What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Torpedo]

Today it was my Biltmore Porkpie Milan, in Pumice Gray colour (modern, non vintage). You can see a more detailed image in the "Show your porkpies" thread.

BTW, this is my first photo here with me under a lid...

My partenaire is my daughter Laura - she is enthusiastic about this hat, it is her favourite, and the one she selects for me if given the choice. She calls it, not inappropriately, "the blue hat".

Regards,

Daniel

I have read somewhere that a hat should mach your facial features. Is my little fedora look ok on my mug ?or should I try a different style?wider brim?

"Does my fedora make my a** look big?"

Seriously, though, I think the brim is probably not the issue but rather the crown. I would recommend wearing a less tapered, more full, boxy crown shape. I think that would suit you great.

It's hard to tell from the little avatar photo, but that looks fine. I like that, because of the rig behind you, this popped into my head:

We have a cool, misty morning here in Orange County; an opportunity to wear my Akubra Lawson.

There ya go, Jeff. Looks good on you. Welcome to the lounge...you're going to love it here. You'll feel right at home in no time.

Dobbs.....

I'm calling it my Dobbs "Lounger" because I have the Lounge Pin on it, and it's a totally different crease, also a ribbon designed by myself as well.

Yes, I know I wear this hat alot.

I just think Gus Miller hats suit me more than the rest of what I have.

4 1/4 Teardrop crown

2 1/2 brim

2 inch band.

I wore my Johnnyphi Adam Royal to a local watering hole this evening to meet some friends.

Needless to say, mine was the only fedora amongst all the baseball caps. I did hear "Nice hat" a couple of times, and one guy wanted to buy my hat for $20. When I told how much it would take, he lost interest, but he came back later and asked to buy it again. lol lol

Hi,

Not "today", actually last weekend, but I had the photos unloaded today.

I premièred this Borsalino linen newsboy cap in the family trip to Disneyworld Paris.

Here I am posing with the Nautilus in the foreground, at the Discovery Land area.

And here with family in a vintage car parked in Main Street area. Note I have switched the cap to "speed" mode

By the way, it rained about half the time, and the cap provided good cover. As an anecdote: out of necessity, we had to buy the standard Disneyland yellow rain cape, but I was able to discard the hood and so be reconigzable by my distinctive headgear, among hundreds of other people wearing the same cape... sort of a beacon for the family!

On the negative side, the cap seems to have shrunk because of the rain- I would swear it feels more snug now.

Regards,

Daniel

Love that Peters Brothers, especially the color and the tall crown. And I want to visit where you're at in the picture too! Looks peaceful.
