I want to cosplay Edd, but I'm having the hardest time finding his hat XP I've found a few Slouch Beanies that would work, but the best one is like 50 British pounds, and none of them have the lines on it. I'm not great with sewing or anything either, so does anyone know of a place I could get a hat that looks identical to his? Also, if anyone knows where I could find purple shorts (cargo or denim) that'd be awesome Amazon has some but they're $100...

Do you an Army & Navy outlet nearby? I paid about a fiver for a plain Thinsulate black beanie.

That bottom turnover unfolds to make it more like Edd's, and you can always stitch/glue/iron the stripes on.

Yeah I would say just get a basic hat and buy some fabric paint and just paint the lines on ^^ Awesome cosplay idea btw, love Ed, Edd & Eddy!

Yeah, I was given the idea of using fabric paint for the lines, which makes it easier for sure. I'll try on some beanies at walmart, target, and I do have an army surplus store in my area, so I'll go there too. Now just to search for purple shorts o.e
