What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[VoodooSan]

Another Dobbs today...2 3/4" brim with overwelt & a 1 5/8" grosgrain ribbon. Originally sold by Roos Bros California.

VERY handsome, Timmy. Sidenote: until I saw this post, and that sweatband, I never knew that Roos-Atkins, a department store from my childhood/adolescence, was formed by a 1957 merger, and that one-half of that merger was Roos Brothers!

Noisy night with thunder and lightning. Lost sleep but drug myself out of bed at 5am for the gym. When done it was all humid, cloudy, and grey so I went back to bed till 10am ( Guess I WAS tired). Finally woke up to bright sunny blue skies and 70+ degrees. ( evidently last night despite all the noise and light, we had zero rain) Thats a much better way to start a day! Its Gooooood to be retired and have that option!

With the bright sky, I felt like a black hat this morning. Pulled a favorite black Stetson Key Club Dexter off the wall. An Imperial grade/ Ultimate Finish felt. My favorite 2-5/8" brim , 5-1/2"crown. To me this is a beautifully soft smooth hat.

Plopped my caboose out on the patio with a good dark roast coffee and some nice light English tobacco (Peterson Early Morning Pipe in a Peterson Kapet 15)

a bit of Rick's East Texas trivia....The coffee mug is almost 20 yrs old.... its a "Black" Labrador cup from when I first got my previous Lab. After she passed I ended up adopting a somewhat troubled 2 yr old Chocolate Lab (Mr Moose who is now just fine). By that time the Black on the Coffee mug had faded to a perfect Chocolate color... Ill call it serendipity... The mug marches on to match another dog!

Only flat brimmed hat I’ve ever had.
Not sure it’ll stay this way.
Early/mid 60s Stetson 3X in a light cream color I’ve never seen on a western.
Was very dirty and had a cattleman’s crease so it wasn’t easy getting the dirt off the raised crease area on a light colored. Still dirty here and there, but we’ll call it character and real world patina. View attachment 685520 View attachment 685521 View attachment 685522

Love the hat and color. I’ve seen that color here in Colorado and love it! Did you add the ribbon band?

Mossant. I changed the crown of this one to my liking. The crown was very low, so changed it in a center dent, now it looks more higher.
