A Harness for Your Headwear

I once ate forty two hard boiled eggs in a span of ten minutes. That experience taught me that if something cannot handle extreme physical pressure, it is destined for failure.

This brings me to the Hat Harness from Amazon. It costs fifty dollars.

That feels like a steep price for a glorified luggage clip, but the satisfying magnetic click of the fastener is honestly delightful. It makes a crisp, mechanical snap that my ears really appreciate.

Most travel gear is marketed as life changing, which is usually a lie designed to sell junk. This thing is not life changing.

It is just a strap that holds your hat to your bag. I tested it by tossing my backpack into the back of a rusted sedan during a sharp turn.

The hat stayed put. No crushed brims.

No frantic searching under floor mats.

It works because it is simple. Here is why it wins:

• Solid tension.
• Satisfying clicking sound.
• Actually keeps hats clean.

If you are a frequent traveler with too many hats, this might actually be worth your money. Just do not expect it to solve your deeper emotional problems.

It is just a very sturdy, oddly pleasing piece of plastic and webbing.
