My "Wardrobe Malfunction". It's worse than Janet Jackson's......

[slowmotion]

I was just about to post that, but you've done it so eloquently, that all I can add is a recommendation that the OP grows his hair longer so that the pawls are too soft to support the hat's weight and it remains in place.

I don't think it's a hair length problem. At lunchtime yesterday it was quite long but I had a haircut in the evening. The beanie didn't alter its habits. There's something of Houdini about it.

This would have been so much easier.

Whoa, whoa, whoa! The helmet thread is that way >>>>>>

It's getting complicated now.So now he has a four foot piece of elastic with a glove at either end now fastened to his beanie.

It's for riding a bike, not a reindeer!

I still think it’s a static electricity build up. Could you attach a crocodile clip and trail an earthing braid along the road behind you?

Solid aluminium wheels might do the trick.

That’s just silly.

You're overthinking this. Literally. The heat that your brain produces as a by product of your thinking is causing your hat to lift off like a hot air balloon.

Visit one of those Trekkie conventions and you should be able to purchase a latex Klingon skull cap, that many of the saddo's there wear. Simply wear this before you put the beanie on and the ridges on the forehead should stop the beanie rising up.

This chap had the exact same problem and managed to solve it.

I've put some thought into this.

The thread title implies that Janet Jackson has some input to make, ergo, you need to fit a nipple to your head.
This way, if the beanie does slip, you'll gain worldwide fame..

I'm sure some "specialist" has looked into the beanie-retaining properties of nipples but embarrassment prevents me asking for it at the newsagent. Anyway, I'm only after warm ears, not worldwide fame.

If it's warm ears you need, have you considered ear wigs?
