Thanks TommyK

Harv, the silverbelly Akubra is nice, but that open road is the cake taker!

Cool and classy, New Jack!

Sublime homburg A-n-A.

Hour's is no slacker either, Moehawk. Nice work.

Good looking straw Javadave.

Very classy, Alan. The hat and the view have me craving something with rum in it.

Me encanta cervezas y mariachi!! Nice hat for the job, Chamuco!

That IS minty cool, Rick Blaine. Sweet!

Ouch!! that Whippet is sharp as a razor, Moontheloon. That is one classic piece!

Fantastic cap and specs, SBG!! A good look.

WCBrown that hybrid is a great shape and knockout color.

Digging the 47, Bob R. May look into one as my next purchase. One cannot have too many summer lids, y'know.

Nice one, El-Ote. The crease looks pretty good to me.


Love the weave of that panama, DJH

I'm still breaking in the new Dobbs milan today.

Cheers for the many posts! I reviewed the past few days posts and enjoyed all of them. Unique cowboy hats/panamas/milans/toppers/hats/caps and mostly the pics showing the everyday nature of this "head" clothing item. Well done to all!

Enjoying the weekend. Yesterday evening I was hanging out in my vtg. Stetson Stetsonian. Yard, beach and house chores were completed in my fedora. The green felt is very soft and malleable. It wears easily and comfortably. For those who have doubts wearing a "big brim," wear them confidently. I brought out the box to share a pic, as I thought it was interesting how the box and hat were color matched (mostly).

This morning in the summer heat I was wearing my vtg. Stetson Panama that has that distinctive crease. I wondered about this crease. Now that I have one to wear, I enjoy it immensely. It is cool and breezy (helped my the unique interior mesh) and fits/wears light on the head. The shape and brim discourage wind gusts from taking the hat or altering its wearing position on my bald pate. I am sharing inside shots as rain sprinkles have started.

you know why I admire the heck out of you Eric ?

... because you willfully wear hats that would probably never leave the box if in my possession :)

I would be afraid to leave the house in a Stetsonian ... let alone do yard work in it

bravo to you my friend ... two absolutely gorgeous hats being treated as they were meant to be treated


.... and I have a couple of those boxes... they are wonderful

Bob, Eric, Trev, nice display of lids, guys. I especially like the Stetsonian.

It's hot and muggy here in Central Ohio this afternoon. I like Spring and Fall, but I hate hot and muggy Summers.

Just reflanged the brim to a fedora snap brim on this Knox 15 Westlite OR clone. When I first got the hat it was missing the original thin ribbon. I sewed on this contrasting dark brown thin ribbon with an OR style bow...
