What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Rollin Rains]

The Dalton is the winner for me. The Vaiato and Cervo are no slugs, either.

I wore my Wolfbrae Panama today for a visit to the Premium Outlet shopping centre as the rainy season went into remission for a day.

The temperature got up to 30°C, so I was grateful for the shade the hat provided. Not ideal for driving, though, so I took my cheese cutter along, too View attachment 710730
Etsuko wore a Maxim.

After a big late lunch/early dinner, I got some exercise with a brisk one hour walk in my Tula palm leaf hat (my regular summer gardening hat).
The rice has been planted (so the mozzies are out and about).

I did a circuit of our local pond.

This morning's choice of hats is this Royal Stetson that I recently took a chance on & boy am I ever glad I did. The seller said he was a size 7-1/8 and that the hat was too small for him, they guessed it a 7 or possibly 6-7/8... said they couldn't find any size tag. That alone probably kept the bidding low and I was able to win this one for $53.00 !!
Nothing but grins when it arrived yesterday morning and was actually a 7-1/8 that had shrunk slightly and fit me fine. "Yes sir...I'd rather be lucky than good any day ! "
Happy Father's Day to all y'all Dads...hope ya have a good 'un !

Thanks, Gary. That panama you're wearing is a real looker. I feel jealousy setting in.

Thanks back at you Stefan. You know that if the envy overtakes you, you can always reach out to Robert for one of your own! I have one more in the works.
That said, the only modern/custom hat I recall seeing you in is the Penumbra. I truly wish my head leant itself as much as yours to vintage hat sizes.

I could reach out to Robert, but I still have three panamas in the works by Penumbra. I'll wait for those to happen first.

"My father was a man of great piety, had an excellent understanding; and was govern'd in his conduct by Humanity and kind Benevolence...My Father was a man of Industry and brought up his children to business. Early, very early, when I should have been in pursuit of Knowledge, I was digging into the Bowels of the Earth after Wealth." Nathanael Greene

Father's Day today brought a fashion show for my wife. Our daughter is getting married in 3 weeks and, as with any religious occasion of significance for Orthodox Jews, we wear our hats. My question to her was which one she wanted to see in the wedding photos for the remainder of our lives. I presented 9 candidates, including 2 Akubras (reshaped Adventurer and Stylemaster), a Borsalino Classico, an Agnoulita, a Guerra 1855 and others.
Some of the candidates pictured here.

From this august group, knowing nothing about the brand I was showing her, what did she select?



A Will Leather Goods Handmade that I picked up for $25. Apparently this is the representation of the Jewish fedora in 2025 that I wear best. Who'd a thunk it?

Disney for me today.
Happy Father's Day to you and yours.
