What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[wsmontana]

Akubra Bushman gets the call today (no, this isn’t the only hat I own but it is usually with me in photogenic areas ).

Hatband repurposed from the 1/2” brim trim from another hat.

Echter Mayser "Flaum", possibly late 1950s and a recent arrival. In the time it would have worn mostly with the Brim Up or what Mayser and others called. "Camber".

Die Camber Form / The Camber - Shape, Mein Neuer Hut / My New Hat!, Mayser Advertisement, mid 1950s.

Nice, are the hats made to wear brim up 'camberstyle' or can you also snap the brim?

Marcel, Thanks! They can be Snapped but in the time they were mostly worn Brim Up / Camber. I have moved more in this direction myself especially with wider Brim Soft Felts.

Hello once again.

I'm thoroughly enjoying the amazing hats gentlemen.
Here is a Dunn and Co " The Polo". Recently acquired. Not too sure on details about this as I've been too busy. Deep navy. Big crown on this for an european hat, which i really like. Feels more at home with all of your wonderful American style larger crowns which we rarely see in Australia. Sized at 58. Needs a brush, and its leached a tiny bit of wax in the sweatband which I will fix up, but its in fantastic condition.
Cheers all

Ian

A clear, cold morning, warming up by midday. Frost and mist over the fields at sunrise.

For the occasion, I wore a "Super Barbisio - Antilope" in a grey-green shade, featuring an "Antilope" felt finish—stamped right onto the front of the sweatband.

A Barbisio from the golden age, finished impeccably. It’s a truly high-class piece.

And thank you all so much for your likes, as well as for the wonderful hats you share here every day.

VERY nice, Daniele. And I also love that sweater-jacket!

I love my Dark Blue hats....they kind of change a little under different light. I have quite a few and do wear them. YESTERDAY I wore this blue long hair (those I do not wear as often as I should).

Biltmore "Ayette" Canadian Beaver Deluxe Finish in Navy....
