    Had anyone ever been tempted to stop hat wearing?

    I read this original post a few hours ago and it keeps rolling around in my mind. Here are my thoughts on aved's dilemma. I think one factor may well be your location. From what I understand, it is much more uncommon to see a man in a brimmed felt hat in England than it is here in the States...

    Boy, is that uncommon. Frustrates me how many hat racks (even old ones) won't accommodate hats.

    By the way, Mr. P., sleep or no sleep you looked great in that lid. And Garrett, that Borsalino is fantastic. The way the light plays on that color and those shapes. Man, that's a beauty.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    It's a 'welded seam' meaning it's taped from behind. Oh, and this evening as I was fiddling with the hat and checking under the sweat band I noticed that this is one of those types that is buttoned into the hat. Five wafer thin buttons inside the crown attach through eyelets in material behind...

    GWD, I enjoyed seeing and reading your post. It's great when one of us gets a hat he's/she's really been wanting to own. Congrats!!

    Naw, although that is a cool image. Too cool as is if you know what I mean. The hang up I've got about doing more of these is that most times the photos are well known and absolutely perfect 'art' already so my adaptation seems gratuitous. It's off-topic (hatless) but my favorite one of these I...

    You'd hardly recognize him since he's been assigned to the covert "Men In Bonnets" division. A master of disguise, he is. While this photo was taken he was heard muttering, "I make this look good."

    Recently Acquired Borsalino Hats

    Sight unseen, but relying on experience gained here at the Lounge (mostly viewing closed out auctions in the Ebay Victories, etc. thread), would I be way off to say they would likely average $200 per hat?

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I usually make it 'Western Wednesday' but I just wasn't feelin' it. This is an odd, but nicely made old Warner & Co. fedora. No liner or printing of any kind on the sweat band - only the little metal badge at the back seam. [huh] It's good, lightweight felt with plenty of crown and a very tidy...

    I hope others keep contributing to this thread. I like seeing all types of artwork. Thank you for the compliments. I have enjoyed doing a series of these style of portraits of my favorite Blues artists. I do use photographs for reference. The watercolor of SRV is out of the style of the rest...
