Ask a question, get an answer
I was also curious about this a few weeks ago too. My new angle of attack that may require a few attempts, is basing the dimensions off a conical cylinder. https://keisan.casio.com/exec/system/1223372110 Where the bottom circumference should be approximate to hat size (and then some, allowing... -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Packing to head back home at the moment, so this was actually yesterday's hat (not felt, alas). But, greetings from the top of Haleakala, the larger of the two volcanoes that form Maui. Too many clouds on top to spot @jonesy86 a few islands over. -

Photos of hatters tools
I've linked that one before. It seems slightly less foolproof to make manual adjustments rather than having a dedicated tool for each size curl, but if course the trade-off is versatility and price. Decou also offers this... -
The Open Road Guild
It's one of those questions with no definitive answer, only different opinions. Leo Fender sold Fender guitars in 1965. "Pre-CBS" Fenders are highly collectable but everything after is still a Fender guitar. I'll often differentiate by calling it a 'Hatco Stetson' or just 'modern Stetson,'... -

Hey look, an Open Road pic! Modern vented shantung, road not so open. -
Scotch Guard? Scout Felt Hat Protector?
Repeatedly wearing your hats to the point where they get entirely soaked through is not good for any hat. Modern borsos are not good hats. -

Musician's hats
From Minnesota via Nairobi, Kenya, J.S. Ondara. (Eric Tanner for Rolling Stone) Not sure what this hat is...I was almost thinking it was a Stetson Fortune and Glory but doesn't look like a dimensional brim. -

Nothing bad about Brent Black, but if $2,500 seems extreme, don't ask about the 25k hat. -
Would California's AB44 ban fur felt hats?
Well, the real target of the ban is fur clothing ala mink and fox tails. There was a vintage store here in the Haight that was allegedly selling furs out of a secret back room and they got raided. I mentioned earlier that I wrote the Supervisor that authored the SF city ban. Usually I assume... -

Would California's AB44 ban fur felt hats?
Absolutely. Even advocates for further action on plastic would agree to the sentiment that the straw legislation is 'low hanging fruit' and that its falls far short of systemic action. But like I said earlier, these are not mutually exclusive problems. It's not as if all other items on the... -
Would California's AB44 ban fur felt hats?
SF is currently in the process of building a new homeless navigation center. Construction got held up because some NIMBYS didn't want it near the waterfront and their expensive condos. Berkeley is expected to approve $60mil in bonds for a new homeless and veteran housing complex and are looking... -
Would California's AB44 ban fur felt hats?
Interesting. The text does seem like it would eliminate fur felt hats. SF already has an existing ban, but I wrote one of the Supervisors, who wrote back saying a fur felt product would not be targeted by the city ban. I dunno Brent, I read these two as banning hats except for religious... -

Show us their hats!
Stumbled upon this interesting article about the scientists trying to save native Australian wildlife from feral cats. This is Dr. Katherine Moseby, presumably wearing an Akubra.
