Beautiful!
Beautiful!
Thanks. It’s a diamond bash. I’ve been really hit and miss with the camera lately and these weren’t very good. Planning to reshoot and post in the fed thread eventually. I’ve been worried about it being too bulbous on the sides. I like the look when I’m holding it, but I’m not sure from the photos.
B.J. and daizawaguy, Good looking hats to start the day.
B.J., I don't see the bulbous sides you're speaking about. I think the hats looks really good.

I bashed my very first Fed IV with a diamond crease and wish I had been better informed, with more experience. I have since purchased three more Feds which have gotten the center-dent crease. They look much better that way. Sad thing is, I can't seem to get my first one to conform to the center-dent since the original diamond crease is rather permanent. And yes, I think anything but the cender-dent looks a bit squatty.
Very nice ... :yo:
I like the Optimo Silverbelly. With these custom-made hats, you get more variety in the mix instead of just a few cookie-cutter standard hats.
Al-- Hats just look so at home with the lake and Chicago skyline in the background . I always enjoy that silverbelly Optimo. Great shots!
After lengthening and deepening the dents, and swooping the brim more, I decided on my Dobbs Americana lord's hat for a walk with my son and my dog this morning.
I'm trying to make sure I can still pull off the lord's hat without any beard or hair.
Today, weather for my Penman. I really love this hat.
Al, great photos, great City, a great smiling Al, with great Optimo. I love your trips and photo sets.
Sun Shining day before Easter I am wearing my new black Sheep hat....
The wife and I went out the other night to a fundraiser cross dressing dinner party. It was a very fun event! I wore the modern stetson whippet. Unsure if I quite enjoy the dimensions of this hat yet, I go back and forth, but it was the hat of choice today.
Some great photos posted yesterday and today. I am racing around trying to prepare for a road trip Monday... came in to the office to form the mountains of stuff on my desk into neat piles so I feel like everything is under control. :eeek:
happy easter, happy pesach!
Today was the 2 1/4” brim brown Fed. It rained all day; I was excited to get the crown and brim shaped up nicely, but of course it didn’t rain when I was outside. Might break down and just soak it myself, but thought the natural approach might lead to a more organic shape.

Out and about earlier this morning with my Garrision Raiders. No need to ask what crease!
The Balmoral bonnet is not something that I wear often, but last evening we were celebrating national tartan day.
That Raiders is one sharp looking lid, David. What kind of crease are you using?
