    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    With that FINE hat on your head you certainly don't look ill. Of course, who's looking at you, I'm focused on the hat! A great fedora on one's head always cranks you up at least one notch on the scale.

    For wooden crown blocks how much bump in circumference is given to no sweatband? In other words: if you want to do casual reblock without sweat removal on a 7 1/8 hat do you use a 7 1/8 block or a 7 block or is the sweat vs no sweat equal to a half size between the two?

    Western, anyone?

    What you describe can be caused by stretching a shrunk hat with the typical simple stretcher. The stretcher is right at the same as sweat width and when you stretch it the crown expands and the sweat draws down a little after it sits or is worn. I have created that same stretch mark situation...

    Akubra Bogart in Carbon Grey review

    When you are a long oval skull and you put on a regular oval hat it deforms the hat brim and sometimes the crown. Take one of your hats and elongate it to a long oval and you'll see the deformation.

    Powder blue is the name Michael called it in emails. Charcoal edge and ribbon. I had concerns that my lopsided egg head might have issues with the more round oval but it fits perfect with no cranial abnormality bash distortion (is that a thing?). Comfortable but snug enough to hang on in...

    Got my Gannon yesterday. What a fine hat!!! The feel of the felt is so much like 100% beaver of 50 years ago.

    I'm very pleased with the hat color as pictured. I wanted a color combo that was not available without a bulk order from Winchester. That first choice color would have allowed me an upsized modern version of a Knox fedora I have. The powder blue /charcoal gets me something different an unlike...

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    I went to the UPS store today to get the office mail. There was a large crowd with a long line that had to snake back and forth to be able to get everyone inside. I was wearing a charcoal wool overcoat and a recent black Stetson Whippet. I got several compliments and comments from those I was...

    I do not envy you on your daily selection of which hat to wear. Just choosing between these two would drive me mad. I'd have to don one wear it a distance then take it off and store and run back and put on the other and go the same path. Repeating this all the route.
