What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[RickP]

I saw that hemp Borsalino at auction and had to use great restraint to keep from bidding. I've would have if I hadn't already bought two hats over the past couple of weeks. That will make you a very nice straw that I think you'll love. I'm very glad to see that you got it!

This hat takes care of a couple issues for me... #1 I didnt own a Borsalino and #2...I didnt have a Navy blue hemp hat ( I have a couple Naturals a turquoise, a Black, a Green, and a dark brown but no dark blue ( Im particularly fond of Hemp Stratoliners)

Fed Ex didnt get here with my new $12 Akubra Boomerang till almost 830 last night so I had to rush out at first light to start the day this morning. Really surprised at how great the condition is... no spots, wavy bits and it fits! I havent even brushed this one yet. Truely ready to wear right out of the box!

I love adopting cheap hats!

My understanding if correct is the Stylemaster is Aukubra ‘s oldest design dating from the 1930’s. Certain Queensland store stock a wide variety of colours. I spotted this colour as mentioned in a local old town and country store and they took my order and six months later the hat in my size turned up.

The Stylemaster is probably my favourite design as a city hat. Its close brother the Bogart I have only spotted in black has a wider ribbon and possibly wider brim.

Federation blue is a great strong colour that suits the Stylemaster. May favourite is this one. It is a style well suited to suits and strong colours IMHO.

Dashing as always. Love the high crown what appears be a wider brim that I used to seeing for style. Prefect match to the suit.
