Head gear.
Today’s photo from the hip comes from the Outremont neighborhood of Montreal. While Mike and I were seeking out the famous bagels, we passed several Jewish men wearing fur hats. I was puzzled as to why so many men would be wearing such warm head gear in the middle of summer (it was a hot day!), but after reading a bit more about shtreimlech, I think it must have been a special occasion.
