    Western, anyone?

    Here’s a new style for my head, just picked it up yesterday. I couldn’t just leave it on the shelf for the asking price. Maybe a little over the top, but who cares? Bailey “B Bar B” gambler.

    Western, anyone?

    I was pleased to be able to wear this hat in the state where it was made. My first time not just driving across Texas last week, in Fort Worth. Some of the best fajitas I’ve had in years, too.

    Didn’t get a chance to try that place but I was really impressed by all the food I had: Local Market, Velvet Taco, Lockhart Smokehouse, and Joe T’s. I had never been to Fort Worth before, but I’d definitely go back! side note— a Google search led me to some interesting hat factories in Garland...

    That is super cool, Stefan! I tried different configuraions, but the cord is elastic, and too short to sit around the brim break. Oh well, I can try fixing it on a little lower sometime.

    I really like the rumpled look too! I gave it a good steaming and removed the trolley. I decided to see if I could sponge off the sweatband finish. It seems to have worked beautifully. Of course the band now has no stamps, but I don’t really care. It will be interesting to see how the sweatband...

    Picked up this Knox Player at an outlet. The felt and blocking are wonderful. There are some minor defects. The button cord wind trolley is sewn too high where it is anchored, but I don’t really care. However the veneer on the sweatband crumbles off easily. Anyone know how to remedy that? Or...

    @steur Stefan, Oh my goodness, that Knox!!! Also, I would love to find one of those Wegener seal velours that you and Steve post. That finish is intriguing to me, and looks super classy.

    The Bowler or Derby Hat

    I distinctly remember that scene and that hat from Hell on Wheels. A real beauty. In my experience the closest nomenclature would be a Cambridge bowler, which is blocked tall, with straight sides and a slightly flatter top over some still gently rounded shoulders. Think Odd Job, maybe? I'll...

    Happy St. Patrick’s Day. I always have a little fun on this holiday. This year it began last weekend since I had all of my kids here at the same time. Here are the recent hats of the day. Baron Hats dark moss bowler, Hannah Hats flat cap, an awkwardly cut flat cap in Cape Breton tartan, from...

    Thanks man! I wish it were actually beaded, but it is just an inexpensive woven band. I agree that it goes well with the hat though!
