What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

I think it's a great looking hat, Terry, I would keep it.

Thanks buddy. You're probably right about keeping it. It's the only one I have that's not either Black or Silverbelly....but, if a good trade comes along I might consider it

Ha! You're the King of Black Hats my friend! Nobody wears a Black Western as well as you do!

Thank you. Send them all Black Westerns to me as I am the King

Another killer western/leather look Joao.

Thanks but that jacket is not leather, it's a heavy cotton fabric. It's a Schott model 918. You are not the first one to think it was leather

That hat looks good on you. You pull off those wide brims better than you think. You should give some thought to a Western with a brim of around 3 1/4 - 3 1/2 inches wide.

+1

TJones - 4" is definitely too much on me, but I might try 3 1/4"

Go for 3 1/2"

I'm still undecided about this hat. I don't know if I really like it that well. It's a nice quality hat though, and it feels substantial. My 4X Resistiol Stagecoach conversion by John Galt...I'm deciding whether or not to sell it, trade it, or keep it....

I would say also to keep it but it's your decision.

Yesterday the Dobbs West.

Today that black "flying saucer" made by Stetson

Fine hats and caps all! Great looking Gentlemen here in this lounge!

 

[hatophile]

Superb hats Alan and Joao!

 

[ManofKent]

Andy - great looking cap

John - that looks good. How pale is bone? A typical panama shade or whiter?

Perry - that Tilden is superb.

TJones - keep it. If my attempt at a Stagecoach conversion comes out anywhere near as good as that one I'll be delighted.

Superb hats Alan and Joao!

Thanks very much!

Fantastic fedoras; Ca-razy, captivating caps, with all properly and proudly perched in place! Wearing my VS dove w/basic black ribbon, (2-1/2" bound brim) my role has (for now) transitioned to Chauffeur, Footman, Butler, etc. Here are Mom and I in another Doc's waiting room. My hair is getting longer than hers. No time for the barber lately...

For TJones - the side and back of my 1920s vintage cap...

Really nice, Andy!

View attachment 11786 going with Borso stingy today, everyone looking great today

 

[hatophile]

Nice Charlie and GG!

 

[ManofKent]

Charlie - I hope your mum is doing okay. With that family resemblance I think you ought to talk her into trying a fedora - women look great in fedoras. Great VS.

Gear-guy - nice stingie.

Stingy for me today too. SAKS with a Cavanagh edge - probably the pre-hatco 70's from what Brad noted.

 

[hatsRme]

Thanks guys! Richard she actually bought one herself (a stingy) last year. I should see about a family photo.

Richard, The Winchester bone felt bodies are like a light panama, super light khaki color. Definitely not off white.
Bowlerman has a great looking one from Falcon park that has a vintage burgundy ribbon on it.
I don't know why it's not popular around here. It was my first custom hat. I wanted a hat made with a big contrast in felt and ribbon color that screams custom.

 

[hatophile]

Very sharp Richard.
Steve, you otter wear that hat more often!
