What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[deadlyhandsome]

I haven’t been participating in Stingymas this year, but this new Resistol Beaver 5X Kitten Finish would fit right in:

I wore my Tirard Ragondia (nutria) for Stingymas and work today. I neglected to get a photo, so I put it on at home later in the evening.

Thank you for your likes and appreciations on the lobbia Borsalino "Mirtillo"

I continue with hats from a distant era

Ecuyer & Thomas a few years older than the Borsalino.
No indication of color or anything else, just the size which is a full 60 or a 6 1/2 for the French and a 7 1/2 in the USA.
It is a little large for my head, but a thickness brings it back into wearable condition.

A comment on this homburg or "Diplomatique": the felt is very thin as is the sweatband and being unlined makes it one of the lightest homburgs I have worn

For lovers of completeness I also attach a photo of the inside of a hat probably built between the 1920s and 1930s and arrived new some years ago.

Congratulations for the array of hats that invades the screen every day.
I really appreciate "stingys" for Christmas. I will try to open an "Italian" chapter in the next few days.

StingyMas Day 9: This old Stetson.

Toller Hut und Aschenbecher!

I don't use tobacco anymore but when I once did in Germany and we could still smoke indoors, those solid little ashtrays were in all the pubs (Kneipe). It's a fond memory.

I don't miss tobacco but somehow at the same time I do. I actually wonder if it might be why our culture is so cranky these days (or at least a contributing factor): western civ is suffering from collective nicotine withdrawal!

Thank you! I have other smoking related items. I might have an interesting addition on the way.

Woohoo!!!!

On the Ninth Day of StingyMas…..

A stingy Stratoliner??? More than likely this one had a brim trim at some point. But the short brim on this late 1940s early 50s Strat with its big boxy crown really gives off some 1930s vibes

What hat did you send Santa’s way?

What hat did you send Santa’s way?

A (non-stingy brim) Cavanagh and some cheddar.

And milk and cookies, of course.

My final contribution to the Stingymas celebrations. This Christys Exclusive Kent Fur Felt Trilby was my first fur felt hat. It remains my stingiest at 4cm.
Christys’ appalling customer service was also what gave me the push to sign up to the Lounge. Being new to hats, I didn’t know if I could snap the brim down, or if doing so would damage the hat. I politely asked the online help several times. They always said they would pass on my question. I got messages to say I was in a queue for answers, but none ever came. After getting frustrated, I sent angry messages saying that surely they could answer such a basic question about one of their own hats. Every question, from the polite beginnings to the angry, and finally blunt and rude ones were routinely ignored.
It took about two minutes from me signing up for the Lounge until Brent gave me the answer I was after.
Perhaps I should be grateful to them for getting me onto the Lounge.

This Gingerbread Cavanagh “Gabron” (excuse the five-second crease).
