What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Steve1857]

Been at home sick with the Flu, so no hat pics for me, but I’m enjoying seeing everyone else's wonderful hats the last few days.

Get well soon, Tim!

Very nice conversion. I'm always amazed at those Homburg conversions, they seem hard to do.

The only real hard part is resewing the binding back on, as you have to take it off to do the conversion correctly. Straightening out the brim with a steam iron, while not ruining the flange isn’t hard, but you could easily mess it up if done without care and a little bit of know how. Then, if the brim has an elliptical cut you must scissor off the brim to equidistant measurements all the way round.

Nobody wears Westerns like you do Bob. Excellent!

That sure is a lot of X’s. Very nice Bob!

Ps, Bob; I'm only counting 99 X's

I knew you were a closet oil tycoon Bob, I knew it.

Thanks fellas! Weaning myself off all those Xs with this Rocky Mountain Hat Company western.

Two very sweet hats, Shadow.
Unfortunately, most the time, you half headed guys must spend the whole head of cabbage for nice vintage lids like those. My 1/4 sized hat’s off to you and others here on the Lounge.
Nice suit, too. Mine arrived today
and it fits perfectly! Guess I got lucky! First time buying a barely used eBay suit that was originally made for someone else. They provided correct measurements. Looks great!
I’ll post pics when I get back home.

Thanks Tim. It is a weird color, between brown and a dark eggplant. Outside looks completely different.

Nice Knox Hector. What color is the ribbon ? It looks burgundy on my screen. I have some Burgundy on order that I want to use on something.

Hello everybody! Today's hat is a modern Stetson Whippet Royal De luxe in Cognac. The last pic shows the true color in the sun.

I've purchased a number of hats from intrepid thrifter Spencer Stewart over the years. I think this old Bulgarian sold nutria fur Barbisio is my favorite. It remains one of my favorite hats to wear.

 

[Héctor Fernández]

Excellent duo!

I hope you are feeling better. The flu really stinks.

Perhaps the nicest proportions I’ve seen on a hat of that style, Alan. Handsome hat. You wear it well and for those who ask, “can a hat of this style be worn casually?” See man in puffer vest above.

Wow. With the quality/quantity pool of antique vintage hats you could probably backstroke in, like Scrooge McDuck through his vault of gold coins, your opinion of that particular hat is...saying a lot!
(In no other way is this a comparison to you and McScrooge)
