Hi again Steve, what were the specs on that hat? I'm guessing 6 inch crown and a 4.5 inch brim, but that's a guess.
Thanks
Mike
Thanks

Don't know where else to post this, so here is as good as any place. Been watching the Watchmen series and thought that the mansion where Adrian Veidt (Jeremy Irons) is kept had something familiar. It did because I've been there. It's Penrhyn Castle in Bangor, Wales. Fabulous place (highly recommended). I have some pictures of it to compare.

It was before I started wearing hats (real ones, that is):

And to stay on topic: there were some hats there too!

Thanks, Brent. I'll admit those cargo pants are handy; lots of pockets to stuff things into.You actually looked comfortable and dressed for the occasion. I can only dream of achieving your sartorial excellence...more likely it’s my wife that’s doing the dreaming.

I wear cargo/tactical/bdu type pants all the time. lol, even with a suit coatThanks, Brent. I'll admit those cargo pants are handy; lots of pockets to stuff things into.
I have two or three pairs of cargo/tactical/bdu pants somewhere around here that I've worn when I knew I'd be doing something that would likely get me dirty--yardwork, straightening out our junk in the garage, helping someone move something, you name it. They aren't fashionable under most circumstances, but they're probably the most comfortable pants I've ever worn.I wear cargo/tactical/bdu type pants all the time. lol, even with a suit coat

Hi! I am a big Lonesome Dove fan, and I am terrible with initials and acronyms. Who or what was TLJ?I am not much into movie hats. But have to admit Tom Selleck has sported a few good ones in his westerns.
I typically build my own hats. Copied a few movie hats for friends when asked but other than TLJ in Lonesome Dove not hats I would mimic and wear myself. Or at least that is what I thought
I like a pretty plain hat so there isn't a lot of options, just some nice detailing to be done that sets the hat apart. I built this one a couple of years ago and haven't worn it more than a day or two since but I like it a lot. When I started this felt besides a big brim and open crown I really didn't have any expectation as to final form.
Went looking for something "new" to wear the other day and pulled this one down. Never did wear it for long. Instead I put the steamer and brush to the same white hat I had been wearing. Good enough.
Then a week later I was looking through some video and up popped this one of Monte Walsh.
Guess my pea brain was impressed enough with one o Monte's hat to copy it. I have a 50 Express, '86 carbine as well. But that was intentional!
Either way always fun to have a "new" hat no matter how long you have owned it
Ah! Tommy Lee Jones. I know him as Woodrow Call. [emoji1]
