I have a collection of hats. I do love the stingy brim.
Nice! Is it the same hat (with it's original crease) you're wearing in your avatar photo?I've been hanging around in the back ground here. This is my first post.
I love my stingy brims and my Pork Pies. This is an old Cavanagh "Blue Onyx" really really dark. Depending on the light, sometimes it looks dark navy and sometimes it looks dark grey. I got this with a standard center crease and side pinches. Bashed it myself into a tear drop Pork Pie. Love this baby!
Thanks! No, the hat in my avatar is a modern Stetson. I did however modify the bash on this one too! It's now a diamond block Pork Pie.Nice! Is it the same hat (with it's original crease) you're wearing in your avatar photo?
And welcome to The Lounge!
It's what brought me to the lounge, way back when.
What size are you?I've got plenty of stingies. I like my brims around 2 1/8 to 1/4 inches, but 2 is probably my most common brim width in my collection.
I used to be obsessed with 30s/40s fashion, (I guess I still am) but lately I've been all over late 50s/early 60s. Might have something to do with trying to find a style that better suits my current mop top...
Anyhoo, I'm at work, definitely breaking some rules by browsing the lounge. I'll see if I can't get a few pictures of my stingies when I'm home.
I'm a good old fashioned 7 1/4What size are you?
How about Tyrol hats or is it a Trachtenhüte
I'm in Heidelberg here so the hat wandered a little off course
Thanks The wife has relatives living in Germany so we always have a mini holiday there. This year it was Christmas in Baden Baden.I studied in Heidelberg. Great town. A bit expensive but well worth it!
Great shot - the house (mansion) I lived in while studying is just out of view to your right across the river.
The hat looks great, too, btw
Stingy Pork Pies on Parade. Mostly modern. The only vintage is on the left on the hat stand, Cavanagh Blue Onyx.
That's why you get a good quality fur felt stingy--to show the hipsters with their cheap looking stingys how it's supposed to be done.Love the Popeye Doyle (French Connection) pork pie. But generally not much of a fan of stingy brims. Seeing way too many hipsters wearing cheap looking stingy's today.
True enuf!That's why you get a good quality fur felt stingy--to show the hipsters with their cheap looking stingys how it's supposed to be done.
