    How did you start wearing hats?

    I think Alan's reply is the best :D but I started wearing a black fedora bought from a local men's outfitters (which has sadly gone the way of most of them) when I was around 20 and thought it looked cool. I've worn hats on and off for much of the past 20yrs for similar reasons, but have only...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Javier - very nice straw. Looks like you had a good time too. RJ - It's a great beater to be addicted to. Justin - The cap works really well with the suit. Bowlerman - It still looks a nice hat. Good luck with the stretching. A lighter coloured felt is on my (long) want list. David - lovely...

    Nice expo Justin. You're developing quite a collection of furry beasts.

    Looks good Sam. Alan - nice hat, you definitely look a little de-saturated still :D -------- Squinting into the sunshine in a bargain Biltmore. Yes the tie is too matchy :( The sun is making the hat look a little shiny, but apart from the ribbon it's honestly quite matt.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Alan - your deserved pride comes through in that smile. David - Great minds think alike (or fools seldom differ ;) ), I went with a grey straw with burgundy pug today too. I have to say your Milan is somewhat nicer than the basic straw I wore though! Andy - interesting belt band on that...

    BJ - Looks good to me. I don't have a real preference for crown height yet, but I've not really got anything with a substantial crown. Bowlerman - that silver colour is very striking, I like it. David - Looking good. Warmest we're looking at this week is mid-60's. --- Thanks for the...

    Western, anyone?

    Interesting about Christy's. I think an OR is about as far as you could push the western style over here before people thought you were wearing fancy dress.

    Yes not the loveliness of a Milan, but not bad looking and practical. Some shots of the other three Biltmores - I think the cloth tagged ones are probably 80's, but it's a guess: The unbranded straw that came with them was a bit of a make-weight, but these four were worth the BIN.

    David - I like that Worth & Worth a lot - understated elegance Tom - Lovely Playboy Sam - three nice hats, and you're making me wish I'd put a bid on that Fortis. ------------------------ Today, the for'Kendall - Milne' again:

    The Conversion Corral

    Hi Bond - Thanks, but sadly I have a 7 1/2 - 7 5/8 bonce. I shall try tacking down the corners and see what my efforts look like. It's clearly something that needs practice :o

    One of four Biltmore straws than arrived in a box with an unbranded straw. Two of the Biltmores have cloth tags attached to the sweatband, which from the font I would think date from the 80's (original price ticket of $22.50 still attached), the other two had this sticker, and the same sweat...

    Thanks for the comments on the furry beast. John- Very nice looking Dobbs - I love that ribbon, and the rest of your outfit works well with it, without looking too coordinated. Robert - Very nice panama - I loke the swoop on the sides. g.durand - I could do with some 'youthful smartness' :D...
