Growing appreciation for all styles of hats of the Fedora Lounge

[bolthead]

True, some guys can pull off wearing a topper, and even more so a boater. I have to say though, they are 2 hats I'll probably never own. I used to say the same thing about a bowler/derby too, but I now own one. [huh]

That's a fine Bowler. I had a nice Bowler A Goorin Bros Clockwork (a brown version of the bowler from Clockwork Orange) and it was a good 'n. Unfortunetly it was stolen from me in a bar.

But I am pleased so many different hats are making there way out and about, not just on the lounge but in society. God bless the hat.

I stumbled across the FL when looking to find a classic Fedora big enough for my non-vintage-friendly-head and agree with y'all that seeing such a variety of looks can certainly broaded your appreciation.

I doubt I would have considered a stingy before but now wear my Akubra Hampton more than my other brimmed hats. I found my ideas on colour have also changed as I was always drawn to darker hats in the past but now love the lighter colours.

Education by osmosis I guess.

Personally I'm not a fedora chap... don't believe I can pull off the look. I own a bowler, though, and it serves as my usual daywear...

I like to think the 'Lounge exists to honour general style, rather than a specific hat, name notwithstanding. Thus the more hats, the better.

I think he wrote on Farcebook that he wanted to assassinate me so he can have my topper (cf. 'Top hat reblocking' thread)...

I must admit that my hat obsession has now focused primarily on top hats since entering the world of hats.

Hahah, I was just joking but don't underestimate how much I like that top hat of yours.......lol lol
