What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

Chicago!? The question is Sir, when in Chicago, did you take a look at Optimo...!?

I bet you did, and took at look at least through the window!?

I'm sorry to say I didn't get a chance to stop by Optimo ; we just breezed through Chicago on our way from point A to point B and as I had the family with me, I didn't want to impose hours of hat shopping on them!
Hats Plus was a nice store, the gentleman who helped me was patient and courteous. I finally got to try on some hats!

Tht ribbon treatment is very unique. Sort of reminiscent of the Gay Prince but better and more finished. :eusa_clap
We need some close ups of the ribbon and bound edge to get the detail.

I have a couple but perhaps Feraud has better shots.

Interesting. I searched for an ad and the only thing I could find was for a Women's hat(1943)http://news.google.com/newspapers?i...BAJ&pg=3700,364458&dq=stetson+spectator&hl=en

looks terrrific Mr. P!! And the hats too!

Greetings from Metherell, Cornwall, U.K.! Today I wore my Stetson panama on a great hike on Dartmoor. There was a damp gale blowing but I had little trouble with keeping my hat, having tugged it down securely. The scenery is superb here!

Yesterday we drove to Branscombe and Beer, both fishing villages on the coast and had a great lunch of mussels, then fish & chips with mushy peas, on the beach. My FEDIV accompanied me on that trip.

A Dobbs Shantung Panama

Today was a good day for a Panama. Had this one kicking around for a few years now, but rarely wear it out in public due to its psychedelic seizure inducing ribbon; one of these days I’ll replace it with a solid black one.

Good brim.

Good brim.

Thanks. I always liked the shape. Wish I could get some of my other hats to do the same.
