So, I've known this word for like forever because it's used back in my hometown 30 mins from the Canadian border in upstate NY. My boyfriend is from downstate, about 2 hours north of NYC. He came home with a touque all of the firemen were given at the firehouse. I told him it was very cool. He proudly announced "That's called a touque". I had to keep myself from laughing and told him "Yes, dear, I know they are, my dad always wore a touque".

I was thinking about this and I noticed that on TV when there's a bankrobbery they say "knit cap" or "ski cap" or "winter hat" even back home, it's never "touque"

Touque, I used to be annoyed by it but now it's almost a funny word.

I don't know why I'm posting this, I'm just enjoying the word touque tonight lol
