What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

Love the color combo.

Did you steal the feather from Bob Roberts shop?

Nah this one came off a macaw at the shop where I get my birds groomed =)

I had my eye on the Brewster panama cuz it's on the shelf over at Village Hat Shop in downtown San Diego. What issues are there?

Im sure it's gonna vary from hat to hat but this brim is narrow with a god awful cup to the flange. Crown is too short and the pinches are poorly defined. Also some gaping in the weave. Be forewarned and try it on first. No way that hat is worth it's going retail price.

Good to know. Thanks for the heads up and sorry about the buyer's remorse =(

Mayser "Bristol" probably early 1960s.

Fantastic, Steve! A comparatively modern, just FANTASTIC look, especially with that shirt!!

 

[mayserwegener]

Wegener probably late 1920s.

Knox Premier Quality Milan... the only hat I own that was sold in Atlanta. Exceptionally clean.

Nirvana. Kill me now.

Kudos on that crown and matching feather color.

Holy cow! That's amazing!!

Kudos on that crown and matching feather color.

Thank you! I'm definitely proud of this one.

 

[FedOregon]

Bought it summer before last.

What's so bad about it? I can't tell from the pic... how does it compare to your Norwood? Is it mostly the price, or....

 

[FedOregon]

Actually, no. Agnoulita (AKA "The Hat Company") was giving me severely poor service due to an injury suffered by the shopkeeper. No dig against the company -- accidents happen -- but I figured I would give the store time to recover its groove before placing an order.

The fur on this one is from ManHatCo. I'll be calling them this weekend to see about that beaver fur they said they'd be offering...

You did it again, another excellent effort resulting in a top rate lid... and what a color! Love the navy!

 

[FedOregon]

Lil' Fed and I got some lunch and then headed to the range. Her request. We took a 9mm ***** and a 41 mag Freedom Arms model 97 revolver. She was punching bullseyes by the time we left.

Getting warm here, but we were in the shade for the most part. I wore the Wormser Milan and Lil' Fed wore her ~ late 50's/early 60's Royal Stetson... it's a so-called "beater" an ebay seller threw in as an extra after I got her the Knox Tom 'n' Jerry and the Stetson blue heathered felt Royal Stetson for her birthday. Some beater!

Ps. See my earlier reply to Blu Monkey.
