's this strange contraption never seen before.

It’s true!

+Tjorben Borchers haha, I’m glad you did! :)

:)

It’s better to have a look at their website:)

Sad day indeed!

It’s got good ventilation, you leave a little room on top for fresh air to circulate:)

I haven’t heard about it!

T3

Agreed! :)

This is the cotton duck, when I bought it I just saw T3 as the mode name but now that you mentioned it I looked at it and it’s the cotton duck!

@@TedWeirum Thank you :)

Thanks for clearing things up! :)

+Mik Swe ja, ingen dum idé, tanken har slagit mig! Får väl ta fram lite prototyp bilder! Tack för att du tittade förbi! :)

Thanks brother! :)

sounds like a good deal, hope you're happy with it! :)

Well spoken! :) I think you’ll be more than fine with this one! :)

T3

Agreed! long time ago since I last used mine, hope to bring it out again soon! :) thanks for watching!

:)

Thank you!

Thank you!

nice! it's a great hat, hope you really enjoy it! :)

i already like it. it feels very conformable. i agree your opinion about the look , haha. but it may take some time get used to it, i have never tried this kind of hat for daily using. haha.

yeah, I get what you mean! it's perfect for the woods but people are maybe not so used to it anymore in the city as before! :)

T3! :)

@@TedWeirum can't decide between this (T3) and the (air flow ltm3) . Would you have any idea which would be more durable from a packabalility point of view, like being crushed in the backpack. BTW. I do agree, its a good feeling to feel like Indiana Jones, isn't exploring a natural and enjoyable thing for us all

I’ve crushed the t3 many many times and all i can say is that it’s still all good! :)

+Daniel Madsen thanks Daniel!

Thank you! :)

It’s worth the wait brother! Enjoy! I need a haircut too! :)

You know it!

That would be awesome

+hypnosiscenter nyc wear it if you like! Don't know why you would go to a wedding if you don't like the couple.. :)

So true! :)

If you make it to 80.

Make sure you let them know, maybe they’ll be able to come back to Canada one day

Where did you see that they make stuff in China now?

@@towncallednevers On the inside of one of the Tilly hats

@@tjm3900 After some investigating, it looks like Tilley has decided to make most of their iconic Airflo hats as well as some other new young"trendy" hats (the Nomad, the Hyeto, some other hats that are trying to appeal to younger people) in China. You can still get an Airflo "mash-up" hat that's made with recycled yarn, they actually look really nice, and they're still made in Canada. Sucks for me as the iconic LTM5 might have been a purchase I would have considered in the future, now I'll have to really think on that. Luckily a bunch of their other hats are still made on Gervais Ave in North York... I have the T3 Wanderer and the TTW2 Tec-Wool winter hat, they're both still made in Canada. Really unfortunate and kind of a bummer. Funny, if you literally google "Tilley made in china" there's a Globe & Mail article/interview with Alex Tilley where he states his negative opinion on overseas manufacturing. I mean, I'm bummed out that they're not 100% made in Canada anymore but if a life-long Tilley wearer were to compare a Canadian-made Airflo and a Chinese-made Airflo and not be able to tell the difference, there's still that? Here's the list of Canadian-made products: www.tilley.com/ca_en/made-in-canada.html

No, they are still made in Canada.

hope you don't mind me asking, what's a Toque? never heard the word before :)

@@TedWeirum It’s a winter hat. That’s what we call them them in Canada.

Helps me swim!

Good deal! :)

agreed!

With this one I can do it with our without, it stays on. At least for me!

hahaha, love it! yeah I think I will keep this one until the end of time, you'll see me found dead in this one! ;)

: )

Feel like him sometimes too! :)

Hey, I guess you’re right! I think that I just want my hat to look like I’m using it and not like it’s brand new! Sure it will last longer if you wash it! I do tend to rinse it every now and again in rivers and lakes! Enjoy your hat friend! Thanks for watching!

I wash my 6 year old Tilly hat often. It looks worn in, smells clean, and is in great shape without any rips or stiching coming undone.

I’ll give it a try! :)

.I found washing it even for the first time actually takes away the " new hat look " and adds to its character straight away.

Duly noted! How did you wash it?

Thanks! :)

:) Glad I did!

Hey Bill, yeah I heard about it! this video and this hat was made long before that though, I understand your anger and disappointment, I've seen the same with a lot of Swedish brands over the years too.
