    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    I know we're in the hat forum, but wanted to say I really love that shirt, especially the "ink splatter" pattern. :D

    Western, anyone?

    Nice! And it really suits your face shape, @ILB Frank I actually like the gentle curve it has now.

    OTHER THAN eBAY Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Hunh.... I've not seen anything like that before. Did the felt split along the stitching for the sweatband? Or is this a two-piece construction bowler?

    Yup, Belfast - makes total sense. Mind you, I view festivals as just big outdoors clubs (e.g. outdoors raves) ;)

    I've assumed (and maybe it's a bad assumption) that the "nick foquet" style hat fans are in their 20s & 30s who go clubbing. Nothing wrong with that, but that's not my crowd. Then again... I'm not sure who IS my crowd in these pandemic-infused times, where I'm actively trying to NOT get stuck...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    IANAL, but my understanding is that successful false advertising cases revolve around total $$$$ involved. For one $35 hat? Heck, one $200 hat? Utterly pointless - maybe a half dozen people were misled by the text on the Stetson website. Now, if the false advertising were about a 7-figure...

    True, true. I'm more looking for info for myself: *I* don't want to destroy a rare 1930's hat! Pretty sure that's not what I have here, but since I've never heard of this particular hatter, I was wondering if anyone else had.

    Does anyone know anything about Breyer hats of Chicago? I bought this deep navy blue hat off the bay a few weeks back, planning on remaking as a pork pie for my brother, with a contrasting ribbon. It’s rather gaudy In its current configuration with a gold buckle (ugh), so I’m guessing it’s...

    The Noble Schoble

    Here’s my johhnyphi Schoble, bought right here on the Lounge, umm… 14 years ago? Has it really been that long? I don’t wear it often, yes… because I have too many (*) hats, but also because I truly love keeping it near mint: (*) can we really have too many? Edit: size is 7 1/8

    John - I wonder if the hat size itself matters? Looking at Noah, he wears it really high - look how far up from his ear it resides. As such the "square" is actually pretty small.

    3 hats on ebay: Stetson, Akubra, Churchill

    Yeah, monitors are funny... as are auto-white balanced photographs ;-) I'm mostly taking cues from the hat band and desk, which are clearly brown, and makes the felt look more gray/green. Here's what photoshop says:

    Heya Norm - What color would you call the Down Under? Looks kind of mossy-green in the photo, but says "brown" in the description.
