What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Resistol version of the Musketeer. Very nice!

Edited: So the hat that Stetson copied for their Musketeer.

Resistol version of the Musketeer. Very nice!

The Sky Fleet predates the Muskateer by almost a year. It was introduced in March 1949, the Musketeer did not arrive until January 1950

Twofer time!
Another gorgeous day here and have two to share. One for keeps and one to move.
The Wormser OR clone I’ve had for a year and have finally taken the time to shape. Was a wrinkled mess, but steamed out nicely. Will be my only gray OR styled hat.
I like Wormsers as much as Adams.

The Dobbs Cross Country is in a sage green color that I have too many of so it’s gonna be sold BIN. Should keep it since I have no other Cross Countries and a collectible piece, but as said many times, I’m not really a collector as much as a vintage hat wearer.

Borsalino Homburg "Gigiasgu" in colour "Nizza" (more in the other threats)

Lookin mighty dapper there, Matt.
Doesn’t get cold enough for warm, but cool coats down here, so I’m a bit jealous of the ensemblege y’all get to sport around in.
I’m a lot jealous of the homburg.

I busted out my Stetson Weekender for work today, it's been a while since I wore it. I like the pheasant band for some reason.

Nice. The band looks great.
I’m guessing that’s Mt Hood.

With a new ribbon and some steam that could actually look a lot like your Playboy.

Thanks, yes that is Mt Hood, it loses a little perspective in a picture like this though.

I never thought of it like that, I like the outdoor vibe though.

Thank you very much for the great compliment, which has even more weight from your fer.

Regarding the coat - by the way, a 30s Joppe, as it's named in German - and the corresponding weather, you'll have to talk to Max: He once said that he is glad to live where he lives because he hates the cold and snow. So different the tastes are...

Went to a concert tonight with my wife, the first time we saw this band together was over 20 years ago, before we were married. Wore my Akubra Stylemaster.

Hi from Germany.
I just found this antique German hat, but It has been hard for me to find any info about the Hatmaker or any info. The color is amazing, and compared with some Stetsons and Mayser I have (new ones) the felt is super smooth and with a velvet kind of Quality.

I would imagine Steve @mayserwegener could help you with that.

Winter weight Royal Stetson for a drizzly day.

Probably not the perfect thread for this question, but I bought a brand new Stetson Temple. The edge of the brim isn’t smooth. Is this normal? It’s basically my first and probably last fedora. Thanks!

I have a Stetson Temple and the edge is smooth. From your photo, it looks like maybe they skipped a step in finishing it.

This looks like a very nice hat, Sir: Congratulations! German from the late 50s to early 60s I guess - in a very nice chamois finish; wonderful colour btw!
Hückel Weilheim, Rockel and aöllll the others produced very similar hats in that time, but I don't know the paper label and so the producer - the best is to wait for Steve, as was said above.
Or you check out the German-Austrian Thread...
Anyway: It is a beauty!

 

[khamus]

Thank you for the words!
I bought it online, with a short description on it. As you mentioned is a 50's to 60's. I love the hat's color and texture.
