I think you’ve got a few in this color scheme now, Steve—with good reason! Very nice!

I do indeed. Thanks for noticing, David.

They are all somewhat different though

Glad you got that one to work for you! I never could. Dang; my best ribbon work too (as far as that goes).

If you did the ribbon work on this one Stefan, I am truly in awe.

Hope you all have a great weekend full of compliments on your favorite hats!

Glad to see you add another ME to the collection., Phil - that’s another fine example! You must have four or five now?

Great looking hat Steve! I just ordered a bespoke hat with similar bow work - I don’t see that offset front bow often enough. .

The count is at four, however one is earmarked for a trade.

And for it, you are getting the Dobbs version (the Guild Edge) - I'm feeling excited for the trade!

Glad you've been able to get a robust collection going in a short time, brother.

Thanks, brother! I'm excited too!

I keep telling myself I'm done and then another one pops up. There's gotta be an end somewhere....

I’m the same. I thought announcing it publicly would help. “My last hat for a while” or “Now I’m completely out of space” or something. But nope, I just keep acquiring more.

At least at this point my interests are almost entirely pre-1950s hats, so that does help.

Or start-up bespoke, like King’s Umbrella!

I know what you mean by announcing it publicly. I've done the same, hoping (while knowing better) that someone will hold me accountable to my public commitment. I need somebody to scold my azz and say WTH are you doing, son?! But instead, I just get a bunch of compliments and congrats.

I’ll give it a try:

“What the heck are you doing son? How many hats does one man need? Oh wait… you obviously don’t have enough. Carry on!”

Sorry, I tried.

That’s how it starts

Ain't that the truth!

I just got through making a slight change to a St. Regis Homburg by dropping the front of the brim just a tad. I love it so much, I now want more homburgs!

You should talk to Stefan

Nathan and Phil @hambone71, you both know you're never getting out, right?

 

[The Lost Cowboy]

Thanks, Nathan.

I just saw that photo of Stefan’s attic on WHAYWT. I’d be afraid to send him after something - we might never see him again!

Nathan and Phil @hambone71, you both know you're never getting out, right?

Yeah, I can’t even walk down to the corner to check my mail without a hat on. It feels weird. Who knows what the future holds, but I reckon I’m a lifer.

Just when you think you're out, they pull you back in!

That's the spirit!

My thought exactly. Michael C would have been better off though in the hat business.
