Great looking collection!:eusa_clap I'm curious about how often you wear them, especially the bowlers. As rare as it is to see someone sporting a fedora, I never see bowlers.

A super collection. Those fedora's are just my style, exactly the way I like them.

Quite the nice collection. Now that I've seen this maybe you and Fedoralover are about par on being the luckiest dogs on the porch.

Cheers!

An amazing collection. And I'm with Fedoralover on the styles - just about perfect.

NICE COLLECTION!!!

 

[feltfan]

Very nice. Love to hear more about what you've got.
More photos of the more unsual ones would be interesting, too.

I assume you're not a large size. Lucky dog.

Mighty Fine Collection.

Excellent collection. Particularly the fedoras.:eusa_clap

Some very very cool hats... Someday I'll have to display some of mine as nicely... keep the bowler handy, We may just get around to doing something pretty cool and 20's style when winter hits, and the bowler is always a nice touch.

All in very good shape are your hats I see... Good show!

A hat everyday

Sefton, I wear a different hat everyday. When not in uniform I wear a fedora to work. I wear a homburg to church and a derby/bowler to weddings and other special events. I have several throwdowns that I wear when out in the field. Sure don't want to mess up my good ones.

Wow, what a great collection!

 

[Dixon Cannon]

Absolutely wonderful...

...You are livin' my dream, good buddy. What size are these? I'm a 7.5. I'll send along my mailing address. You can put me in your will! -dixon cannon

Size 7 3/8

Dixon, the hats are size 7 3/8 (23 inches). As for my will I would leave them to a friend/ FL member that would wear them and care for them before I would leave them to a family member who might not. Sorry they are not your size.

Matt, lets do it!

I think we like to see a few pics in your hats sir. Especially the homburgs & bowlers. Semper Fi!
