Well yesterday I bought my first hat! This weekend reminded me how hot that sun could be and I decided to get a Bailey Straw hat for the summer as I spend many days in the park with my daughter and at the ballpark for an afternoon game. The wife picked it out after I tried on several so that is good sign #1. I will try and snap a picture later but here is a picture from their site:

Got measured up and had an overall great experience, will visit Bencraft Hats again for future purchases.

My inseparable Yohali and me. with thread cotton hat.

I think it is very nice that you and your father both wear hats. Did you learn to appreciate a good hat from your father? Also, do any of the women in your family wear hats?

Borsalino Hat, 100% Beaver

I have owned this hat for a couple of months now but have not displayed it on this discussion group (I think). Here it is. Borsalino, 100% Beaver, 2 1/2 inch brim, brown. It fits so very comfortably.

Thanks DRB

Hi, Mr. DRB, greetings¡¡¡¡¡ yes, when I was a little boy,I saw my grandfather and my father wearing hat, furthermore, in T.V. shows and movies many artists were working with hats, I remembered Robert Stack in The Untouchables, always have believed wich I can use hats and better when sometimes I fix mine in own style, my little daughter use it only in winter.
;) ;) ;)
