I know i'm not the only one who is sometimes baffled by what Hagrid chooses to wear. Where do you think his sense of style comes from?

The moleskin waistcoat, the pink umbrella, the hairy suit. Discuss.

I also like his clothing; it shows how he doesn't go with the flow, wearing his own style. He's not like normal wizards, wearing cloaks and robes and acting "wizardly". He's showing everyne hat you don't have to be like everyone else. He loves to clash with thers, so why not wear clashing clothes? It goes back to his childhood I think he wasn't like the others, and had no one to really show him what was normal.

I think its probably hard for him to find 'normal' wizarding like clothes.. with bieng a half-giant and all, but nonetheless, Hagrid just wouldn't be himself if he were in robes.. looking all dressy and grown up. He isn't really the type who honestly cares about what others think of him. Plus, as it has been mentioned, he grew up hanging around creatures more then humans. So, that would fit. All in all, Hagrid likes the way he dresses and so do I .

Well, it has all been said pretty much, but I too like his fashion sense. Have you ever heard of a fashionable giant? It would take far too much time to have nice clothes made for him due to his size and as he has demonstrated, he cares not of what the "upper class" kinds of people think about him. He's a rugged, forest guy, so he should wear rough and dirty clothes that show his lifestyle. He reminded me a lot of the Flinstones when he dressed up for the hearing for Buckbeak in POA. He also has grown up around Hogwarts and without parents, so he never had anyone criticizing his wardrobe, which made him think it was all perfectly fine and he need not change for anyone. I'm glad Hagrid dresses the way he does, because were he in fancy, nicer clothes, I doubt anyone would be able to take him seriously.

I love Hagrids clothing.. It shows like what others say doesn't bother him..
If people liked him for the lovable giant that he is , than the clothes he
wears would not be an issue .

Just out of curiosity.. Where did he get his clothes.. I was hoping he was going to hook up with madam Maxine..(GOF)..Everyone deserves to be happy
even giants

LOL that's a really good question! I wonder if he has to make them himself?

If he and Madame Maxime were to have children, do you think they'd dress more comfortable like him or more well-kept like her?
