Trenchfriend....yeah, the hat is 'The Original Stingy PorkPie' from Bob at Black Sheep Hat Works, with a 'Peek a Boo' liner, and a few months later I found the shirt at a tattoo convention... well, I had to, didn't I? ;-)
Hi Guys, sorry I've been absent for a while.... so, how many of you have gone the PorkPie route? come on, you know you want to.... let's start seeing them ..
OK, here's my new Porkpie from Bob at Black Sheep Hatworks
profile..
pin up liner and ostrich sweatband..
back bow and wind trolley..
Many thanks for a stunning hat ..... :eusa_clap
It took approx 6 months.... but it gave us time to discuss the details, like the lowered crown, and the wind trolley, etc..... and remember, good things come to those that wait.... :thumb:
personally, I'd go the custom route... there is nothing quite like a custom hat, and there are a lot of insanely great custom hatters to choose from... I have 2 customs, both of which are featured in this thread.... go on, spoil yourself!! :D
one piece of advice that I took to heart when I started wearing 'real' hats as opposed to baseball caps was, wear the hat, don't let the hat wear you.... the time will come when you'll put on a hat, and not even think about how it sits, because it has become a part of who you are... so enjoy it...
