Here's a visual take of my hats. Click on the picture, please.

Great show, Aureliano, beautiful hats there. I see you have several Worth and Worth. I assume you like them, how do they compare with the vintages and with your customs?
I have considered buying one from them, because they have some vintage looking styles that are pretty nice... Worth it?

Totally worth it. Their hats are of amazing quality. Best of any modern made I've seen. They are made, I believe but could be wrong, at the same factory where Cervo and Barbisio come from, in Sagliano Micca.

Sounds good man. So do you have a favorite? Or a top 5?

I am going to sell or trade a couple today - but they are too small for me so probably too small for you too. If I don't count my VS hats, my current favorites are:

Royal Deluxe Stetson

Just sitting here doing a rough count, 12 or 13 hats, to include;
2 Akubras
1 Marathon
3 Stetsons
4 flat caps
2 Tilleys
1 WIDE brim straw

I think that's it, but my wife thinks it is approximately 11 too many. Her premise being, you can only wear one so why have 12!

Are those spots or blotches on that hat, Crazy Legs? Great proportions and brim binding; a good fit for your visage.

How many hats do you have?

Hi everyone,

New member here (although I've been lurking for awhile) so greetings from Lancaster County, PA where we still have "road apples" on our streets. I've only recently starting wearing fedoras on a semi-regular basis. While looking at all the posts it seems like I see a lot of you posting pictures wearing a lot of different hats. I currently have three. So I was wondering, how many hats do you currently own?

My wife thinks too many, and I actually haven't counted. We all wear hats, but some of us just like having a huge variety to pick from, while others are happy to have just a few they like and wear. You have color, style differences, felt vs straw, etc. so there are many reasons to have multiple hats. It just depends on your preferences and your budget. Many of mine are Ebay finds that are not extraordinarily expensive, but you can also spend many dollars for customs. I'm sure I have at least 50.
