Post New Hats Here!

[Uhu]

I have been searching for a fedora like Bogart's and I finally found one. I have been wearing a pendleton wool fedora for a couple of years now, but I have never really been satisfied with the look.

Here is my new hat. A vintage "Parkshire" from thr B. R. Baker men's store in Cleveland Ohio.

And I ave been very happy with the results!

Thanks to all the members here. I gained a lot of useful information for my search from lurking on these forums.

About 4 years later, the Parkshire changed hands via eBay. I'm the new owner and very happy with it. It appears Lizardberry changed the creases slightly by sharpening them up, but they look good and I've left them as-is. Very fine hat, has an early (pre-1950s?) look and feel to it and I'm very happy to have it. I wore it for a self portrait I made in PS, and I took it out for a spin today. Definitely one for the favorites pile.

P. & C. Habig Wien "Export Qualität", 59cm, probably late 1950s. This is a NOS from Hut Brömme Nürnberg. Unique color with contrasting band and binding.

Finally getting around to posting this one. Its been around for several days. I've been wanting a Stetson 100 for some time and they rarely come up in my size. After looking for several years for an OR, two pop up in about ten days. I am officially outa the market place for awhile.

Congratz. I would love to have an 100 but the one I want seems to never ever been made.

C. G. Wilke, Brim Over Welt 2 1/2 inches , Crown Open 6 inches, paper label missing, measures 57cm, probably 1920s. I don't see any sign of a tip patch so might have had a liner. The Velour is really fantastic but it has some nicks.

Like the hat, really like the self portrait. Looks like a publicity still for a 1940s or 50s movie.

Such a wonderful piece of history. And touchable as well. Nice.

A Knox Premier I just got not certain maybe someone can help, but I think it's mid 60's or later?

I've never seen a Stetson 100 marked Open Road.

I've seen them marked Open Road on the inside tags (reorder/white tags), but I don't think I've seen one marked OR on the sweatband.

Thanks. As long as it's not dog fur felt, I'm good. <|8^o

My youngest son has been obsessed with the Filson 'hunting hat' I got last year, so I found him this little vintage woolrich one. He's stoked. He's running around outside right now in 78 degree weather with the earflaps down.

Looks great. Love the finish, color and brim treatment. Pretty much the whole hat Alan.

Neither have I. It was a reference to the the sellers listing. Hats stylized as such are often referenced as OR's.
