+1This is the best reason I've heard so far for having a feather on a hat.
Very cool!I've never been a feather guy but yesterday I was resting after doing a little yard work and my now 4 year old granddaughter walked up and showed me a feather she found in the yard. Without a word she reached up and stuck it in my ribbon right where it belonged. Now that feather has a memory attached to it and at least as far as my work hat is concerned, I am now a feather guy.

That is one beautiful hat!Almost always I remove any feathers from my hats when I buy them. But my Resistol Kitten Finish early-Sixties fedora came with a feather that blended nicely with the reddish brown of the felt, and so I've left it in place:

Nice looking.
Cane Rod Maker please post the guys info for those of us who do like feathers in some hatsI see a young man on Instagram who makes really nice feather sets. Would you like his info.?
Reminds me of the Emily Dickinson quote "Hope is the thing with feathers" which Woody Allen referenced in the title of his book "Without Feathers".
Wasn't her character, in Rio Bravo called "Feathers," due to her fondness of wearing a feather boa?
Thanks Karl. I think I'll use the Red Tail Hawk shoulder feather in this CP plus maybe my Sand colored Akubra Cattleman. I think I'll try the Great Horned Owl tail feather on my gray Ritch Rand next time I get it out of the box.^ both (-:
