Post New Hats Here!

Some great colours in that Dobbs, Joe. It's a nice looking piece of tweed, too.

Thanks Steve. Makes for a nice change of pace.

Here is one of my new hats I just purchased. It is the Ken from JJ Hat center.

I'm always pleased when a box of hats arrives from Oslo. However, I was particularly happy with this batch. I'll show them off over the next few days.

First up, my first Campdraft in Blue Grass Green. I really like the shape and flow of the curves on this one.

Thanks Panos @PanosChris for another great deal.

Awesome Steve. I think, now, everyone has one but me. Looks great.

Very nice thin ribbon look, Steve.

Le Chevron ‘Genuine Velour’

This was the other travel mate of my blue Strat. I seem to be accumulating a number of these fuzzies through no intention of my own other than most of them have arrived with other hats I have purchased. This one seems very close in color to the Loden one I got a few weeks back. The gold and blue/black woven hat band on this hat is fairly unique. Under the hood... the manufacturing tag appears this is likely a 1960s HCA creation... my guess would be Dobbs or Knox

It's a beauty Steve! I have the same one that I wear frequently.

 

[Steve1857]

Thanks Dave. I have to admit, seeing your Campdrafts among others really got me looking at them. Akubra sure make a top notch hat.

Second hat of the Oslo batch. This one had a sneak preview in the Western thread, but I neglected to say what it was.
An Acubra Woomera in sage green.

I'm planning on giving it a Tom Mix type bash, but right now, I'm enjoying looking at it as is.

I work outside quite a bit. I have a 7 or 8 Akubras and I am never afraid to wear them doing physical labor or running heavy equipment, places I would be very much afraid to wear most of my vintage hats. I find that they are practically indestructible and great quality for a relatively low price.

Lovely....I would have bought it regardless of size just for the liner.

Steve, the Woomera is a great blank canvas for a western. That’s a color I’ve not seen, either. @Hurricane Jack has a couple you may have seen, both with nice creases and brim shapes. If not, look them up to see what can be done.

Good idea Steve.

 

[Steve1857]

Thanks Greg, I will.

Thanks Jack. I was thinking the sloping down from back to front bash.

Good idea Steve.

 

[Rmccamey]

Here is some inspiration Steve. My take on the Carlsbad crease on my big Stetson Beaver 100. Mine is not as deep or raked as most of the Gus creases I see. (Sorry, not the best pictures.)

Magnificent hat, Randy. A rare piece from the teachers of Guiseppe Borsalino.
