Title: What do you call this headgear with neck shade?
Post by: sunjan on January 22, 2011, 09:01:44 PM: I'm looking for something similar to what Milan Fras of Laibach is wearing below, but I don't know what to google for.
I guess I could also go for a cap with a neck shade, but I prefer this kind of hood without the visor in front.

Post by: achalsey on January 22, 2011, 11:28:22 PM: some sort of "do-rag" maybe? Not exactly the same but you might be able to find a wider/longer part hanging off the cap.

Post by: sunjan on January 23, 2011, 06:15:32 AM: Hmm, do-rag, that might be just the word I was looking for.

Found a similar model that is pretty much ideal, with the black netting fabric. Minus the cheesy camo bandana part. ;D

Looks to be sporting some sort of partial ancient Egyptian costume with Eastern Orthodox acessories.

@Timebandit, I'm seeing Laibach in March, I'll look out for their merch.

I googled skull cap and came up with interesting stuff. There are "helmet liners" for hard hats that look very suitable.
I could get one of these and mod it at home...

Important gear. I had a nice bb sized splatter burn on the side of my neck for years but it's now lost in a sea of evolving middle-age spots.
Title: Re: What do you call this headgear with neck shade?
Post by: sunjan on January 26, 2011, 03:35:32 AM: Welding, now that's a good lead...
This welding skull cape looks pretty much ideal for my purpose, with a bit of headroom too.
I'd just have to dye it in black, or the bouncers would send me off to the madhouse.

Post by: aaronji on January 26, 2011, 09:30:42 AM: ^^^ Even dyed, the bouncers might key in on that!
Title: Re: What do you call this headgear with neck shade?
Post by: acidjack on January 26, 2011, 10:16:26 AM: Yeah, honestly, interesting idea, but especially if you're indoors, I'd think a dude in something like that might draw more attention than someone with a couple of inches of wires exposed at the back of their head.

Unless you're taping in Egypt or elsewhere in the Middle East of course, where this may be more common.

Post by: ero3030 on January 26, 2011, 10:29:22 PM: wear that baby to your local bank and see what kind of reaction u get!!! :o if u r looking to hide your wires, just wear a collared shirt. u can pop it up like the preppy look in the 80's!! ed

Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.
