WOW...Can I say it again....WOW!
Marc, After looking at countless hats on the web I have to say that I am not easily impressed. Like the others I have looked at all sorts of hats custom and otherwise including yours. This hat IS impressive....
The hat in question is made by Knox, this is the original post I made with a few more pictures. It is size 7 1/8, brim 2", open crown 5", Grosgrain Ribbon 2 1/8", dark chocolate brown, Felt dark coffee brown. Here is one more with it on.
Note that I have not done anything to the bash as I sort...
as I found out....of course I also found out that a friend just got a hold of one of the props. I mentioned that if he's getting props I want a certain hat. Doubt I would ever see it but what the heck I had to ask....lol
Thanks Bingles that Dobbs is posted in the Porkpie thread with before and after shots.
Today I chose to ignore the weather and join the Hawaiian shirt thread.....with my Fed IV Deluxe in Moonstone.
Just some quick thoughts.....
First off even with a stingy brim you will get Indy comments though not as many.
Second, ignore them.....we're talking about what you like not them...
OR third, politely let them know that it is not a Indy hat. It is in fact a blah, blah, blah and they're eyes...
So I recently picked up this Knox from the bay and I finally took a couple of pictures of it. When I bid on it my intentions were to turn it into a porkpie. But after receiving it I didn't want to do that any longer. This is the first hat that I have acquired that just fit out of the box as it...
You know, for the longest time I just couldn't figure out what I wanted to do with this hat. The brim was short and it was much like one if my favorites. So now that it is a porkpie it has found a home....oh, I put the feather back in and wore it to work today
End of the second week at the new job and casual day! It actually hit 75 degrees here today and I was captivated by the little blue flowers we get every spring.
Quick alteration
So, I like Porkpies but didn't have one worth posting....BUT, I suddenly while thinking about transforming a recient aquisition I rememberd that another hat of mine would be a very good practice piece as i am not wearing it at all at the moment. So, a bit later...
lol, I was bidding on that De Pinna and the bay decided that I hadn't been on in quite some time and locked my account in the middle of bidding....it was easily fixed but I'm starting to wonder about that site. Gone for some time? what 2 minutes is a long time? Oh well I guess the fates say I...
FFF, it's looking great! I have a deluxe in moonstone and like you plan on getting another .....and yes many of us will shorten your name, at least it's not KKK....lol
Good morning Bob,
I like the looks of a Whippet more and more. You know if it was mine I would just wear it some and see what it did. If it didn't start feeling right after a bit then scare it into behaving with a steaming. It may feel like its sitting low but it looks good!
