    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Not sure what’s happening. I can’t see any of your photos on this page or WHAYWT. Not on the iPhone, not on the iPad. It seems that others can. This happened once before.

    The Akubra Cattleman can only mean one thing… Barbecue time. Texas style spare ribs.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Cheesecutter (there shouldn’t have been a space in the original post - spellcheck) is the regular name for that kind of flatcap in New Zealand. It wasn’t so long ago that I thought it was just the regular name all around the world. Anyhow, I love the name and I’ll be damned if I’m going to...

    Day two in Nara. We visited the Kasuga Taisha shrine, a world heritage site. I’ll try to get some pictures up in the Fedoras Afield page lat, but for now…Same hats as yesterday. I called Etsuko’s a Tula yesterday. It’s actually a Maxim. Mine remains an Akubra Range. Deer roam free around...

    Hornskov Hats - custom Danish hatter

    Actually the bow is different, too. Quite a few differences after all. Your pinch seems a bit deeper, too. I guess they are similar dimensions, though.

    Hornskov Hats - custom Danish hatter

    It does look similar, but I think the brim curl is a bit different. Also, yours appears to be a diamond crown, whereas the Mogul is a centre dent. Here’s a comparison of our two hats. Yours followed by mine.

    Here’s a video I found on the Uwanabe Kofun - the one we walked around yesterday. It has English subtitles.

    Thanks guys. Much appreciated . Nathan, I believe the tombs are man made islands. The most famous examples can be found in Sakai City in Osaka Prefecture. They were registered as a World Heritage Site a few years back. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozu_Tombs

    You won’t be disappointed. The Mogul is a classy hat. I love mine, and it’s Etsuko’s favourite of my Hornskovs. Did you go beaver or blend?

    Three day weekend and a spur of the moment trip to Nara. We booked a slightly out of the way hotel. Cheap, but quite a large room. Took some beer and wine along and bought dinner at the supermarket to eat in our room. Enjoyed a couple of dips in the jacuzzi on the balcony, and took a wander...

    Took my Bailey’s Toyo out for shopping yesterday, but failed to get a photo. Here’s the hat. I washed the liners of the recent purchases. The water was quite dark brown when I finished the first wash. After the second wash, a lighter brown. The liners still don’t look great, but after...

    Here’s hoping for positive results. Edit: Just saw the results. Sounds good. If only the long covid would sort itself out.

    To be honest, the audio is a little annoying, but as far as I can tell he seems to just hold one end in place and push the single hook through the other end of the ribbon.
