Fashion Do You Have a Head? Do You Have $200? Do You Hate It When Forest Creatures Are Alive?

Posted by on Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 12:59 PM

Welcome to Fur Hat World!

SALE! SALE! SALE!

How about Coonskin Hat With Face for $189.95 $129.95:

Lookin' good there, mannequin. Nothing like a hat with its own face. And here's the ever-popular Coyote Fur Mountain Man Hat for $429.95 $289.95:

Hmmm. It's not a hat, per se, is it? Really more of a dessicated pelt draped o'er the head. I mean, I just don't know if Coyote Fur Mountain Man Hat is a sensible purchase for anyone who isn't the skinned and reanimated innards of a coyote. Realistically, where are you going to wear it? The PTA meeting? The gym?

Hey, wait! Where are you going? I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Okay, it's a hat, and it looks totally good on you. Yeesh, you're touchy. Please don't be mad.

That's better. Let's make out.

Thanks to Melissa and Meags for the link.

No sound better convinces me of American superiority than the cough of a fox with a crushed face.

That mannequin is going to sue your gay asses for featuring him, without his permission, on this disgusting homocentric blog...

This can't be real. Who would wear an entire animal on their head?

People wear these to Ted Nugent concerts. Saw Ted in ID this past July and one attendeee had a full mountain lion head and the legs/skin draped over his entire body

Those are some mi-tee-fine pieces of headgear. Gotta get me some for my next Fur-Rondy in Anchorage! http://www.furrondy.net/

I love those mannequins! I came across this site when I was looking for a fur scarf a few weeks ago. I think they are Russian. Another store I looked at based out of Winnepeg and proudly run by Russo-Canadians had similar mannequins.

Do not wish to interfere with Seattle reverie, which quite often lacks imagination. PERFECT gear for the Moscow winter - and the Moscow gay bars, whew. Or any place anywhere called Animals. Screw PETA, these pelts are from dead creatures who died of old age.

@22: because it's magnificent.

There is at least one guy here in Juneau who sports that coyote pelt one year round.

This is absolutely fantastic. And @2 Those are CRAZY! I am mesmerized by all the animals on heads.

Oh for gawd's sake! I just wanna give a massage (followed by a thorough fucking) to the guy who modeled for the mannequin.

I have a picture of a furry man-thong. Saw it in Jackson Hole, WY. ugh.

Yeah, these awesome people seem much cooler to hang out with than those awful PETA kooks. And you say I can meet some at a Ted Nugent show? Why, I can't wait.

When did Max Headroom go hunting?

Yeah but what if you were a Native American and wearing animal skins was a part of your heritage? Of course, you wouldn't know shit about Native heritage since you white fucks took it away from us.

Wow. These hats could serve as warning labels: CAUTION. DO NOT APPROACH. ARMED.

I'll bet you'd love it if instead of hats they were used to make purses for starving rich first wives ...
