What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Judgmentalist]

Today I'm wearing this Hufvud "Ragnar" that I recently got from eBay.

I really like this hat. I like the shape, I like the color combo of the felt and ribbon, I like the chunky bow, I like the dark liner and the felt quality and finish are nice. I believe this is a rabbit felt, if I recall correctly. Nice and supple, not too stiff.

Good morning. I wore an Adam's Milan for my dog soirée. The hat wears light due to the grand leather sweat.

Non-hat content: I enjoyed morning coffee wearing a woven cap. Great warm weather option.

Back to the hat parade.

Cheers, Eric-

Cool, just bought a Boomerang in black which is what Akubra renamed the Kianda. Researching a bit as not many photos of the Boomerang.

Quite a handsome hat, and that bow is the bomb!

Was scanning the walls of hats for a good coffee hat, when I saw this one calling out "pick me! pick me!"

Starting off friday morning a bit differently.... A Stetson Boy Scout Campaign cover. This one wanted to develop a bit of a front/ rear swoop so I think it looks better than flat. Have thought about maybe adding some edge binding, flanging the brim and popping out the back of the crown and makng it a semi "There will be blood" tribute hat. Didnt have a ribbon when it came to live with me so I added a 5/8" ribbon with Campaign bow. Keep meaning to flatten the bow and sew it down, but so far the double sided tape has held it in place ok. only been a year or so... guess Im not in a hurry on this little thing lol.

So I re-creased the Borsalino Ecosan I posted about in the Brotherhood yesterday. It spent some time on my stretcher (just to grab a few more mm) and, voila, I'm wearing it today.

Today a "POET" just not THE Poet....I like this one a lot, but like a lot of their hats had little structure on the brim. So I spent time and re-flanged the brim (and of course pressed down the bow that they did absolutely nothing to). It is holding up well now. It is a nice rich dark brown with red overtones (much darker than it photographs)....I now like it a lot.

And of course the liner is well...awesome!

It's like their thing, I guess. All of mine are the same. Trademark move.

Glad that one is staying with you - beautiful hat

My heart refused to let go. Plus my son is a huge NYY fan, and he might actually keep it

My new boater came in. I acquired this from a vintage seller in LA papermoon. Its in pretty mint condition for its age. Its been difficult to find in my size 7 3/8. Not sure how I'm going to style it yet but the fit is on point.

Also could anybody help me pin down the decade?

Found a newspaper reference to Doutrich's from 1925 and another reference on pennlive that they closed in 1979.

Best I can do.

Dude! Nice one. I’ve been looking for one of these.

Thank you! I really fell in love with the ribbon on it. Im thinking seersucker shirt, linen pants, and white suede bucks should pair nicely
