What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[casechopper]

Thanks Perry!
Howardeye: Nice necklace.
HatsRme: I think someone said that the last time I wore it. I get a bit of that 80's big hair rocker vibe from it as well.

Alan, it was absolutely wonderful meeting you, Donna, and of course Lily. As has been said here already, you have so much to be proud of her for and I send along my best wishes for an acceptance letter from here! I hope you all enjoyed A2, even though you weren't in town for very long. Most certainly looking forward to meeting up again soon.

Wonderful 5X CB might I add, the one we were referencing in our conversation I do believe...

And you, Alex! Sharp oxblood with a handsome ribbon design.

This is the hat we discussed... the telescope crown that Lily will not be wearing in Annie Get Your Gun.

Alan, I really like the color & Brim on that Stetson! What a great hat!

Manfred, that cap looks great on you!

Mystic, that Christy's look sharp! Great hat!

Flute, I really like that Oxblood. Very nice!

+1. and the coyote is great too. I' m wearing my Gus again today and loving it,but for the fact that it is suddenly a bit too tight. slight headache may be from the bitter cold or the dry heat pumping through the vents... or the hat? also wearing my coyote hooded parka in the spirit of Sam.

 

[bowlerman]

coach, best wishes to you and Carnelita. a toast in her honor! That is indeed a beautiful photo.

The Joicy again. Fooling around with the various mirrors in my dorm room before heading across the street to get some gyros. Man, I need a haircut.

 

[scooter]

I'm assuming this pic is lying on it's side for you, and I don't know how to fix that without more effort than I have time for. Sorry! This is my brown Whippet as I meet our friend's cat for the first time. His name is Mr. Peeps, and as you can see, he is very prim and proper.

edit: Ok, I couldn't stand it and reoriented the picture.

And his best buddy, Bushy.

WOW !!

I bet that raccoon had quite the reputation with the lady raccoons. :eyebrows: lol

Very unique necklace, Bert. Bet that starts a lot of conversations.

Actually these were quite common years ago where I live being that a lot of people trapped, hunted, and fished. They were sharpened and used as toothpicks, so the old timers told me when I was growing up. I have made many as toothpicks for people over the years. My neighbor is a trapper so I have always had a good local supply of these bones. The one's you can buy on ebay (baculum) are bleached white and are ugly to me. There is a pair f eyeglasses with them on the bay now. The walrus specimens make great knife handles. Mine are aged naturaly and have a nice color to them. As beautiful as they are I would never put one in my mouth. I do not know who all is reading this so I cannot give the correct name for this coon bone toothpick. Also I used to know someone who was making them in sterling silver as hat pins. I am hoping to get some made again. Thanks for the interest.

Hatto - cool Biskup this morning.

Memph - the Buckeroony looks way better with the new ribbon.

Sam - Rod indeed, you look ready to burst into a rendition of Mandolin Wind

Alan - don't see many of those 5XCBs kicking around here.

Manfred - looking good in the cap today

Bert - a friend of ours, a hunt'n fish'n type (complete opposite of me) used to have what he called a "coon pecker knife". I was never sure if it was made from a coon pecker (once I figured out what one was) or was used for skinning them. Looking at your photo, I'm inclined to think it was the former!

Mystic - the Christy's looks good.

Flute - nice to see you revealed. Love the Optimo, your Oxblood is one of my favorites of the examples I've seen here.

Alexander - the Joicy is a cool hat, nice to see you wearing it.

Scooter - nice hat and looks like you have your hands full there!

Oh, thanks guys for the comments on the Borsalino from waaay earlier in the day!

Went out today to run some errands before the big snowstorm hit's tonite and so I broke out the green Dobb's short
brimmed fedora.

All the Best, Fashion Frank

 

[RBH]

Here you go Alex... pretty cool photo!

 

[Mystic]

Nice color contrast on the Whippet. You look as natural wearing that hat as any of the old movie actors.
Like you're just supposed to wear a fedora.

 

[Chepstow]

David, Justin and Jeff, many thanks for the comments. I really appreciate them

Frank, a nice stingy. Always well, hatted!

Scooter, nice photos with the cats! Your brown Whippet looks fantastic.

Alex, sharp Joicy, this hat fascinated!

flute, good looking Oxblood and nice shoes!

Mystic, very good color for the Christy, sharp hat.

 

[splintercellsz]

Yes, it's the 30's Campbell, and 50's overcoat combo... again!!

TAR Tuesday...Biltmore Fawn Open Road Silver Buckle Collection...

 

[RBH]

Tom, I really like that color. I dont get as much wear out of my black one but I try to fit it in.
By the way ... did you leave your Biltmore pin on your hat?
I kinda like the one on mine.

TAR Tuesday. Borsalino Pesca

 

[Neophyte]

Scooter, I like that brown Whippet, looks good. My own cat looks a lot like Mr. Peeps.

Justin, like the hat, love the coat. Cool ensemble altogether.

Fashion, that stingy looks great on you.

Flute that Optimo Oxblood is stunning!

David, that Pesca is so awesome! That's a self-colored felt strip instead of ribbon, right?

Tom, I love the crease you've got in that Biltmore.

And sincerest thanks to all the compliments on the Joicy.

 

[hatophile]

Once again, nice TARS Tom and David. Interesting Borsa you have there.

OR 15 today for single digit temps.

Tom, I really like that color. I dont get as much wear out of my black one but I try to fit it in.

I kinda like the one on mine.

I like the fawn color too = very versatile.
Yep, my pin is still there....like the horseshoe motif too...
