What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Saturday before the storm. A Cold but beautiful day. This is a 2019 whimsical purchase. Please don't ask me why. A little loud, a little gaudy, moderately over the top. Some may call it funky. It came as an open crown. I bashed it, steamed it, and stuck it in the box, and forgot about it until last week while I was rummaging through the stacks, and it resurfaced. Certainly not an everyday hat. It still had the tag on it, LOL!

After today back in the box till who knows when. Have a great weekend.
Leave that one in a more accessible spot, Reg. Honestly, I smiled when I saw it! Whimsical, yes, but in a confident, powerful style. Possibly my new favorite contemporary Borsa!!

Champ Feather Weight - Kasmir Finish
Toast - Medium Tan Felt
4 3/4 crown to peak as shaped
3/4 Champagne Grosgrain Ribbon
2 3/4 brim with 1/8 grosgrain binding
92 grams

Hat number 8 of the Mystery Box 9 a Champ FeatherWeight Kasmir Finish in a semi western style. I was happy to find this one as it is my first Champ other than a small 60s Stingy that was even a bit small for me. This unlined lightweight hat checks in at a fit trim 92 grams... fairly light considering it’s 2 3/4 brim. The black and gold Champ Featherweight scale logo on the sweat is fantastic. The felt color is “Toast” a medium tan. Hardly a blemish on this nearly pristine hat.
