What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Frunobulax]

It's been awhile, so I decided to get the Demon Hanover out of the stables and give it a few laps around the track.

Waiting for a WET WEDNESDAY... Also needing some daylight and air, my MacLachlan.

I'm always amazed by the variety of looks this lid projects. The color, the brim, the bash...

About the same number as you, Charlie, though not nearly as many quotes. Great Mac.

Speaking of quotes, Greg, I've been using yours lately because it's true. I feel more like I do now...

Thanks, Max! Definitely a favorite. As nice as this lid is, imagine what a MacLachlan 100 would be like!!

Your Parabuntal yesterday was a beaut, but completely overshadowed by Mrs. Tejeta and her mighty Milan, if I may say so...

I console myself by thinking maybe some of my other 100s are MacLachlan made.

Coming from a long conversation with a fellow photographer, I found myself wondering how long I didn't show up here

The veiled sun gave me a hand and so here I am in the warm Italian afternoon, with a Borsalino "Sisol" so it is defined on the beautiful sweatband

The hat is very light and almost weightless, with excellent finishes. It was probably built by Tesi in and around Florence, but so be it

Good day lounge mates

I thank Charlie for the call to arms and all the rest of the EU gang for appreciation.
Without Steve (mayserwegener) it is completely useless to think of a convention on European hats, but there is a big problem: his collection is in Baltimore
After these considerations I expand, proposing the topic of discussion: "In Europe there are no beavers"
I would also add that, as every year, in late spring I invited travelers in Italy to visit Verona, it is absolutely worth it, and with the opportunity to meet for some considerations on the hats, so far I have not had answers...

Daniele, So true! By the way fantastic Borsalino Straw today!

That’s it, DREAM ON. It’s quite possible, and the clues could or should be there. Get under your operatory light and take another look. It’s therapeutic!

 

[AbbaDatDeHat]

For my passion about black hat, this is the best of the day, maybe week!
Complimenti

Why thank you Daniele i am honored!
I love black hats. Sometimes it’s the “only” hat that works. Other times it’s the hat of mood. Always the hat of favor!
The Vagabond satisfies each very well.
Be well. Bowen

The Stetson Fortune and Glory went from open crown to a rough Indy bash in less than 10 seconds. Molds like soft clay. This Excellent quality beaver is thick and lush to the hand. No steam needed. 2 5/8 front and back dimensionally cut to 2 1/2 on the sides. Open crown is just under 6" creased to 4 1/2 in the front. My quick bash is certainly not screen accurate but who cares, I like it.

I love this time of year. Sweetcorn, tomatoes, watermelons, muskmelons. Picked up some sweetcorn from a friend's farm and lived up to my name today shucking corn. A nice breeze today with tolerable temps so I wore the Royal Deluxe Open Road.

Greetings All:
Today.....a hat by happenstance.
I grabbed this one just like you’re not supposed to, high on the front crown and the pinch stayed.
So i’m wearing it awhile.
Prob one of the last One Hundreds that was still pretty nice. I guess.
Be well. Bowen

Carl Kellner Hamburg - J. Hückel´s Söhne "Derby". This hat was modified along the way and arrived (November, 2012) in a Campaign Hat Form so also stiffened. The crown was also extended (see photos below). The original hat was made in the 1930s but not sure when the modifications were preformed although they were well done.

Felt spacer strip stitched to the crown about one inch above the brim line was added after paper label. The ribbon was either reattached or replaced.

Here you can see the remnents of the JHS "Derby" label which is original to the hat.

Here you can clearly see the felt strip strip that was added to heighten the crown.

Interesting. Cool hat Steve.
