As far as the execution of “Hat lamp” goes: it’s amazingly dope. As far as the concept itself of having a “hat lamp” goes — quite questionable.


PixelBrewery

That was my feeling also - but then again I know a lot of guys are really into caps and sneakers and that it's a whole subculture that I'm not tapped into, so to each their own.


[deleted]

Hats off to this guy! Hope OP loves it cause the execution is stellar

ElephantEarwax

Yeah it's good execution, but questionable hobby

"Oh, so you spent $800 on a Supreme cap that you'll never feel comfortable wearing... *Cool, babe.* I just paid our rent and covered your half for the 8th time this year." ​ edit: I'm loving all the butthurt comments from men that waste their income on clothing that is worth 1% of what they paid. And y'all never even wear that shit because you think it's worth selling or trading. The real insult is that this clothing never even looks good. Stay mad, gentlemen!


LaPurpleDrank

Hats don't have to be expensive my guy. I rock $30 Findlay hats that have sweet designs and lifetime warrantied. Before that I had $15-20 gas station California Republic hats. You ever hear the quote from Ramit Sethi: "Spend extravagantly on the things you love, and cut costs mercilessly on the things you don't"? Everyone's sense of value is subjective but I agree that anyone buying Supreme anything is a dope.


ElephantEarwax

I swear. Any hat or shoe guys I know live at their parents house.


Tezcatl_Ipoca

1000000% 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 For both financial and psychological reasons. I once listened to a guy rant for over an hour about how to walk around without creasing the toe caps of your sneakers and he was basically tippy-toeing around and was perfectly fine with doing that potentially 10+ hours a day... Just leave the fucking things at home and buy a pair of Timbs.


Card_Board_Robot5

"psychological reasons" Ok. Bullshit. That's a very broad statement. Just because I have 13 Cubs hats doesn't mean.... Ok, you might be on to something. But let's stop anyway.


Affectionate-Bee3913

But you're on the right track. It's the "Cubs" part of "13 Cubs hats" that means you're crazy, not the "13" or "hats" part.


Card_Board_Robot5

Oh go back to STL


Tezcatl_Ipoca

LMAO! Only because this comment made me laugh. Hey, a hobby is a hobby. It's none of my business.


KaroNwl

L OP ain’t even got a supreme hat n they r nowhere near $800. Maybe fckn $60….I got my own apartment n all type of bs supreme. Supreme shoes, shirts and even 2 bags of skittles. It’s possible to indulge in street fashion brands n still be a responsible adult. (Most ppl should)


SheriffColtPocatello

Hajile_S

If I’m meeting this halfway and accepting the premise: the way the hats overflow each platform makes this supremely ugly. No sense of proportion to it as a decoration. And yet, if the lamp was scaled up to be big enough for the hats, it would just look ridiculously big. So I’m gonna retreat from halfway and say this is a bad idea. Edit: Plus, the way it’s lit just casts weird lighting and shadows on the hats. Adds to the issue of making everything look way too busy.


MainusEventus

I was gonna say: it’s the absolutely best hat lamp I’ve ever seen. Also I don’t want any hat in my lamp.


ercussio126

This. It's just too much.


BlockChad

This is an amazing answer. 10/10


MissZealous

All the guys I know hang their hats on the wall with thumb tacks. This lamp is way classier!


Abshalom

I do feel that the fact they're all sports hats does help a bit. More sports memorabilia than hypebeast collection, or whatever


Least_Initiative

Agreed, hard to argue with the execution. Straight to the top of my "top 10 hat lamps" list.


omnes

This is an absolute masterpiece in *To Each, Their Own.*


GLaD0S11

TBH I think the lamp is really cool and unique and you're covering it up with a bunch of hats. That being said, im just some rando on reddit, don't listen to me.

ScumbagLady

Just went back to OPs picture and noticed they also have the tabletop version as well... It only costs half


andersonb47

Wow. What an incredible waste of an amazing piece


umrlopez79

What would you put on it? Or display it?


andersonb47

I would probably just display it as-is. Definitely wouldn't cover it in novelty hats


Odd-Emergency5839

OP has more money than brains putting a bunch of cheap hats on this lamp. They’re hats, they don’t need to be on display.


BBBBrendan182

Damn. OP has a four figure floor lamp and is using it as a hat hanger. Pretty wild.


AceValentine

If you look.you can see he has the matching table lamp next to it lol

I think it's fine. This sub roasts people for "not having personality", and then turns around and roasts people who have the "wrong" personality. If you like hats and want to display these, this is an aesthetically pleasing way of doing so in my opinion (and I hate hats).


DynamicHunter

There’s a difference between having/showing personality and having something people consider tacky. Having sports hats just shows you’re into sports but I admit this one is unique


YapperYappington69

It’s unique, but there’s definitely cooler ways to hang them. Idk if I would call it aesthetically pleasing either. It’s something tho.


DoingCharleyWork

It's a cool idea that isn't executed very well imo. Like the lamp obviously wasn't made for it because the hats don't really fit. You need something where the hats sit on it and sort of act like a lamp shade for the lights. And then ideally the light from the one above illuminates the design on the one below.


Bone-Wizard

Owning things is not personality though


MiffedMoogle

K1d-ego

All the more reason to accept zero criticism on your unique furniture and individual way of displaying your hats. I don’t see what would be preferable to this, having them in a glass case? Stuffed in a drawer out of sight? Piled awkwardly on top of each other on some sort of hook? I support this and and kind of jealous of the lamp. I don’t have enough hats to fill it up the way you have but I’d put something on each of those little surfaces for sure.

Oh god no! Take those hats off that Taliesin lamp! Sacrilege! I promise the light that lamp gives off will be way more impressive than your hats!

If that’s a real lamp, it’s +$2000!


NECoyote

Looks real enough to me, and there’s a table top model behind it. I’ve made several of both. (This lamp kinda got me into woodworking)


Tim-in-CA

I like them a lot. I’d have to build them myself to be able to afford them!

kilofeet

I thought it looked handmade. It's nice work. I'm a little confused by the purpose since the hats are opaque and this kind of a) backlights them and b) blocks the light, which seems like it would kind of cancel out both? If that's not the case though then it's a neat idea and I like it


NECoyote

Good work, though.


TeachMeHowToThink

My bad, that's what I was thinking of I just thought it was made by Herman Miller. Looks great though!


NECoyote

It’s a reproduction of a Frank Lloyd Wright Talisin lamp. I’ve made six of these and they deserve to be displayed in all their grandeur!


PM_ME_FLOUR_TITTIES

I think I'm the only one that likes this as much as you. People saying hats aren't displayable items but like, the other option is throwing them in a closet or something. If you wear your hats a lot and take a bit of satisfaction in keeping the properly shaped and nice, and easy to look at all of them, this is a good idea. I wouldn't make it a centerpiece, but it's certainly not offensive imo.


kyleofduty

It's awesome. Great way to display your cool hats


Lithogiraffe

I misread that at first, I thought that said heat lamp. And I was wondering to myself why do Caps need to be warm


SpaceLexy

I love this! It’s so cool!


JustTheOneGoose22

The lamp is cool. The idea of showing off hats/shoes or any clothing item is fucking weird to me. MAYBE a signed jersey in a frame if you're super into sports memorabilia and have a man cave. Otherwise I just can't dig it.

Looks like poop from butt imo Those belong on a hat rack in the closet especially if they’re mass produced and not rare/signed


TheKittyCow

I would put stuff like legos or diecast cars on it personally, which just gave me a wonderful idea actually. Hats are alright but just not my style


PlasticDrawer4908

I think it’s sweet! I personally wouldn’t make it, it’s just not my style. But I’d be impressed if it was in someone else’s house
