Happy Aloha Friday!
Wearing this Hawai'ian shirt and a Panamoe.

That's my "you mess with one Aloha Gangster, you get the whole Luau" face.
Have a great day! :)

Too hot again today for much hat wearing. Not as bad as the heat index of 123 yesterday fortunately. I had a cotton flat cap on earlier for biking and now I'm getting some pictures of this Stetson Mallory while I decide what I might want to do with it.

I like the crease and brim shape as it is. If it were mine I'd put a thin leather band, a horsehair band, or a beaded band with a Native American design where the ribbon would go, and call it done.

Atwood Nevada. I'm still not entirely happy with the shape, and I wish the crown was about 1" taller. Decent hat though. I'll tweak the brim a little more later.
Sunbody Hats has a couple of versions of that hat in straw, and I think I've seen them with the brim binding. You could ask them about it. It has a 4" ventilated crown. I"m a big fan of theirs because they're sturdy straws, particularly good for outside work, etc.

Atwood makes some Really Nice Hats , I think they (he) actually came up with Bangora Straw Hats , but I may be dreaming that up . Its a little low for my bone head , but a little Higher I might could Wear It . I like the Vaquero Style (Vaquero/Buckaroo transliteration) . I've seen all kinds of Hats shaped like that , even with taller Crowns and shorter Brims . But they make em work , and look great .
