What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[hatophile]

Al, thank for your nice comments. Those brims can be up to 4 3/4" wide and remain flat.

Mike, thank you. I agree, the huaso's hat is beautiful, particularly the straw hats.

Interesting the Argentine Gaucho's hats tend to be more felt and a smaller brimmed.

Al, what an incredible experience for all. The actors and the parents.

hatophile, Argentina is such large country that there are about four different "typical" hats worn. In the northern areas the hats are similar to the huaso's felt hat.


I have been told that this is from the southern area, but north of the pampas.


This one is I believe from the pampas region.

Those are wonderful, Al! Absolutely professional shots. The kids and their families must really appreciate you putting that disc, etc., together for them. Congrats again to Ryan and yourself.



I've seen those South American hats before [online], and believe they had regional names as well, "Sureño and Norteño." I've gathered that they have always been, traditionally, authentically, made from wool. They are very cool.

Out dog walking in the warm March weather. We set records yesterday with high temps and will have high temps of 60's today. Red Baracuta and 50's Stetson Stratoliner steed me well in the warmer temps.

Best, Eric -

Thanks for letting us experience this with you, Al. Great, great shots.

 

[Short Balding Guy]

Al; Thanks for sharing your family’s rich experience. By all visuals the performances must have been a success. Congrats to the parent!

BR; Quite the pics sir. You winter in an area that is rich in ancient history and traditions. The contrasts between your summer digs and the winter digs must peak your curiosities.

Best, Eric -

Robert, how many gallons do you suppose that one is? Looks remarkable on you.

Mike, that brim width suits you, along with several others, you lucky man.

Eric, I want one like yours! Still trolling for a Strat in 7 1/2 . . .

I went to Oaklawn at Hot springs over the weekend for my birthday.
Here is a shot of me with my 2 kids.

While Oaklawn is known for its cornbeef sandwichs, I had a plate of these!
Man they were good!!!

Bringing the horses in before the race...

Then we watched a little of this....

The track has these all over, this is one of my favorites.

I had a great time!

 

[Chepstow]

RBH, looks you have a nice weekend. Great family photo with your kids.
little late, Happy Birthday Rusty

 

[BR Gordon]

Happy birthday. It looks as though you and your kids had a good time.

[randooch]

Great shots, Rusty. Happy Birthday!

+1!

Your daughter is quite beautiful.

Did any of you win some dosh?

 

[TipTop]

Sold in Managua, Nicaragua

What a hoot (Gibzonza)! I'd really like to see a shot of you with that in the perspective of a prime lens. The 'wide' angle is really pulling on that brim. And, truth be known, I'd like to own one of those someday.

Optimo day again

Stetson Too!
