I never thought the day would come that I would see a hat that looked like it should be packaged up in a candy store, yet still look unbelievably stylish.

Perhaps my eyes are playing tricks on me, but I can’t see anything but [Sour Patch Kids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sour-patch-kids-monster-heads) when I see these [Lacoste](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lacoste-5) Wool Mannish Hats. They are available now at Ripe Japan, and I would suggest picking one up if you are headed to the horse track anytime soon. Check out more on the Lacoste Wool Mannish Hats at the links below.
