    Back in the day (1980's) I use to wear a black beret all the time. It was a common item worn by members of a rather large motorcycle cub that I use to ride with.

    During the 90's I use to wear a "Roger's Rangers" green beret, converted into a clan bonnet (I'll add image later...photobucket is off-line for maintenance ).

    Haven't worn one in years, unless you count a Balmoral

    As promised here's the old "Rogers Rangers" forest green beret I use to wear
    (circa 1999 - with my then 3 week old daughter):
