Unique Crown Shapes

[Mickey Q]

I thought it would be cool to have a thread of unique crown shapes that aren’t the ones constantly used over and over.

Also, seems like through the years of shaping and wearing hats I’ve actually came full circle and like just plain open crowns without creases quite a bit and used to have no love for them haha.

Any pics of different variations of open crown or just signature one of a kind crown shapes in general would be cool to see in a thread.

I am the boring one...preferring the simple centre dent and two modest side pinches. I do love the fancy western hats bashes....lately have been noticing the bash that resembles the Saguaro cactus.

We have threads dedicated to diamond and teardrop crown shapes, but the this thread seems to cover the same ground:

Found this hatmaker, Blade Hats, on instagram. Not sure these are the look for me, but I really appreciate the creativity of them, and I figure they definitely fit the criteria of this thread.

Here's one I do own. Horseshoe crease western crown.

Here is one. It started as a basic cattleman crease Stetson. When I knocked it out to open crown this is the only shape that seems natural for it. Everything else I tried seemed forced. Not the normal but it works.

Looks good to me.

Straightforward and classical.
