    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I've done that, but I'm close the cusp for a size 7 1/2 (23 1/4"), and the charts often say to go with the next-bigger size if you're in between. Also, I have experience with several hats (mostly fitted ballcaps, but also the one in the picture, which is a 7 1/2) that are larger. That's why I...

    Introduction

    Hi all. I've had a thing for hats of all kinds for my whole life, but after a nearly decade-long tryst with fitted ballcaps (gasp!) mixed with whatever I've had lying around, I find myself easing back toward classier fare. I'm quite find of my Harris tweed hat (see avatar), and would love a...
