Grey Stetson Sovereign with a stingy mod brim.

Well, the last few days have been fun. However, I believe that with this final crease, the Campdraft's Different-Day-Different-Bash marathon is over. I was deep in concentration at the moment, so forgive the lack of a smile :D :

Great hats all around, and Big E, that stingy brim goes well with that jacket. :eusa_clap

I enjoyed your hat’s photo journey Neophyte. Having fun with hats is what it's all about. Plus the versatility of the Campdraft is impressive. Caused me to suggest to some folks that it would be very nice if they were to order me a Silverbelly Campdraft as a Christmas gift. Of course I’d have to put on a wider ribbon and probably cut down the brim a bit if they follow through.

Very spiffy avatar Card of yours I must say.

Thanks Gumbo. I had far too much time on my hands that day.

Had no place to go today, but I still wore my Nostalgia around anyway so I’ll post a photo. It was always nice to the touch, but I decided I needed to break it more, so every so often I’ve been snapping and rolling up the brim, throwing it across the room to the coat hook (sometimes even making it), and just giving it a good crushing now and then. Just about done for the night, but I’m pleased with the results so far, so I think I’ll stop assaulting it. I had been treating it far too delicately for my tastes. Now I feel more comfortable with it.

Sad to say I thought I’d try the same thing with one of my cheaper Biltmores, which was as hard as cardboard, earlier in the day. It did not fare as well, and the ribbon came undone. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

What color is that?

Took the snow train to Leavenworth Washington today. Saw more fedoras and fedoraish hats than I have ever seen outside of a Fedora Lounge event.

Neo, this is fairly unique - I can't say I've previously seen a Hollywood Up brim. Seen them down, never up...I like your style.

Thanks, Chinaski :). It's kind of a Buffalo Bill (Hollywood version) affectation, but the CD doesn't have the brim for it, so this is the result lol.

Thanks, B.J. :). Don't let GTDean hear about you plans for that CD, though lol. That Nostalgia looks great! You did a good job beating it into submission :eusa_clap.

Bart, the VS looks great, and the cold surroundings really make the color stand out :). Great pics, too.
