I don’t recall ever seeing so few postings. We went over 24-hours with only two people sharing hat photos.
I was thinking the same thing. I thought maybe the notifications weren’t working properly (they can be moody), but when I went to check, there were no further postings. Still, the weekend’s here so you’ll get to see my oft-repeated hats!

The ads affecting usability. There are some ads popping up for me on iOS that cover up navigation.
That’s another issue. I can’t get to some of the notifications because ads cover them up. I’m usually on a tablet, so changing the orientation allows me to get them.

For my part, I've just been unmotivated.

So...

Stetson Official Boy Scouts Hat
Olive Drab to Brownish felt
5 3/4 to Montana Peak (about 5 open)
Starburst vent patterns on the sides and back
1 1/8 Antiqued Pewter grosgrain ribbon
2 1/2 brim with double stitched edge

Was curious to take a look at this Stetson Official Boy Scouts hat. I’m guessing based on the sweat and size tag this one is 1960 or 70s. The color is between olive drab and light brown depending on the light. It seemed very to happy remember and quickly reshaped into a Montana peak shape which reaches to about 5 3/4 inches... but also looks nice in a Fedora shape. After some heavy brushing and a little scrubbing with a wet rag the felt cleaned up nicely. Some cool vent holes in the sides and rear along with a double stitched edge 1/2 inch brim. Maybe just add a shoe lace chin strap. A fun little hat that could make a nice hiking photography hat.
