What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

View attachment 111608 View attachment 111607 Today I got sick of waiting for the weather to get nice enough to suit my newest purchase. In defiance of the cold and wet I put on a T-shirt and a Stetson Shore Club. All ready for summer... sorta.

Nice hat. I love how straight sided it is; it looks like Stetson used a framing square to set the taper.

In the conversion corral and in this thread.


This was a conversion hat by @bond. When I bought it I had it shipped directly to him to change the ribbon. Here are the additional pictures requested.

New and improved I'd say!

For work tonight I’m giving my new to me vintage Borsalino a text drive. I’m crazy about this color. More pictures are posted in the Borsalino Brotherhood thread.

Looks like I get the privilege of kicking off TAR Thursday...

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

You kicked it out of the park!

MacLachlan for Thursday.

Have a swell day.

Lovely, Matt. Felt seems to have a little bit of structure to it.

Chores this morning in a vintage Stetson Whippet. This hat has the larger 2 7/8 brim. I big rake and the swwop of the snapped brim give the hat some big dimensions. I like that the hat has attitude. Underbrim shot gives true felt hue.

Best, Eric -

Excellent looking hat, Eric.

Maybe after today this pre 20’s longhair from C D Klump of Philadelphia can have a long rest.

Not too long I hope: such a cool looking hat!

Today I opened the French box of black hats
Some of them are elegant evening hats, not very suitable for the modern world

Flechet Qualitè Supèrieure

Impermeable Fabrication Spèciale

Qualité: Sans Souci, feutre noir

The felt is very soft with a shiny short-haired finish.

The shape is that of a "diplomatique" with reduced proportions and the thin edging of the brim. Fantastic the bow

Thanks for the likes! Have a good day

Great find, Daniele. Fléchet did these special finishes really well.

Pancake flat today....

Whoa! That's some brim on that hat!

Staying with the European tour this week, back to Italy. Rain and bluster in Oregon, needed something that would not catch the wind. Borsalino, early 60s style with a slim brim in Mirtillo. This hat is what all the cool guys were wearing in 1962. Liner has some brylcreem damage, but that just sets the mood.

Good look for you, Mike. Mirtillo was a staple colour for Borsalino.

1960's Open Road for Friday!

I’m diggin’ the brim up look: very Bob Roberts-esque.

Today it’s “Fuzzy Friday” for me. Not much for fuzzy hats and feathers but this one works. Stetson 3x, lots a crown, 2”gills, 2 7/8” brim, nicely done underwelt and a feather. I kinda like this fuzzy fella. The feather stays.
As always, thanks folks for the kind words of late. Hard to keep up.
Be well. Bowen
Ps: thought it was Friday! Oh well. B

Fabulous hat, Bowen. I like these shots where there seems to be a flock of hats following you around!

I'm into this new to me Stetson St. Regis Homburg. A little brushing and steam and then to the bank and a few errands. Getting older, with some arthritis so giving up some of my hunting revolvers. Sad in a way, to be letting go of some things but the hats are always there, right? Anyway, as they say, getting old isn't for sissies.

This lid is super comfortable and I'm impressed by the quality of the felt.

And they make you look cool like nothing else!

Whoa! That's some brim on that hat!

I'll take that as a compliment 5"..to be sure. I like your Zorro avatar! I am wearing a new 5" brimmed black "Zorro" myself this morning. I am almost single handily trying to make those looking to traditional Califoirnio attire to realize it was a short flat crown that is traditional and not the current Nevada ashtray/telescope

Thank you Stefan.
