Well, Jimmy, it's about time you obtained a vintage hat that is in decent shape. :rolleyes: ;)
That is wonderful. Much more my idea of an authentic western hat than the big tacos we see today. Thanks for the detail shots and description. Congrats!! :eusa_clap
Crap! That's superb. Yeah, lower prices than that routinely occur for nibbled stingy felts from the '70s but for an old boater in good shape, that's a very good buy. :eusa_clap
Amen to that. I totally agree. Makes 'em more my own when I have to put a little effort in to bring 'em back around. Great eye for hat flesh you've got there, Scott. :eusa_clap
Well, I finally own a topper.
'Twas a local thrift store score for only $10-. Gotta' love that. I've wanted one of these since I was about seven years old but this one will probably only temporarily be in my collection.
A decent Dobbs, not incredibly old, I'd think. In good shape as far...
Wow, deej', let me add my compliments to you on that Cavanagh. Wonderful hat and you really look great in it. Of all the hats and brands I've got, I don't have a Cav'. All the ones I've had a chance at were stingy brimmed so I passed. THAT is one perfectly classic fedora and I'm a bit jealous in...
lol
Yeah, I gotta' admit I was a little more 'aware' of that hat than others I might wear but it did just great. The tendency is to baby the thing since it is so fine and thin but after several times wearing it I realized it's surprisingly strong. IT was great to air it out, so to speak.
I've got an old Wormser panama with one but that's another story. :D
Had a wonderful time with Bob, Kim, Indy & the 'Fam'. Glad to be back home though also.
Hats I'm taking on the cruise:
Arcentales Montecristi blocked by Optimo:
Stetson 7X (Hacked by me :D ):
Stetson Privateer (In keeping with the Caribbean theme):
Cheapie roll-up panama:
My bags are packed and I'm ready to go to the port in the AM. Finally had some time to catch up on a bunch of great posts from everybody the last few days. See you after the weekend...
Hats I've been wearing over the last few days:
I'm kinda' late to this party - been so busy slavin' in the garden and then we had a public showing over the weekend, blah, blah...
Jimmy, that is SOME hat. Thanks for showing it. It's a wonderful sample of one extreme of the art form. I wouldn't have the guts to wear it but I can understand...
