    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    :arated: Those are two very sharp lids, gentlemen. Here's a Stetson Muleskinner (western) reblocked, brim trimmed, and the ribbon changed. The felt color is chamois.

    Welcome, Leesensi. That is a terrific picture. It has a 50's vibe and the huge fluffy snowflakes are lovely.

    Wil, Once you have that one cleaned-up and have reshaped the crease, you'll have a fine looking hat. Looking forward to the "after" pictures.

    NEWS BOY CAPS

    Burnsie, The deep cut looks just about perfect on you. Nice choice of fabric and pattern as well. This one should look great with an A-2!

    Madcap72, Royal Deluxe is a felt quality designation, not a style designation. Brim widths will vary by style. The brim width can also vary within a style.

    Silly Seersucker question

    :arated: Cole Haan made a classic lace-up saddle shoe that also works well. I have a pair like these in white with blue saddles that look excellent with a blue seersucker suit.

    Canvas camp tub???

    Neat item! I've read about these in various books about safaris. Looks like an item that might have been furnished by an outfitter such as Abercrombie and Fitch. Anyone have a vintage A&F Catalog? I remember bathing in a galvanized tub in the kitchen but never in a canvas tub.

    Now Presenting: A Remarkably Strange Stetson Whippet

    Now Presenting: A Remarkably Strange Stetson Whippet

    The Continental is/was a Stetson style. A Continental is not a Whippet . There have been several examples of the Continental posted on the FL over the past few years. Does anyone have pictures showing a Continental stamp on a sweatband and a Whippet designation in the liner of the same hat? If...

    Name that Hat!

    I had a conversation with JP about this recently. The ridge is easily obtained when reblocking a straw. He simply affixes a string to the part of the block where he wants the ridge before putting the hat on the block.
