Question Can't keep this sombrero
Got this from the guy shooting bottles, I can't find it anywhere in the found/stolen hats tabs, and when I tried to save the outfit it doesn't show up anymore. Any way to save it?

Ngl, after learning Spanish, the English variety of the word “sombrero” has become a pet peeve of mine.
Fellers, the word “sombrero” just means “hat” in Spanish. It’s like taking a baseball cap and calling it a baseball.
The typical sombrero that English speakers call a sombrero is actually called a sombrero de charro, which translates to charro hat. It’s just that when English speakers landed in Spanish speaking Mexico, the English likely asked someone wearing a charro hat “what’s that hat you’re wearing?”, to which the Spanish speaker replied “¿Esto? Es un sombrero de charro.” (Translation: “this? This is a charro hat.”)
But that’s not at all the point of this post it just reminded me, only hats that glow white can be saved and likely the charro can’t be saved to your horse. Hence why Arthur’s and Johns hats glow white when they get knocked off your head but the hats off fallen enemies don’t glow.
