Nice showing today on the lid front, gents. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Bart -- that VS looks great.

DJ-go, Mr. E, Herzen -- hats off to the Dads in Hats movement today... :eusa_clap

Dan -- some nice lids the last few days. :eusa_clap

Lefty -- In my opinion, there are very few people who can actually make a derby look at home on their noggin, and you seem to be one of them. :eusa_clap I think that derby looks great. I'd be curious to know how you feel wearing it.

Cheers,
JtL

Well, please forgive today's double post. Went to the Arts, Beats & Eats Festival in Royal Oak today, where I was on the lookout for Hats on a Stick, and didn't come away empty-handed... Went to take Bodie for a walk this evening, and temps have dropped to the high 50's -- our first real taste of fall weather. So, grabbed my Whiskey VS and Barbour jacket and headed out...

Cheers,
JtL

 

[Mr. Paladin]

Herzen, Mr. E, and djcat-great hats and kids!

Jimmy, the whiskey VS looks great.

Bart, so does your VS!

Today, Champ box bow:

Jimmy, you wear them like we all should. Fantastic lid, as always.

 

[B.J. Hedberg]

Well done sir. Black hats are hve a very distinctive look that I like.

Thank you sir.

 

[Torpedo]

B.J. , as you aptly demostrate, black hats have their place too. Nice outfit, BTW!

Paladin, that's a great ribbon!

Herzen, that fancy ribbon suits the hat very well.

150719541, not a bad beginning for your dear one... she models the hat well.

DGuy, JTL, and the rest, well done!

These are not actually "today" pics, but are new here. I came across them when reorganizing my files.

Some months ago I made a presentation at Laura's school, for a "My dad's (or mom's ) job" activity. I work as a specialist police officer in a Crime Scene Investigation unit. After the presentation, you were given an album where every participant had to fill a couple of pages with his impressions, pics, etc. Laura and me had some photos taken in a Holmes and Watson style (me of course assuming the "sidekick" role... ), as these were well in spirit with the subject, as part of the album material.

The bowler is a modern "Beaver Brand" offering. The deerstalker cap is made by "Countryside Classics".

Regards!

Great photos everyone, Jimmy that VS looks great for 'fall'.

Torp, I always love your shots with Laura.
You remind me of this guy in those photos.

Thanks. As I step out the door, I still get that feeling of unease I got when I first started wearing hats. I want to touch the brim, look down, etc. A minute or two in, and I'm fine.

At the gas station yesterday, a guy missing 4 top teeth and 2 bottom teeth, buying a 40 and a bottle of what looked to be red 'lectra shave, pulled on his imaginary brim and gave me a "howdy pardner. You really rockin' that hat - you look good." After that, everything was all right.

Robin's egg blue Stetson, probably 1950s, by the sweatband leather. crappy iMac pictures. A size too small for me, but I jam it on, it's such a great hat. I've snapped the brim here, but I wear it with the brim unsnapped.
