A Jughead without his hat is simply not Jughead. When you hear about Archie the first thought that comes to mind is Jughead's hat. It's like Batman without his Batmobile or The Joker. It's an Icon .
This was interesting. I frankly hate almost everything about Archie Comics .... or at least used to, and one of the big reasons is Jughead's crown or whatever it is. I thought the crap was a paper crown, because it usually looks that way. .... but, alas, the crown-like shape is actually just a visual flanderization of how it is actually supposed to look like! ....I have FAR less against the jagged beanie that it is supposed to be,, than the crown-like crap it is all too often drawn as. This was indeed informative.
Always loved the Archie comics, and I never knew what Jughead's hat was, so, thank you for the explanation! Yeah, I'm really glad that they've kept the hat through all the iterations and updates of the comic series. May he wear it for the foreseeable future!
Actually he almost gives away the process. He converts a salesman to simpler clothing. He says that all he needs to make his had his a pair of scissors and one of his father's old hats. Salesman loses his job though.
the symbols on jugheads hat are actual control buttons and knob's that allow him to have time traveling adventures with Archie's great great great granddaughter. That's the canon reason for what they are. And my favorite Jughead stories.
Marauding Umbreon don't forget that his dog had a doctor who style doghouse with a built-in movie theater and several other rooms bigger on the inside given to him by the dog version of star trek. suddenly a crossover with the punisher makes so much more sense
Character buttons are a whole subject in themselves and were around at least 120 years ago. Cigar boxes offered them as premiums with Sunday comics characters on them.
I used to read Archie Comics when I was a kid, I loved Jugheads hat and always wanted one. My dad thought it was goofy and said there wasn't anywhere I could buy one anyway. Recently I took one of my favourite toques and the rim to make it a crown and I really like how it turned out
As a only casual Archie fan I always assumed Jughead's hat was the crown given out at Pop Tate's, like the paper Burger King crowns in our world. This explanation makes so much more sense, I honestly don't know where my crown parallel even can from.
I always loved Jughead's hat. Thought it was a paper crown for so long. But I can say it shows his individuality. Respects the past/who he is and doesn't care what others think.
As a Jughead cosplayer, I have a HUGE affinity for Jughead's hat, the DIY personalization aspect of it, and it's forgotten history in Americana culture. So I loved this video! P.S. For those of you want a knitted version of Jughead's beanie on Riverdale, grab the book "DomiKNITrix" for super cheap from Amazon. It has the simple pattern in there to knit one! I just got mine.
Jughead’s hat is iconic. My dad made me something similar fro one of his old fedoras when I was about 7 in 1957, so for me it’s quite nostalgic. In those days I bought every comic book I could afford (@ $.10) including Archie. Thanks for posting. You have a new subscriber.
I made a whoopee-cap-ish thing and said the same thing. XD It's gotten positive remarks from those who behold my glorious hat but that's mostly for my pins and not the hat concept itself. I like it at any rate! XD
Jughead is my absolute favourite character in anything ever I sort of knew about how his hat was probably made from a fedora but I didn’t know half as much as what you said in this video This was super interesting I loved it!
My late mother who grew up in the 30's and 40's once told me about those "Jughead hats" and her version more or less agrees with yours except according to her the hat of choice for "Jugheading" wasn't the snap brim Fedora but rather the bowler or the dirbe witch is why you don't see the typical indentations in the crown like the fedora or the fedora's oval shape and why it is instead smoothly rounded on top and sides like a beanie or yarmica. At any rate a fun topic! Thanks for posting!
I think both are valid ways to make a whoopee cap! And a little steam smooths it out. I can confirm, I made one a while back because I became obsessed with all things Archie last year
I pretty much love Archie with a passion and it's good to see actually getting to talk about them, especially Jughead's hat. Another thing: what does the "S" on Jughead's shirt mean?
adoboisnotwhite From what I had read years ago, one of Archie Comics' famous artists (whose name I forget right now) was the one to slap that "S" on Jughead's shirt but it was never revealed what the purpose was. Sadly the secret died with him. Now, for all I know, there may be more known about it these days (maybe someone close to the artist had revealed more since I've read about the letter) but I'm not sure.
@@Ry-nq4iy It didn't mean "straight", because he's that neither in sexuality nor in personality. He's aroace and he's also a weirdo. It means "survive" is my takeaway from that page
i know next to nothing about Archie aside from Jughead has a hat and eats burgers so I always assumed it was some kind of paper fast food crown that you'd get in a restaurant. this was genuinely interesting to learn about. great video.
To those wanting to "buy" a cap, this kinda misses the point. Whoopee caps are (were) working class beanies made out of discarded hats, so they were worn by kids trying to look like tough street urchins (like wearing jeans low). When the trend became commercialised the street-cred appeal disappeared.
Love it, Scott! I always wondered about why he wore a crown. This was great research, and answered a question I've had since my childhood days. Keep it up!
Jughead's hat is a time machine!. I distinctively reading Jughead years ago and they made it canon for like a few stories. But it was always the explanation I liked in the comics.
When I first read Archie comic books, Jughead's hat was NOT in fashion where I lived but his hat reminded me of my cousin's white US Navy SAILOR HAT with its turned-up brim. I never heard of pins on hats (such as you describe, which remind me of Olympic enamel pins) but women wore hats with hat pins to keep them on even on windy days. When JFK became a top celebrity in the late 1950s, he never wore hats even if it was snowing and so the trend of hat-wearing went entirely out of fashion never to return. Thanks for the memory, Mr NerdSync!
I've been watching your channel for a while now and I don't know why it took me so long to stumble onto this vid! I have a ton of hats...and an old fedora...i just may go make one of these!
Also, if a head is a "pitcher" as in: "little pitchers have big ears" ... and pitcher = a jug, then, Jughead with his large ears, becomes a person with a "jug" head.
I love it, i always wanted to try and make my own like that. I always loved Archie comics cause they were the only series sold at the grocery store. I could re-up literally every time we went shopping.
You got it right. When my father was young ( 1950's) he had a hat just like Jugheads. Many kids did. Mothers would sew buttons and such on them, it was a fad.
I've never read Archie before, but the fact that they've hung on to a historical tidbit like that in the face of all comics revamping themselves for new times is super awesome and impressive ! I might have to check them out. Thanks for posting about a more out of main stream comic Scott!
I'm excited for that Archie video. I didn't care about Archie for a long time, but when Riverdale was released, I started doing research and found this series so charming. I hope to learn more about it.
There was an episode where the girls tried to make Jughead's stylish. He convinced the stylish guy that his way of dress was better. Basically a red sweater, trousers, and he gave his hat to the stylish guy saying I can just make a new one out of an old hat of my dad's.
Great history info about his hat, mate! Jughead is my favourite Archie character ever, with his lucky whoppee cap on! If I was at Pop's Chock'Lit Shoppe, I would like to chat and eat with Jughead, while I'll have my whoppee cap on. I thought to myself, "What would happen if Jughead met Shaggy and Pinkie Pie?" I would find funny and exciting, because they could make a really good team!
Thank you so much for this! I absolutely love this, I absolutely love Jughead, & Archie Comics PERIOD! As a matter of fact, I cannot fall asleep at night, without listening to the "Archie Andrews Radio Shows" from the 40's! With Bob Hastings as Archie, & Hal Stone as Jughead! I've always wondered about the origins of his hat! So again...thank you so much!
Interesting to know. Looking forward to the Archie Comics video :). I also prefer this voice-over format. Good format, very interesting to know that Fedoras was used like that.
We were still making those caps in the sixties and adorning them with buttons and soda bottle caps. Back then, soda bottle caps had an inner liner of cork instead of rubbery plastic. You could push the cork into cap from either side of the hat and it would stay in place. That thing would never come off.
Glad to have found this. I love finding some bit of kitshy history like this. We are going to knit the jughead hat, as the new version looks knitted. But, now I like the old felt hat version better, and it looks far more fun to make. I will know what to do next time I see an old hat at the thrift store.
Love your videos! So true that even if you don't read the comics you see Juggies hat and you KNOW its Archie! As a young kid I did think the whoopee hat was a little silly; Of course now that Rivedale came out with merch and a Jughead beanie I had to buy it.
Another bit of trivia about the Woopee hat also sometimes called a Busby hat, Jeff Goldblum wore one in his very first movie, the 1974 movie Staring Charles Bronson in "Death Wish." Goldblum played a character called Freak #1. Goldblum's hat Had no adornments or buttons at all.
That was really really readily cool. I love history, even pop culture history. Thanks. I also saw that Andy Griffith character and thought he was based on jughead, never realizing that they were both representing a common style type of the time. Jagheads!
I didn't think about his hat at all but the origin you just gave makes me think its pretty cool! the fact that it used to be a fedora I would have never guessed!
Back in the 60s when I was in elementary school I liked to read Archie comics. My dad explained to me how the hat was made out of an old hat and then we made one. I wore it all the time for a couple of years.
I knew it was a fedora, but didnt understand why had the jagged form, and this also makes lots of sense with his nickname. Jugghead is my favorite Archie character.
so I'm a bit late to the party, but Scott's mention of getting interested in hats inspired me to share this little piece of hat trivia: I'm from Montreal, Canada and there is a hat store called Henri Henri which has been in business since 1932 and is still going strong. I was shopping there once and overheard one of the employees telling a patron that back in the day (I believe some time in the 40's or early 50's), Henri Henri had an offer given to local hockey players. Of course, hockey has always been very popular here and the Montreal Canadians were huge back then, even moreso than today. The offer: Any player who would score 3 goals in one game would get a free hat! Hence the term: "Hat trick" *curtsy*
I really like this video I used to read Archie back in my day in the sundays comics pages here in México and I recently bought the Jughead comic on this new re-design and its really cool to finally understand where that hat means and what it stands for
Turbo Ferret87 If you're wondering why he wears that, it's actually simply the same reason magneto does, to prevent psychic attacks. Or if you're Brett Ratner, he wants to keep his face pretty

Character buttons are a whole subject in themselves and were around at least 120 years ago. Cigar boxes offered them as premiums with Sunday comics characters on them.
and that's a way to someone a smoker
I-... what are the issues called?
Jughead's hat is like Superman's briefs. Outwardly anachronistic, but without them the characters don't look right.
It would be like Superman's " S " . Even without the S ...everyone knows who the man of steel is.

Was thinking the same.
Archie
A for Archie also makes sense.
A for Asexual Pride
Dan Walsh doesn't he wear an "A" on a shirt? (Never read the comics, but he wore a shirt with an "A" on it in Riverdale)

Jughead was always my favorite in the Archie comics and also my favorite in Riverdale.

Awesome video as always Scott, I love that you're expanding past only DC and Marvel videos (although I love those too) :)
I will always love superheroes, but sometimes it's nice to explore outside capes and masks.
Of course, I totally get it. Besides, regardless of the topic, Nerdsync always puts out some quality content!
I thought it was a buger king crown
Seems in character, haha

Jesse Marsh same here.
Satan's fake crown.
I remember in the 1960s Jughead had a short one-page or two-page comic where he explained how to make your own Jughead hat from an old fedora hat.
You all are becoming quite the investigative news team. Nice work.
I honestly thought that his hat was a crown made out of tin foil for some reason
In some comics it looks crumbly and on some covers it looks shiny so I don't blame you

I've always loved Jughead's hat. And since Riverdale happened, I've been wanting to learn how to crochet one of my very own to wear.

Of course, hockey has always been very popular here and the Montreal Canadians were huge back then, even moreso than today.
The offer: Any player who would score 3 goals in one game would get a free hat!
Hence the term: "Hat trick"

I have an old felted hat that lost it's shape. I'm really tempted to make it into one of these. I always loved that hat.
I love Jugheads' hat, and I have always wondered what it was so thanks!
I really like this video I used to read Archie back in my day in the sundays comics pages here in México and I recently bought the Jughead comic on this new re-design and its really cool to finally understand where that hat means and what it stands for
I've unfortunately never read the Archie comics but I love the show and an thinking or recreating his hat.
"Angels with Dirty Faces" is one of my favorite Bowery Boys/Dead End Kids movie. Cagney was great in it.
I cried a little when I saw the 'Comic Misconceptions' intro. :'D
Have always wondered this thanks Scott !
Wow. This is actually very interesting, I always wondered what was up with that hat.
i started getting into archie after watching riverdale but i’m really interested in the comics and i recently bought one off ebay, so.. yeah
always loved the hat! great video
I thought you were going to talk about juggernaut's helmet.
Someday... Maybe... I don't know.
NerdSync maybe include magneto's helmet with it
That's not a bad idea!
I am the Jughead, bastich !
Turbo Ferret87 If you're wondering why he wears that, it's actually simply the same reason magneto does, to prevent psychic attacks. Or if you're Brett Ratner, he wants to keep his face pretty
Yes more Archie videos please, maybe even Sabrina, she's my favorite from Archie Comics
Interesting! Very informed answer to my question! Thanks!
Great video, I had no idea there was more to Jughead's hat then I thought :)
ON THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW GOOBER WORE A HAT JUST LIKE JUGHEAD.😅
nice vid on my long time favorite Archie character
