What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Atomic Glee]

Hey AtomicGlee,

Nice Campdraft alright. There's noooo way I could be anything other than a mad collector of quantity regarding hats because it's my nature and I wear a different hat all the time (need to get in the swing of posting pix of that daily on this thread) but I have so much respect and awe for someone who "wears pretty much the same hat every day" as you do. Honestly. There's a part of me that really wishes I could do that - it's the coolest.

Why, thanks! It's not that I don't have my own small collection - I also have two Federations, not to mention a couple of Panamas (though I have fit problems with the soft straws) and a boater - but for whatever reason, the Campdraft finds its way to my head 99% of the time.

Nice! :eusa_clap Is it the same color as the Faulkner, looks like it on my screen?

 

[AlanC]

Good eye. That hadn't occured to me. It's darker, a true tan, but the Faulkner is 'Mojave', which is the same color family. The goal of the Faulkner was to emulate a Montecristi as much as possible so I wanted to go very light but in the tan family rather than gray. The flash washed out the Churchill. Maybe I can take a side by side with good light tomorrow (although I have NCAA basketball to watch).

 

[indycop]

Man you are going to have to a ton of hats to bring to Memphis!lol

 

[indycop]

What the heck! since I am posting it everywhere else.....
Also a question, Should I axe the goatee and moustache for an interview I have next week or is it not to bad?

This ought to go good with Dee's green Stetson!

Thanks, gents.

That Churchill was one of my first hat purchases (off ebay) and I was really excited about it. But when it arrived it was cowboy hat stiff in a cattleman's bash, brim up. Anyway, I couldn't really dry bash it and I was too unsure to do much else so I stuck it back in its box and left it in the closet. While I was doing some crease work on my Borsalino today I finally decided I wasn't going to kill the Churchill by spritzing it wet, so I wet down the front (distilled water), left the center crease, put in front dents and got the brim to snap. That's the result. It's a far cry from the soft felt on my Art-lite, but it looks good (I think). It's now officially in service. I don't think anyone ever wore it before me.

That looks fantastic.

My Silver Belly Campdraft was keeping me dry today.
