Post New Hats Here!

[Aureliano]

Very cool, Robert. I like the gray/burgandy combination. Reminds me of my Borsalino from W&W

My inclination is to leave the hat in this form.

That's what I'd do too. And show it to Graham, as well.

Generous 2-3/4"+ brim with binding that seems to be over a doubled or felted edge. High quality fairly dense and weighty felt. Picasa operating normally again[huh]

Another fab hat for this week rlk.

Robert, fitting that you have a Guyer hat in Chicago

 

[alanfgag]

Excellent, Robert. :eusa_clap

I second that.

Anyone have any ideas about this? It looks like it was made last week. I'm not sure if the brim can be finished in the U.S? A nice piece of weaving in its present form - perhaps it should stay that way.

I am sure that was a hood a Lounger was selling on B&S before.

Very nice, rik, but does anyone else in the mid west get any hats between you and jtl.

Nice! That has a genuine Fort Worth kick (the front dent on the crown), something you don't see too often.

Come down here to Ft.Worth and you see a lot of 'em. BTW, the Ft. Worth crease has that "kick" in the front AND the back

"Pimp" Hats

British A.J.White Ltd.

Longhair Velour matches Optimo's Indigo color.

Italian sexually-ambiguous Barbisio "Open Mind":

Large white diamonds in matching longhair velour on each side of the crown. Looks like it once had a band around the crown of medium width-likely self-felt.

I'm just trying to imagine what my girls would say if I tried to wear these out of the house. Love them both.

I suspect that wearing them inside the house may also prompt comment.

 

[Art Fawcett]

Wow..white french belting on a mans hat?

You stole my line, Zetwal! lol
