one of my Adam Pacesetters from Johnnyphi

"Sterling Silver" color

Do you guys like the teardrop bash it has? I was thinking of rebashing it to a center dent/forward dent? I think I'm a bit too slim to pull off this teardrop.

NY-C, I think it looks great as it but I favor the center dent over most other creases, so if you want to try it...go for it! You can always change it back if you don't like it.

Whippet

My new Whippet came Saturday and it is superb! The seller's description was great and it fits like a charm. I would have posted it sooner but...I was busy with the newest grandson! New Whippet and new(est) grandson all in one!

I think this Whippet and I are going to get along just fine!

Michael, the wearer makes the hat look even better. That is a fine looking hat. Makes me want to go out and cook something, underground of course ;)

Looks as if you were made for each other, Mr. P.! Congrats. When will the grandson be given his first fedora?

Lots more details will be posted in the German/Austrian thread. This is a cool and cuddly lid! :D

New Nostalgia

Stetson Nostalgia in Caribou (grey) came in over the weekend. Sending it off for a binding on the brim. Do ya'll think I should go with a whippet like 9 ligne blue silver or something smaller?

Holding a white phone so I can color balance the flash.

The Overhead, my bash peaked high up on the crown giving me a bit of a taper. Maybe lower next time.

Sue, you are going to need to grow a hydra head or six to give all these hats a chance to be in the sun more than once a year! Don't you hear them grumbling in your closet? :(

I predict a revolution!!!:p

Even the Sultan knew enough to put some eunuchs in the harem to keep the girls happy. lol

Love your Nostalgia. The Caribou color is so versatile. I don't think you'd regret the 9 ligne, but then I go for the flamboyant.

My hats keep each other company. We have a changing of the guard when I come home from work and the more formal goes-with-suits hat of the day gives way to the casual jeans and t-shirts softer fellas. ;)
