    Going Atomic With Dalton

    Thanks Jim! It is actually just a bit darker grey in person than in the pics, and the brim is not stiff at all. Just the tension from the binding to give it some structure. I thought at first it might have been a previous owner curling the brim on a fedora, but then decided it was too well done...

    Going Atomic With Dalton

    Tbh, I'm not sure this one would work for you. When I said it was on the smaller side of 7 1/8, I wasn't kidding. Closer to a 7, and it doesn't feel like it wants to stretch at all. With that thin felt showing every little deformation (and the dreaded sweatband line... ) plus the extra layer of...

    Going Atomic With Dalton

    Here's the insides... The union label is the earlier one, so could be as late as the mid forties, but it just seems to have.a thirties vibe. The felt is so thin and light at 105g,that it can be moved with a breath. The brim is 2 3/8"and the crown 5 3/4". The hat is odd in that while the rest...

    “WTF’ Hats,” that are hard to believe...

    I'd guess that the "average person", including the 100 people surveyed for the game show, would not know the difference between a nice fur felt fedora from the Golden Age and a crappy tweed or houndstooth "fedora" from the seventies. Or a porkpie, a deerstalker, a flat cap or a hard hat for that...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Hey all! This entry-level Homero Ortega Cuence isn't fine or fancy, but it is my first Panama, and also the cause for my catching the straw hat bug. I have nicer straws, but this one is very light and comfortable on a warm afternoon like this. Have a great day!

    Thanks Jim! It's way more fun to not conform. Plus way too warm to not wear straw!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Thanks! I just used the solid stuff right out of the jar. About 1/2 tsp rubbed in just with finger heat to soften it. It only took about half an hour to absorb and do it's magic. The brim was very dry, and creaked ominously and made a cardboard-y sound when snapped down. One application of oil...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Hey everyone! It's a beautiful Mendocino Coast day, so I thought I'd break the rules and busted out this old colonial blocked Adam Royal Quality Panama that I bought several years ago from Shopgoodwilldotcom. The brim, previously dry and stiff, is still very pliable after treating it with...

    Thanks for sharing that technique! I successfully resisted buying this one, but that may come in handy in the future.
