What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Thanks, R! Frankly, I know it's just a red baseball cap, but it is vintage, and I am seriously considering future ownership of another fedora besides the grey Dobbs I still own. I'm still a thin ribbon man at heart. Vintage baseball caps are just cheaper, and right now cheap for me is good... -

New Indy Flick Poll
Liked parts of it. Not others. It was like an orange with seeds, you have the flavor and the annoying parts, too. Kept looking at Indy's fedora and feeling very happy for Steve Delk. The hat looked great even when it was being abused. dean- deanglen

Rule of thumb for hat ribbons?
A pet theory I have on this involves ratios. If the brim is 1 1/2", a ribbon of greater width will probably not be as sucessful, i.e., I prefer a less than 1:1 ratio ribbon to brim or 1:2 more ideally, or less, on the case of an Open road which is traditionally 3/8" ribbon to 2 3/4" to 3"... -
I Got The "Brim Too Wide" Blues!
Give yourself time to get used to it. No way is that brim too wide. dean -
pointy head?
Indycop and I agree. All of mine touched, and there's no hair up there to intervene, but after a while it feels like the only "right" way. dean -
