Have you every seen a family where multiple generations of the same family obviously have the same interests? They’re dressed alike, same branded t-shirts, same shoes (usually). And often the same club/organisation hat.
I figured out where the phrase ‘old hat’ come from. As in, “they’re an old hat” referring to someone who’s done something for years.
Grandad’s club hat is the oldest. It’s faded, fraying and has an old version of the logo on it. And it says 1956 on the back.
Dad’s hat’s not looking too bad. It’s got a different type of buckle, and no holes.
And the kid’s hat is brand new. Bought for their birthday. Way too big, but they’ll grow into it.
Dad’s an old hat, but grandad’s the oldest.
