What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Who me?]

This morning I went with one of the newest additions to my collection. Stetson 3X with Vita-Felt process. The felt on this hat is remarkably soft and pliable. The lavender color felt goes well with the lavender brim binding and 1" silver grey ribbon. 2 7/"8" brim with 4 1/2" crown as shown.

Killin‘ it

 

[Who me?]

Been a long couple days and I look it. Came home, put on my favorite hat and fired up a stogie.
Been fiddling around with the fit and I think it’s there. Sure is comfortable at the moment.
PB Shady Oaks Banker Special 100, revamped to my specs by Mike Miller. Took forever, but he did a great job. I pinched the front a little deeper and lengthened it to a little past center. Crown is soft. Very receptive to manipulation.
Feeling a little better already.

Take the time to brush and reshape your Barbisio; you’ll find it quite rewarding.
As for me, I’ll give my Borsalino a good brushing, and then I’ll look for someone who will enjoy wearing it.
It was a real curiosity—buying it and having it on hand to examine—which also allowed me to put together a brief historical overview, especially since I happen to own another Italian-made hat, also in a Western style, that was produced for the same shop in Valencia.

What size is it? Just in case you know… lol

Hello all, it's been a little while. I am glad to see all is well in hat land. Putting away the straws and fumbling through the boxes looking for the right hat. I'll get it together after a couple of weekends of recataloging the inventory .

Good morning hat folks. Thanks for sharing. I have enjoyed the hat parade this morning.

Here are some hats I have worn the past couple days.

A Stetson 3X Mode edge fedora.

A Stetson Bantam.

A Champ Supreme.

A VS Wandere (granite beaver felt).

A Knox Twenty.

A Stetson Stratoliner. Not all Stratoliners are the same. This fedora has a 2 7/8 " brim. I crease the crown "high" to match the brim width.

A Manson gilled felt (blue felt).

I came across this Napoleonic tie clip and thought it might pair well with this marine blue Tirard that came my way via @steur last year.

Good morning. A dog soirée was enjoyed while under the brim of a 30's Stetson Vogue.

Morning coffee and filling the feeders was under the brim of a Mallory Ten. The unique ribbon treatment makes the fedora fun to wear.

Cheers, Eric -

What a pair, Eric!!
