I never thought I would ... but I'm loving this style straw.
In a Felt I would never wear this style... but there is something about it in a straw that I feel.

here's my Knox

The hat is in crazy good condition

Why anyone would write their name over a crest is beyond me.. but anyway

Knice Knox!
I only like the porkers in straw as well. No clue why, just do.

My "whipped" Whippet arrived. At least I can say I owned one... :rolleyes:

I'm guessing this is '50s, but I'll let others who know better correct me if necessary.

Looks like it might have been from Harry Coffee's clothing store in Fresno or Bakersfield, CA.

Not my size so I'll probably put it up on the 'Bay at some point for someone who needs a project.

A fly fisherman might take the feathers off your hands for tying flies.

Now I think I am getting the "Sam Snead" reference, which tells you how old I am. That is cool!

A stingy Thoroughbred Premium.

Pedigreed no less. Is this a Beaver Hats brand? Seem to be similarities with the Beaver label.

The only ID and I haven't found anything mentioning it yet, except that there was a Willner Bros clothing store that opened in Des Moines Iowa in 1906.

Nice tall crown on that Derby. Looks to be in excellent shape for being a thrift store find. You sure come up with the gold in your digging!

That is a great Knox straw Moon, love the color.
 
Ok, Ok, here are a few straws I got lately in preparation for the season.....
A sort of pork pie boater by Adam.....a real lite straw fedora style also by Adam....(has tags but crown label is gone).....and a new Stetson Stratoliner in Natural hemp.
Cheers,
M
Ps also pictured is my Woolf Brothers box that came with a Knox 20 from their store....posted some time ago.....but with the recent postings of hats from them, I thought it might be a good time to post a picture of the box again.....

Yes....you have been picking up some real nice straws lately........that Knox of yours is a WOW!!
I have always had a couple of vintage boaters I wear......can't take the summer heat in the felts.....
BUT I am stepping out of my comfort zone with these new lids......differant styles for me....however the Adam porkpie boater will help me out in the transition of style!!
M
PS as all can see I am pretty traditional in my choice of colors.....I am kooking at getting a hemp Strat in sage though.......

Those look great! I especially like the Adam Porkpie Boater, and I normally don't go in for boaters.
