Well I have my 3rd VS hat in que. This is going to be my summer skeet shooting hat. I like baseball caps and all but we do shoot in the rain. Ball caps just don't keep the rain off of your neck, (and have no style!). I shoot in a winter league also but have a heavier hat for then. I'm going...
Thank you much Bowlerman. The feather is from a Golden Campine. What is odd about this particular feather it has an iridescence at the end which I have never seen on any other of their feathers. So yes it fits the hat! BTW the color is dark cherry.
Yeah Bob Art made a nice one.
Thank you Bob. You've hit the nail right on the head yes casual, funky, dressy all of those.
Art, you are very welcome and maybe you've started a new style of hat!!
I want to introduce my 'Art' Pie. Let me explain... Art & I had a bit of mis-communication over what I wanted. When I contacted Art with pics of what he made and what I wanted he was very gracious and apologized & with the offer to send the hat back, (on his dime), & rectify the...
Yup, J, I just sent in a hat for a new liner, sweat, and ribbon. The ostrich and one of the paisley liners would be stellar. It's enough to know the hat is in good hands.

Bob does awesome work. I had him de-coboy a hat for me and add the band and lining.
I'd like to introduce my recent VS purchase. Limestone beaver. I love the elegant simplicity of the interior & of course it is exactly what I was looking for. She's beautiful!
Many thanks to the forum for me finding Art.
Thanks for the compliment Tommy. It's a 10' hat lol. Kinda like a 10' paint job on a car. And thanks for the input on how to get the ribbon to lay down. Mine doesn't real well in some places for the reasons you guys stated. But it's an ok knock arounder.
Santa brought me a beautiful sundial. It was specifically made for my latitude & longitude. Gnomone & dial both made from brass. It really is a functional piece if artwork. I just have it on my deck right now. Going in the garden this spring. It tells the correct time with in a minute!
Thank you for the post. I made one! Have an inexpensive Blues Brother fedora which had just a plain small black ribbon. I figured I'd attempt replacing it. Didn't turn out to bad.
I worked with a fellow in Pa. that ballroom danced. I heard he was quite good at it. Always had some cloths and shoes in his car.
Myself I'd love to learn do dance to swing music. But alas I have the rhythm of a house plant. :(
Really good question. I got one negative comment a few days ago in a bar from a drunk dude. But all the positive ones certainly more than make up for one drunks negativity. Went to a Big Bad Voodoo Daddy concert Friday night. Afterwards we bought a CD and waiting in line to have them autograph...
Hello, new to the forum, (as you can tel from my post count :) ). I really enjoy sports car racing. I have an older Porsche that I track. Which means I do performance driving on race tracks. Not racing at all but certainly driving at top speeds. I've driven Watkins Glen in NY, Lime ROck Park in...
I am also introducing myself to the community. I'm Mark, a 57 year old, old goat. As with Phillip I am also looking to update my style. No better way to start than with a nice hat. Or than with the era of style, 30's, 40's, & 50's. (Wearing your baseball cap sideways isn't style).
Love the...
