Winter driver hats.

I used to wear a black balaclava when it got really cold, no one seemed to have a problem with it.

I wear a mad bomber type fur hat with the flaps with a neck gaiter. Last year when it hit -40F a few times I even started wearing my bicycling skull cap under the fur hat.

I hate wearing hats, makes my scalp itch. Someone suggested washing my hats, balaclavas and skull cap (I wear one of those too when it gets really cold) with Head and Shoulders. Have to do it by hand, but it does work.

Shave your head, problem solved. Used to have the same issue when I wore them and had hair on my cranium. Shave my head all year with no guard on the sheers, problem went away.

I wear this when the temp drops below zero (in brown of course):

When it's a little warmer with no wind, this is my goto hat:

Balaclavas drive me nuts so I prefer this:

I cut the top out of a company knitted hat and wear it as a gator with a regular knitted hat.

Wear whatever you feel comfortable with warmth as the number one reason. Like I said earlier no one is coming out in the cold or rain to check your uniform

Considering the time of year, any problems with wearing a Santa Claus hat to be in the spirit of the season?

You may be able to get away with it on Christmas Eve but I wouldn't try to do it before then.

I used to do that but the last few years peak has sucked the joy of the season out of me.

Must be nice. We can only wear company issued official uniform apparel, it is strictly enforced.

I wore one once first half of the day on Christmas eve but at lunch a 37 year driver/senior steward educated me about how big of a deal being "out of uniform" is and talked me into taking it off.

 

[jumpman23]

Yeah the idea of wearing a Santa hat all xmas is pretty cornballish to be honest lol. That's an old school thing you might have seen drivers who are stuck in the 70s n 80s do lmfao.

I put a wreath on the front of my truck and antlers on the top.
