Post New Hats Here!

Yesterday I received this Pilgrim from another lounger. I love it.

Thanks Josh!

 

[DJH]

Way cool, Mike. I was wishing that one was my size when Josh was selling.
Enjoy!!

Beautifull Hat Mike, It looks good on you.

First off - This thread should NEVER get to the second page, folks!

Second - Pre-1934 Mallory panama "optimo" in time for winter :eeek: That's right! :whip:

Great find, Garrett!! I love the straight block of that optimo crown. Very Nice weave too. :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

Here is my light rust-colored Borsalino fedora: ‘kitten finish’ beaver felt, with an overwelt brim edge. As close to orange as a serious fedora can get.
What, you may ask, can be worn with an orange fedora? Why, teal blue of course – preferably in gabardine or flannel. With orangey brown shoes, if you please.

I love the ensemble!

Lots of solid lids around here lately. Extra compliments to Marc for that color combination, and Rodkins, for that amazing ribbon on your new hat!

My new hat should be the last one for a while. It's become my daily go-to fedora. Let me introduce you to the [modern] Stefeno Teardrop in Caribou.

All the cool cats have one.

Boy, this hat is cozy. Soft leather sweatband with comfortably lined fur felt... no wonder I have three Stefenos. (Please pardon the flash in this one.)

I got it to go with this sport coat. The jacket is a rather ambiguous gray-brown-green-something, and I think the chocolate-charcoal Caribou color suits it. Does it seem about right to your eyes?

I love the ensemble!

Thanks! Admittedly, it's ain't the cup of tea of the other 99%.

Looks great with that sportcoat, too! Too bad the hat doesn't come in "Extra HUGE" (my size is 8!) otherwise I'd get one. They're on sale, too, at hats-plus.com

 

[Cicero]

Nice hat Steven.
Looks good on you. :eusa_clap

Can I join the 1% club as a student member? I've tried outfits of similar colors, but substituting thrift store suits (none in blue yet... working on that!) and a modern Stefeno in Whiskey (pretty orange to my eyes). That's a sharp set of colors, thanks for sharing them.

And thanks Bob and Cicero for the kind words. It was in fact Hats-plus.com where I ordered it from. Sadly, Bob, you're right about the sizes. I'm usually a 7 3/8, and with just a little bit of padding added behind the sweatband, the "X-Large 7 1/2-7 5/8" is a comfortable, if a little loose, fit.

Perhaps more than 1% as Optimo sells a quite similar color and I've seen it on people's heads there.

I have had that Oxford bookmarked for a long time... One of these days [maybe] I will save up and splurge. Since I'm typically a very casual dresser unless in "uniform" (black tux) I often wonder if that color would be something I could pull off.

In the abstract that's one of my absolute favorite hats.

I love it, Marc. My Parkleigh is not too far off of that color.

I guess it's more the ribbon than the felt on mine.

This one was waiting on the porch for me when I got home yesterday. It is my first good hat.

 

[randooch]

Very sharp lid, Mike; suitably autumnal.

Racuda, congrats on that one. Nice self-portrait!

Happy "Thank-God-For-Tofu Day" to you all!

Looks nice ! Is it an Akubra and if so, what style?

Thanks. It is an Akubra, a Banjo Paterson in fawn. Do you think it fits my face shape?

 

[Duper]

Looks great to me. Hopefully I'm right as we have a similar face shape and I own the same Banjo.

No problem there. It looks GOOD on ya!! Welcome to the world of Akubra! As they say down under, "...it looks dinkum Aussie"
