Back of Hat

[clevispin]

Lots of interesting bashes and creases - and they look dandy when viewed from the front and sides and even the top. BUT, the back of the hat pales in comparison. Not much definition happening at the back of the hat. Prove me wrong? Ideas?

clevispin-here you go--Stetson Open Road in a diamond crease, which is just as interesting as the front in my book.

Here is the back of a Dobbs Savoy that had a center crease and I changed to a teardrop crease.

Back of hats - Hats have a sculptural shape to them. Back, side, bottom, and front IMO.

Above are some still life back shots.

Best, Eric -

Here's my mid 70's to mid 90's Stetson conversion from the back..deep center crease makes this one interesting.


And my Borsalino Como.


Hmmm...looks like it needs a little attention from this angle.

Nice flock of hats there Eric. I hope nesting season starts soon here in NorCal.

There's always back bows, too.

Good effort gents. But I'm still not seeing it. The optimo crease in a straw comes closest to what I'm thinking of, maybe a Smokey Bear too. The back bow - more lipstick than substance...

Ever been a double bash - same bash front & back?

Sculptural - Indeed in 3D. But the purr old back - they all look like the same stovepipe
