Why does Jimmie Allen always wear a hat?
When asked about his favorite accessories by New York Magazine, Jimmie Allen was pretty candid and honest about the items he cares about most in life. Describing the hat he was wearing during the interview, he said, “I always wear a hat. I used to wear fedoras back in the day, then switched over to cowboy hats, but this one is kind of a mix between a cowboy hat and a fedora."
"It’s like a cowboy hat up top, but instead of the ends folding up at the sides like on a cowboy hat, it’s straight all around, which is actually really hard to find," he continued. "I first saw this hat on someone else while I was working on a show and I was like, ‘I need to get that.’ I probably own 13 of them now. I wore it on my album cover.”
It sounds like Jimmy just appreciates the look of having a nice hat on, and there's nothing deeper to his fashion choice than that.

One of the other accessories Jimmie always has on him is a purple scarf. According to Taste of Country, Jimmie carries the scarf tied to his belt loop as a memorial to his late grandmother, who passed away in 2014.
"Every time I play a show, you will see a purple scarf tied to my belt loop, and that was my grandmom's scarf," he told the publication, noting how integral his grandmother and mother's support has been in making him the star that he is today.
According to Motor Trend, he also cares as much about cars as he does about accessories. He revealed he feels connected to Ford trucks and admitted that it was a Chevy Malibu that helped him make it in the city of Nashville.

Is Jimmie Allen hiding anything under all those hats?
There's nothing he’s hiding at all. His Instagram also reveals what life is like for him behind the scenes when he’s not performing on stage.
