    Post New Hats Here!

    Yep, in that area hat decoration is dust or cotton gin lint. Thanks, I have been to Joe's a few times when I was in that area but some reason I forgot about the Joe's-Clovis connection.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Unless someone shows up with a Whippet that is plaid wool felt with paisley ribbon and polka dot edge binding I'm going to say that Stetson never made a less than fantastic whippet. What great displays by Mike and Ale.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    That lee Cameo is a great looking hat. It has such a good brown color to begin with and the brim edge and ribbon colors really distinguish from so many other brown fedoras. It looks like a VS or Optimo or other custom that someone might have taken great pains to choose trim colors instead of a...

    Practical uses for hats

    Keep the dew from settling on your head when sleeping in the great outdoors. Keep sawdust from getting in your hair when using circular saw. Keep sun out of eyes when driving as a good hat is a far better sun visor than what is fitted to trucks and cars. Location device so your significant other...

    One of "those days"...

    If I woke up and didn't care to wear a hat I would hope someone would get me evaluated for possibly having had a stroke or check carefully on my temples for burn marks from electro-shock therapy. I think the last time I didn't want to wear hat was when they anesthetized me for dental surgery. I...

    For Sale: various vintage tools

    The something or another is indeed a valve lapping tool. Back in the early days of automobiles those were used very often.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I'd be careful wearing that hat Josh, you'll end up with guys in suits following you in a plain dark Crown Victoria. Did you notice any conservatively suited guys around you talking to their wrists when you wore it?

    I like this one a LOT. Looks great and looks great on you. Proportions and colors suit you very well. I assume it is the Stetson.

    Would a man be buried with his Stetson 100?

    The old belief was that you wanted to look your best for "judgement". In the days when hats were integral part of "wearing your best" you'd want your hat with you. My maternal grandfather died just before I was born. My mom always commented on my affection for wearing a hat as me taking after...

    A Sartorial Question: Do you Fit Hat to Clothes or Other Way 'Round

    Get out of shower, dry off, don the hat I care to wear and then figure out the rest. If someone comes in right after I have chosen the hat at least I won't feel naked.

    Which Custom Hat First???

    The difference between Pachuco style and California and Nevada buckaroo style is slight. I thought Pachuco hats were flanged to have pronounced "snap". Buckaroo has a slight roll on a flat brim.

    No comment.

    That hat makes open scalp sore baldness look good.

    Instructions on How To Wear a Hat

    Is the guy in the hat the same one who gets wrapped around tractor PTO shafts, pours acid on his hand and it eats part of it away, Sticks his foot under lawnmowers with horrid results, and I think he had a large round hay bale fall on him. I wouldn't trust him with my worst hat.

    The Stetson One-Hundred "100"

    Thanks. That is what I thought was the case but I did brief searches and found something with a recent date listing employee numbers. It seems the St Jo westerns were St Jo felt as of the end of the 80's.
