What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[hatsRme]

Running errands this morning before traveling. Wearing a vtg. Stetson Scoop. This is an iconic newspaper name and or course hat of the 30's-40's.

Best, Eric -

Eric the flange radius on this lid really rocks! That is, it's a really righteous and rocking radius, right?! Love it!!

Apologies for the past season selection today but we have an unusual hot October day here and a last chance to wear this paper hat outside before winter storage...

So, SO nice! Alan, you are probably the only person on the planet who would/could apologize for such a truly special lid! YOU are something (special)!!

Beautiful, Bobby! But HOW, when there's a life-threatening hurricane barreling up the east coast, could you wear a WINDham?!!! The brim edge is special...

Very nice.

Very much cooler this morning, still in the 40s. I tried a lot of hats before I decided this Resistol Alpha stingy was the one that felt best today.

Wooly sort of day with a Filson vest and Harris Tweed jacket. And very wooly brain to go with it all.

Not only a great hat but a fantastic oufit. I would love a wool vest like that.
Wear it in good health.

And please be sure to moisturize those little hands, M'dear!!

Ha! I've got asbestos hands.
Really terrible. But that comes with the job.

Tomorrow is primer and tiling day. Gotta get that new workshop ready.

But I'll put on some handcream later.

Interesting color my friend.

Thank you, E!!

Thanks Charlie! I wore it especially for you Sir, simply because its a wind HAM...

This beast I've had for about 20 years. It was the second or third fedora I purchased at Meyer the Hatter, an inexpensive model stamped "Casablanca" on the sweatband. I had Meyer's remove the wide ribbon and install a leather "belt" as the band (back in the days when they did that sort of thing).



It's been through rain and snow, Colorado sun and damp Loozyana cold. It's dusty now, and doesn't fit me as well as my more recent hats do; and I've never been able to shape the brim to my liking. But somehow I can't bring myself to give it away or sell it. I'm talking with Mike of Northwest Hats about doing up a fedora like it.

These days, my car mechanic wears vinyl medical gloves to keep his hands clean and nice. I've never checked his hands, though...

TOUCHE!!! GOOD one, Bob!! And I really do like that lid!

 

[Trenchfriend]

Great, cool hats, gents!

Charlie; It is "happening." The flange and name "Scoop" reminds me of those 40-50's movies with the archetypal news reporter. As you do, it is fun to vary the lid.

I can't work with gloves.
I tried but they bug me.
As a tailor and hatter I sort of always need to feel textures.
Too much fun to crack of the plaster after it dries too
I don't mind getting them dirty.


My manicurist hates me though

Cool 43'F morning here in Minnesota. Wool Filson and a charcoal Gannon fedora are wise choices to complete morning chores in.

Best, Eric -

You always look like a vintage hat advertisement. Looking good once more with a great outfit.

Im sure you kno Mike can reblock it so it fits right and reflange the brim to yer liking. He does have some cool flanges. Is the hat worth it though?
