What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[TheDane]

Thank you David. To be quite honest, I always turn off the sound during the National Anthem

It may be offensive to some, but most often I find it a musically pain to listen to the singer's extreme interpretations and phrasings - all to often some more or less random pop- or R&B-queen. A bad habit, that is spreading to more and more of our own national sport events. I prefer to let the "queen" moan and groan in some well sealed sound studio, and then let the people sing their beloved National Anthem, as it was supposed to be sung. That's what makes sense to me, anyway [huh]

I know, Renee Fleming is a fabulous singer, but the fear, that she would follow the tradition, made me choke her too ... in respect for your country and your National Anthem.

Justin - great cap and coat

Ole - I've not come across Parino - that looks great.

I don't know what you lot were doing watching the Superbowl, you could have been cheering West Brom on as we held Liverpool to a draw in out desperate battle to avoid relegation. Proper sport

We are expected to receive another 6 ins of snow in my area tomorrow, oh how I long for spring and straw fedoras...
Guess I will just have to wait another 6 weeks... BOO.

The straw is a Dobbs with 2 1/2 in brim... interesting wide ribbon... Cant wait to put her on...

Best regards.

Nice black hats, Richard, Alan, AnA. Great stuff as always, John.

For me, Stetson 25 today

 

[1mach1]

Nice choice with the Stetson 25, David!

 

[TheDane]

Thanks Richard, it is a really nice hat! It's also my only hat with a 2" brim, but I have given it quite a lot of head-time, since I got it. I have 5-6 recently accuired hats, I plan to shoot the next couple of days. Pics to come soon. Congratulations, I'm happy to hear, you made it! Yes, "real" football is a great sport to most of us European

Another of your beautiful light TARs, David. They are always a joy to watch. Keep them coming, please!

Yeah, and without even so much as a nipplegate "wardrobe malfunction" to help ease the pain this year....:censored:

Looks like everyone's off to a fine hat-wearing day. Nice headwear, men.

For the comments on the beret: Thanks T Jones, Splintercellsz, ManofKent & Hatguy1 (I suspect more people can pull of the beret look than think they can).

For comments on the cap: Thanks ManofKent, 1mach1 & splintercellsz.

Perry, Beautiful Caxton.

Love the CD, Sam! Although it looks to be a better day for a Snowy River, eh?! GREAT shot!

 

[splintercellsz]

David, very nice dimensions on that 25. killer

Andy, great hat and bolo! SHARP

Perry, I like the swoopy brim. Very smooth looking hat

Sam, great hat for not so great weather. Lookin good, bud!

 

[Joao Encarnado]

Akubra sombrero.

 

[splintercellsz]

Joao, very cool!

 

[Joshbru3]

Well its pretty rare that I EVER wear black hats, but I really like this one so I decided to wear it. Originally it was an up-brim, but I decided to go with Rusty's advice and snap the brim. I actually do like it better with the brim snapped.

Its my Early 1900's Etchison Hat Co Rebuild/Conversion...

Great looking hat, Josh! I hope to own an old Western that would actually fit my noggin. Wonderful conversion!

Akubra sombrero.

I'll meet your Sombrero, and raise you one crown, Joao! My Sombrero, bought NEW in an "off-price" or close-out store, the now sadly defunct "Building #19" some years ago, for $19.99. The good ol' days...


In today's weather...


Of the weekend wonders, my vote vote goes to Ole for finally showing up again! Good to see your excited smile, my friend.
