What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Hagwood]

Wearing a grey Resistol Stagecoach that I converted last year. It was originally a 6 7/8 that I blocked up to a 7 1/4.

Before:

On the block:

Brim trimmed to 2 5/8 inches with my handy dandy rounding jack by Rick Walker, (humanshoes), and with my equally handy dandy band block by another fellow Lounger, "Rockwater"...

Completed:

Tall straight crown:

Good enough for dressing up:

Another great job Terry. Looks fantastic.

Thank you buddy!

I wore a classy light weight fedora for a walk. A VS (Artlite silvermist with gray ribbon treatment) Weston. This hat was inspired by the Stetson Weston, which was a Whippet with a "Mode Edge." Art's work of the edge treatment is true art.

This afternoon I went to watch our local birds of prey. Well Dressed Head cap was my choice in the windy conditions.

Be safe, be strong and see you on the streets soon, Eric -

Thanks Bowen. Fortunately my practice deals with Occupational Health, so no obvious sick coming through (we're screening). We're trying to take all precautions. Where I practice is a smaller town with a fair amount of manufacturing but rural too, so not huge amount of cases. Keeping our fingers crossed.

What County are you in. I'm in Franklin and it looks like we have a real problem here with numerous confirmed cases of the Coronavirus. Yesterday Franklin was at 703 cases. I didn't see what that number was today.

 

[Hat and Rehat]

Heading out to the Post Office to mail an Easter basket in an interesting hat I bought at Denver's antique barn. It's a Denver brand called Prior. I couldn't learn anything about online. Cattleman crease kicked front and rear with a brim curl that makes me think I should head to NYC and get a sidekick with a limp called Rat.

 

[St.Ignatz]

Nothing special but it does what a hat is supposed to do.

I hope there are more to come, Stefan

Mayhap, mayhap

Nice buff grey Sutton.




I like that brown color, Bill.

Thanks, Randy. It has some taper and the crown is a bit low on it, but still a decent workhorse hat.

Mayser "Superbe" possibly mid 1950s.

Lovely hat, Steve. Mayser at its finest.

Took a vacation day today and hanging out with Kitty on the patio doing some backyard photography. This crap is starting to get to me. We’ve been very hectic at work because of all this. Wearing the Cavanagh with the Mule Kick in the A$$ crease, as Bowen @AbbaDatDeHat so eloquently puts it.

Decided to celebrate the end of week one of 30 Days to 30 Hats with this late 40s or early 50s Cavanagh Equestrian Derby/Bowler.

Gotta love a hat this cool that also doubles as a helmet

Very nice, Joe. That's a hat that's not afraid to show some character.

Today....well yesterday actually but i was too bushed to post up.
Day two fishing. Sund with my Son Mond with my youngest daughter, Willow’s Mom. Yes, i’m wearing the same hat and outfit, my fishing attire and Maddie got to sport Pop’s old lucky Camo-Cabela’s.
Hat worked for her, i mostly enjoyed watching that “little girl” come back out that gave me so much joy over the years.
Was a glorious and gorgeous day.
Be well and safe.

Great pics, Bowen. Good to see you enjoying yourselves.

Nice, gents. I'll have to dig out my CC and Superbe again View attachment 225863 View attachment 225864 View attachment 225865 View attachment 225863

You just have to be in a climate that supports felts year round, Randy (welcome to the north). Great hat by the way.

View attachment 225906 Such nice and varied hats lately!
#8 is a 40s Stylepark Templeform with a typical bow treatment I installed using vintage Petersham ribbon. Also, hand sewn brim stitching akin to a Playboy.
This one remains in the top three of my favs. The color is a cool blue/gray.

Wonderful shape and proportions, Randall.

Thanks Stefan. We've had a couple of spring like days.



Great looking Battersby. I've been enjoying your walk through the English hats.

Thanks,
Michael

Thanks, Michael. I'm not at the end of the walk yet.

That Moores is outta this world Stefan

Thanks, Alan. It doesn't get that much head-time because it's got some stiff competition.

I like what you’ve done with that one. And i like Petersham ribbon...ala Flagship.
Very nice hybrid Randy!!
B

Thanks, Bowen. I wasn’t a fan of Petersham, but it’s growing on me for two reasons. It’s more available in a wider array of colors, and I’m finding that I’m simply digging the woven edges more and more.

Nice! I like the English homburg and the wide nose left with the far set pinches.
Colors are awesome, too!

Another great conversion and sweet hat tools, Terry! And as the Joker ( Jack Nicholson) said about Batman after his triumphant escape using Bat implements: “Where does he get such wonderful toys?”
