Fezzes only look uncool on uncool people. Clothes do not make or break the man (or woman) and vice versa.
That said, a white jumpsuit with sequins only looks good on Elvis.

Fezzes have about as much to do with "tiki" as we non-Polynesians do, meaning anything goes
based on individual tastes, not polls or popular opinion.
"Tiki" as we know it is a co-opted, corrupted subculture any way you look at it.
I'm not a Muslim, Middle Easterner or Shriner, either. And yet I own a bunch of fezzes. It was part of my Thrillville trademark. I even have a custom made fez from Fez-O-Rama, which I cherish.

As a matter of aesthetic choice, I don't wear my fez hats much anymore, except sometimes when I host my monthly movie nites at Forbidden Island, and I write my pulp novels in the nude(;), but nobody tells me where and when I should wear anything, whether it's Vic Bergeron or Vic Valentine, Private Eye.
Cheers & aloha.
