What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[DNO]

Everyone has such great hats! I hesitate to post my own modest one, but here goes...

Just back from my evening walk...nice weather so I figured I'd wear a 'happy' hat. Wore my tan Dunley Supreme (never heard of this brand before). It's a rescue from the Sally Ann. Needed a lot of cleaning and a new ribbon. Unfortunately I only had some modern polyester grosgrain handy. Must replace it with vintage when I find some...there really is no comparison.

Sweet Stetson, Jimmy!

Art did a great job, that's for sure.

Do you have a vintage Wanderer as well?...

That he did indeed David.
I have a vintage Royal Stetson grade hat that has the right ribbon & bound edge but has no stamping as The Wanderer. I got it from Buler.
I have yet to see one stamped like an Open Road, Stratoiliner or Playboy.
I need to get a photo of it to post. Bill may still have one.

For me, a Borsalino hat in bismuth that I bought myself for Christmas (like I need an excuse...)

Oh man! You're killing me Alan!:jaw: Gorgeous!

I'm sorry Ale, I should have stifled the poem. I hope your gray Borso to come is a winner too.

Elementary beautiful, Alan. Got to love those Borsalino metals.

Hopefully it will be here by the end of the week

Thanks Al... I think the felt color naming committee at Borsalino must have been a fun place to work. They really travelled down on the periodic table for this one.

Alan; Your new Holiday gift is very classy. I struggle with describing what features assist in making a hat appear "classy." It is difficult for me to define the very details of the classy properties. In this case the hat's gestalt constitutes classy.

Happy Holiday, early.

Admiring your new Holiday gift, Eric -

Alan, nice new Borsalino. The ink isn't yet dry on Ale's Borsolino model contract and his job is already threatened.

Meanwhile ...

Borsalino Week - Day 3

Great hats, gents.
I went with my blue/gray strat this morning...

 

[bond]

Nice hats guys!

Great Borsos Alan and Dave. What color is your Borso Dave? looks very interesting.
Sweet Strat, Mike!

Milky chocolate Resistol today.

Stetson Avenue (with "Wafer Edge" ). I think this is the richest color of gray I have ever seen on a vintage Stetson...

Great Hats! I get to wear one of four felt hats I have. I need another 361 so I can wear a different hat every day, I'm working on it. Alanfgag is your picture a mirror image, ribbon bow is on the Right.
Maybe a Hat in a transuranium color, but then it would be too heavy.
