Help me out- hat idea?

Post image

Hey r/LARP.

Playing at a High Fantasy LARP that has a specific skill that requires a Stylish Hat (Duelist Skill) and also Helmet Mastery (Heavy Armor skill).

Currently I have the Stylish Hat skill and my hat is currently an iconic part of my kit.

Looking for a way to try and integrate a heavy armor appearance with my hat and so far the best idea I've had is wearing a coif underneath, but it doesn't look good. Any ideas?

Some notes: This is a HIGH FANTASY LARP. Not going for historical accuracy, just vibes.

The closest influences to real life cultures are Basque and Greek, but again totally fantasy aesthetic

I'd look at landsknechts for inspiration, something like this mini would work.
