Picked this up recently from the UK on Ebay. It is about 20 years old. I liked it because it looks older.- Sox

Thanks Douglas. My dad said he didn't wear the side cap much, so it is in great condition. The officers' hat is in good condition as well except for some wear on the sweat band. Too bad he didn't get to keep his flying helmet.:( The RCAF look very much like the RAAF caps. But that is to be... -

Great pictures. My Dad was in the RCAF and flew in a bomber. I've seen pictures of him with a similar flight helmet. He has his officers hat which I hope to inherit some day. -

it is a cowboy hat
Well I took the plunge and cut the brim from 4" to 2 3/4". I like the ribbon that is on it but thinking about trying a wider one just to see what it will look like. By the way, it was a Stetson cowboy hat made in Calgary, Canada around 1980. Now it is........?? Whatever it is I like it better. -

How many hats do you own?
I only have three hats (not counting baseball caps). Hope to have more but I have limited storage space. There seems to be many of you that have 30+ hats. I am wondering how you store them in order to keep them from losing their shape and collecting dust, moths etc. -
