What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[TimmyV]

I'm constantly amazed at how many small hat brands there were back in the hey-day of hat wearing. This new to me Natley Hat of Distinction rivals most Stratoliner or Open Road out there. It just arrived moments ago and all I did was give it a good brushing and bashed the hat the way I like 'em.
TGIF y'all !

Caffeine run under an Optimo Traditional West in Silver Cloud. Got a nice comment from the coffee ladies who see me most mornings.

Happy friday to all! It’s gloomy, grey and damp but it IS Friday... we survived another week. Hadnt had the Akubra Lightning Ridge out for a while so here we go. Always loved the fuller, slightly rounded crown on this one View attachment 702788 View attachment 702787 View attachment 702785 View attachment 702786

If you ever need a liner to match that shirt Rand’s can help you out .

I really like that felt/ribbon color combination. Nice.

Stetson Sovereign Twenty. It was a Christmas present from my wife a couple of years ago. Of all the hats I own, this is probably my favorite (if a favorite is possible).

Thanks!
It's funny you say that... I just got the hat in today. It came with a faux leather band that I promptly removed. The band in the pics is one of a couple of temporary bands I've made for just such occasions. When I put it on, it kinda surprised me with how well the ribbon color worked. I think I will make a permanent one from the same ribbon.
Also, the ribbon is a bit of a chameleon - It's an olive color in person, but usually looks brown or dark grey in pictures.

Oh yeah, that one definitely works. I can see some of the olive trying to show itself in the picture of it on your head. That's what I was looking at when I posted. I have a similar Canada Biltmore Senator, but in Gray and black. I'll post a picture of it when I wear it next. Yours looks a lot richer than mine, though.

I had a really nice day off with my wife today, we ran errands and went and had coffee. It was a perfect day for my unlined Knox Vagabond.

Esther Weis https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/esther-weis-millinery.86447/ made this hat for me. She matched the linen suit colour just from a photograph. The hat is modelled on The Stetson Stratoliner, and a fine hat she made of it too. Love it.
