Vintage Silhouettes Custom Hats - Official Affiliate Thread

Acting respectable in public, or most of us were. This is the day I got . . busted . . for dog whispering.

Dang! This is like seeing a Family Gathering picture...the "Fedora Gang" Haha! Nothing disrespectful meant, either. We actually envy seeing Loungers getting to meet like that! It should take place so much more often. I see one thing missing on those tables...or do my glasses need fixing...no "Tennessee Sipping Liquid"!!??!!

There was plenty of that LMM , but we must maintain "plausible deniability" . What happens in Tn, stays in Tn.

Wasn't sure if I should put this here or in the Akubra Overload thread so I decided to put it in both!

This was an Akubra Down Under but Art overhauled it and I added a custom hatband made by an Etsy seller. Inspired by Ben Wade's hat from 3:10 to Yuma.

That's a real beauty. Love the way the pattern of the hatband matches the felt.

A few weeks ago I was interviewed for a local TV station and sometime last week it aired. When a customer came in telling me about it I looked top to bottom & couldn't find it. Finally I talked to the reporter and lo & behold it was place on the VS Custom Crafted Hats facebook page ( I barely knew I had one) and here is the link.
Let me know what you think?

When I first saw it my first impression was "when did I get so old?" Damn, I didn't used to look like that!!

Me too, Art! Me too! Since the maniacs here on the FL shamed me into stop dying my chin whiskers, it's like I've aged 15 years in a few weeks. I look in the mirror every morning and wonder where that young pup went... and I'm a couple decades behind you, Sir!
