Cheating a little here, these are from yesterday afternoon/early evening

Our doggie walk by the Nashua canal - Akubra Tablelands. You can see we got caught in a little shower along the way.

The S25s are pretty variable in felt quality - the older the better (like a lot of hats) in general. Newer 25s tend to be pretty stiff. Find a good one and they are great hats.

I've bought and sold several of them and kept three that I like.

The mid ribbon (the ribbon is probably not original to the hat, but very well done and exactly matches the brim binding)

A late 40's Open Road style (previously owned by Rabbit)

Mid-60's western S25

It would be nice if some other colour choices came around. The only non-silverbelly S25 I had was a pale blue OR style - Perry (Hatophile) is the current owner.

Jeepers, very snazzy hats/caps and some brilliant NEW VS fedoras. Cheers!


Back home to Minnesota yesterday evening. I awoke to a list including yard chores and a hardware store run. My vtg. Dobbs cap and my vtg. Lee All-American (buckskin) were hat toppings for the morning.

Went for a late lunch and wore my vtg. Adams fedora (silver belly).

Went out for a late afternoon hike. Wore my VS silverbelly fedora. This hat was inspired by the Adams above.

Because I trimmed my beard and hair, I trimmed a brim.
No, I couldn't trim my brims.
So this Resistol BR "20" with 3" brim. Nice felt but too small brim :(
