Hobbits in Hats

Los Angeles, CA - Famed reality television star Jack Osbourne was spotted with actor pal Elijah Wood out on the town. Both entertainers were sporting the Tundra Gear Tundra hat in black faux fur as they strolled up and down shopping mecca Melrose Ave.
67 year old shop owner Jason Venfope commented, "It was great seeing Frodo out in front of my store. I wish my grand-daughter were here to see him in his cute little furry hat. She would have probably gotten a big kick out of it. My only disappointment however is that he wasn't wearing sandals. I would have liked to see for myself just how hairy hobbit feet are."
When reminded that Elijah Wood is not really a hobbit but rather an actor Venfope responded, "Yeah, and I'm not really a struggling business owner, I'm an actor too. We're all actors. But still, it would have been great to see his feet."
Other onlookers weren't so confused by Wood's profession and were more impressed with the duo's choice of head wear. Charlene Robinson commented, "Both Elijah and Jack really have a great sense of style. I mean, its like, you know, one of the colder days of the year in LA. And like, I wouldn't know what to wear to stay warm and maintain my own distinct look. But they did. I mean, you know..."
Los Angeles stylist and fashionista Rhonda Beckett has called the hats the next big thing. She says "These hats are so unique, but also so practical. They evoke a sense of individuality and at the same time keep you warm. Its funny, because these hats aren't really appropriate for the type of weather we get in LA, but people in this town are stupid enough to let their desire to fit in dictate their clothing choices. I think with a good publicist and the right celebs dawning these things, I wouldn't be surprised if these become the next Uggs!"
Tundra Gear CEO Aras Baskauskas was not available for comment, but his secretary did mention that the company is getting ready to introduce its newest line of fanny packs come spring.

Come to TundraGear and buy a hobbit a hat!
