What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[casechopper]

Sam - a great pair of hats. What's the brim width on the Cane?

Thanks Richard,
It's a 2 3/4" brim.

Sharp RDS, Dave!

J Lee renovation today.

 

[casechopper]

Nice Lee and tie Perry.

Lovely ribbon and raw edge on that Stetson DJH.

Joao: I'm going to get one of those Sombreros some day. I like the raw curled edge and crown height quite a bit.

A'n'A: Nice look with the boater.


Today: Akubra Fed IV

 

[Joao Encarnado]

Good look and background Joao

Thanks.

Joao--nice furry hat band on that one, love the color of the Sombrero, too. An Epiphone and a hat, what could be better? I had an Epiphone back in my teenage garage band days.

I can think on something... Thanks

Nice browns, Joao, Javier, and g.d.

Thanks.

It was a lovely day for a lovely boater! Cavanagh...

I don't go much for boaters but that looks really nice.

Joao - nice hat and great background.

Thanks.

It is a nice hat. Yesterday my sister saw it and first thing she said was it was a big hat. Took some pictures wearing it.

This one was the second choice for yesterday but I stick with the Sombrero so for today here it is, this brown 4x beaver Stetson, my only bound edge hat. My sister saw it and said it was really nice so I think it's a win for this hat.

Joao great ribbon work! Man can you pull off the super wides.

ManofKent:The National Rochester looks to be a house brand for what was National clothing company in Rochester NY (most likely made be Lee.

Today an Adam Executive, vacations over back to work.

Nice to see some great hats in sunlight! :eusa_clap

My new #1 on a fine Dyngus Day morning.

 

[ManofKent]

David - very sharp looking. I like that ribbon.

Sam - thanks. I'm trying to decide what width to go for on the Sand I've ordered!

Perry - great looking Lee

Sam - Always good to see a Fed, and I like that crease and brim work.

Joao - a lot of banded ribbons aren't my cup of tea, but that one is great.

Javier - There are some bargains among the house brands! Lovely Adam too.

Alan - very nice. That's a western I could almost see myself wearing, which is a rare thing! I like the larger ones on others, but not myself.

 

[TheDane]

Joao, that one sure is some-brero, too!

 

[Alive'n'Amplified]

Looking every bit the Southern gentleman, AnA.

I do declare.

Nice pic Richard.
Are Christy's felt hats any good?

Nice pic Richard.

Thanks John. The bowlers are decent. The wool felts are as good as most and better than many. The fur-felts have a nice handle and finish, okay sweats and finishing, but are prone to shrinkage (and therefore taper) on their first encounter with rain (you won't get further shrinkage, but it's not ideal).

I don't like shrinkage.

I don't like shrinkage.

It stopped me buying any more of the modern ones. 70's and earlier were fine - don't let the current imported felts put you off buying the older ones where they produced their own felt.

Nice hats all around today guys.

A couple of pics of me and my son goofing off outside today.
I'm wearing a Resistol Rancher straw and my son is wearing his Luigi Baroni Linen cap.

Enjoyed today's hats, guys.

Late to the party with a Mallory Ten.

I don't like shrinkage.

Wasn't that a George Costanza line?

Today, sadly, I help to look for another car for Mrs. HatsRme. HELP!!!
