What is your size???

If it be 7 3/8 I am eye'in up those shorter brimmed black homburgs in the back corner.

What is your size???

Fortunately for me, 7 1/8! I find it hard to get hats to fit me, 7 3/8 - must be impossible!

 

[job]

I would love more vintage hats but my hat size is a 7 5/8. I see western hats in my size. People who wear cowboy hats have bigger heads than city slickers. How often do you see Whippets, Stratoliners, Playboys, etc in a 7 5/8. On the upside I have grown a fondness for some vintage westerns.

 

[bowlerman]

The Elizans-- What a great photo!

 

[zetwal]

Yea, that's rough. But unless you need a large number of hats, you should be able to find some satisfaction over time. Over recent years, I've seen offered a couple dozen great fedoras in the 1/2 to 5/8 range.

 

[gtdean48]

I'm a 7 5/8 & have got a decent collection of vintage Stetsons, Resistols, Borsalinos, Marathon & Pilgrim.
I have sold a few to other LNL = Large Noggin Loungers. They are out there but take time to locate.

 

[guillaumeb]

How many hats do you own ?

I searched and could not find a thread on this topic.

I personally own 10-12 hats

 

[hatsRme]

This pole is anonymous, right? Otherwise I'm not telling.

This question has been raised on other threads, it seems, and I think you may need a "More" category. shhhhhhhh

 

[gtdean48]

Who's counting?

 

[guillaumeb]

Yup anonymous
Gee

 

[Strapped-4-Cache]

Where's the "More than my wife knows about" option?

Not saying I'd click on it unless this poll could be guaranteed as anonymous, but, well, you know.

 

[jlee562]

I think I'm past two dozen at this point, but I honestly don't know. [huh]

Obviously with a minute of thought, I could figure it out, but that response is less fun.

 

[hatsRme]

How about almost enough?

 

[GregNYC]

One hat less than I "need"!

 

[RJR]

What Greg said !

 

[Big J]

2 fedoras, 1 panama, 1 top hat, 1 beaver Stetson, 1 straw Stetson, 3 different USAF repro caps.
