I've gone to lots of secondhand stores, but I've never once seen a raspberry beret for sale.
I've gone to lots of secondhand stores, but I've never once seen a raspberry beret for sale.
At this point, I'm wondering if there is enough of a quantity of raspberry berets in secondhand stores to identify the kind you would find in one.
Floppy, brightly-colored berets were popular in the late 60s and early 70s. I am unfortunately old enough to remember seeing some of them on the street, at school, on TV, etc. The character "Rerun", played by Fred Berry on the show "What's Happening!!", wore a red one.
He does look like the kind of guy that would be fun to go riding with down by Old Man Johnson's farm.
You could see a lot of fashion from thw 60's and 70's in thrift stores all the way through the 90's. Then hipster style became mainstream and now all you can find in thrift stores is worn out suburban trash that was originally bought from a Ross or TJ Maxx.
If it were warm, I wouldn't wear much more.
Technically, a military surplus store could be considered a second hand store. What militaries use berets that could be considered "raspberry" in colour?
Well not anymore since that song came out. =P
Because of the song, any raspberry berets in stores would now immediately get bought and then resold online for 10x the price
Or more likely it would go missing from the donated goods pile, and then get resold online

Like the hat? Try a military surplus store instead of a regular thrift store.
