Staying with the Cavanagh brims or Guild edge as it is called on this 1950s Dobbs fifteen dollar hat. Could probably use another month or two of cooling off for this black felt… but the lower humidity this week had me itching to bring out this black beauty

I enjoy these early 60s Dobbs, I've got a couple. They were still making higher quality, full featured hats during the period. Not soon after, everything went in the dumper.

first time wearing a new to me Stetson 6X:

Classic weave Brent. I like the air conditioning feature. Our straw days up here in Oregon seem to be done for.

I suspect with the oil skin liner and price point with these features this one may be 50s. But I do agree by mid 60s we start to see quality drops across the board. Starting with sweatbands and overall smaller dimensioned hats both in brim and crown. We still end up with some decent stingies then

I was wearing a Stetson Open Road during my dog soiree this morning.

Morning run to grocery in this Buckaroo Hatters beaver/mink blend, black cherry. (Actually, I’m sitting in the car checking the threads while the wife does the shopping!)

Roof coating a mobile home today, hot enough had to go straw today. Only 80°f but feels much hotter up there. This is the second summer on this Twister bangora. Cheap hat but a tough one.

My cousin, Jorge Valle Tejeda, died last night from the virus. He was 66, and hadn't been vaccinated. I hope everyone in the group has been.

Sorry to hear doc. My wife and I are both 65, and got ours earlier this summer. Better safe than sorry, as they say.

Sorry about that, Max.
I’ve lost 3 cousins in the last month to covid. Two over 60 and one 49.
Sad. None had the vaccine.

Out to my grandnephew's 16th birthday party at a local restaurant. Grandpa's in town this week and he wanted to go to his favorite restaurant, then go to see the new Clint flick.

Grandpa's just busting his buttons over that!

Stetson Playboy for the ride there.

Which was replaced after I arrived.

Another black hat.. this one a bit shorter brim. I thought this impromptu Cavanagh edge week could use an actual Cavanagh branded Cavanagh Edge hat. The brim my be shorter on this twenty-five dollar 1960s hat… but it is still well appointed in true Cavanagh style.

Masks are back in a lot of California, so I don my disguise for a trip to Costco. I hate wearing the things, but I’ll do my part.

You have a lot of nice hats, Jim but this hat just checks all the boxes. Very nice.
