What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Blare]

For the final day of StingyPendence Week I’m wearing a not-so-stingy 1950s/60s Disney Italian Milan. See you all for StingyMas in a few months.

Making its public debut today, while I was chauffeuring my wife to various garden centers, was this 40s Super-Lux grade Portis. Missing its lining, but still a gem. 2.75" bound brim, and a crown that's 4" all around.

What a fine chauffeur's hat that Portis makes. It must be some comfort to savour as you see your wealth being damaged at garden centres.
It could be worse Mark.............

My Susquehana bespoke tops out a favourite shirt on this gloriously sunny day.

My goodness, that brim seems to be getting wider! You're not weaving extra straw onto it, are you, Steve? Very cool.

Oh, hellz yes!!!!!!!

Steve, Thanks! Great looking Hornskov Serene Straw Hat from you today!

Thanks for all the likes and comments guys.

I think you all might be seeing some more of the Serene before the summer is over

O. F. Hess "Praga", possibly late 1930s. This Soft Felt was made by Karel Misík Husinec / Hussinetz, Czechoslovakia (South Bohemia and under the Austrian Hungarian Empire up to WWI) . Karel Misik acquired the O. F. Hess Karlin / Karolinenthal, Cadastral Area of Prague, Czechoslovakia (Bohemia and under the Austria Hungarian Empire up to WWI) from his uncle / founder Andrew Felix Hess in 1927. This Soft Felt is from my 2015 NOS Czech find.

O. F. Hess Husinec / Hussinetz, Czechoslovakia / South Bohemia, Wooden Frame Cardboard Box from my 2015 NOS Czech Find. This is how hats were sent in mass in the time period.

what if you scanned a nice straw for the pattern and applied that to some artwork.... An actual hat weave would be cool... particularly if was the actual hat in a pic
