What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[steur]

Tried my hand today at reshaping a brim on a western for the first time.

This Beaver Brand was the last hat I bought before I went vintage nuts back in late 2012 or so.

A few weeks ago, one of my best friends said that he wanted me to help him find a western or a slouch hat to buy. Instead, tonight the Beaver Brand went to him after I shaped it like he described.

Doug gives it the first wear as we let our freak flags fly this evening.

I also attach a photo of it from 2012. It's the sole shot I can find of it from before today's reshaping.

Fine job, Matt and it suits him well.

Last sunny day for a while. Back to Oregon rain and felts for a week or so. Cappas panama for the day's errands. This was the first hat I bought from NW Hats at the beginning of my addiction. I forgot about the new pug I put on last summer. Like a new hat!

Cool looking hat! Love that ribbon!

Greetings All:
Today it’s a Knox Twenty Custom Edge thin ribbon. I’ll have to do a comparison sometime because i didn’t realize i had posted a thick ribbon one already . Duh..kinda like finding a hat. Anyway, this one is much more flexible all around. Almost floppy. Guess this one is the casual one vs the formal one. Works for me.
Thank you all for kind words of late.

Great crease. This felt looks amazing.

TGIF. Off to keep the world safe for democracy under the Gannon Mr. Natural.

GILLS!! [emoji16]

And to go with the hat - and hopefully get a few toes tappin' and tushies shakin' on a Friday - a little Steve Marriot and Humble Pie.

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

I think you're the first person I've known of who smiled at the thought of Walmart and frowned at the thought of playing with the kids.

Taking the kids out was right after my workout. I was a little shattered.

That is an impressive hat by any standard, Matt. Imperial indeed.

I like that crease Matt! Nice work...

Thanks. I see you as one who lives hatitude.

Thanks gentlemen.

Listening this morning to the national and international news (via my ear buds) on my dog walk. I am trying to make sense of the challenges that exist. A vtg.Stetson Whippet is perfect for the early morning. Love the brim details on this hat.

Outside working on my spring clean-up list. Cleaning out bird feeders while wearing a vtg. Stetson Open Road Twenty-Five.

Best, Eric -

Beautiful, Mike! A new, or just a different pug can totally change up the mood of a hat. Looks like a happy one you have there!!

Thanks for the inspiration. I have three vintage pugs I bought from Art Fawcett some years ago, and in an unusual turn of events I haven't seen them in about three seasons. Hoping they weren't mistaken for dusting rags, or something else that may have been tossed by the uninformed...

Stetson 15X Shantung on a warm Central California afternoon.

Here’s to a cooler than normal summer.

Hear, HEAR!!

Great Shantung, too, Brent!

Wrapping up the week with a Campdraft sporting a diamond crease (as do all my other CDs).

BOTH are like NEW, Eric. Outstanding!!!

So, here's the thing: It's been raining like crazy, and I'm still very nervous about wearing a quality hat out in weather like this. So, I took a step backward and donned a hat (cap) that I don't worry about surviving the weather.

Tell me, how do you take an Akubra Campdraft and wear it out in the weather? I keep reading how they stand up and I know that's partly what a hat is designed for, but I still worry about the effects of the weather...

Love the brim details on this hat.

Two great ones this morning, Eric. That brim treatment is very much like the one on my Stetsonian.
