What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[alanfgag]

A marvelous Mallory made with mixed materials which came to me from my friend Joshbru.

The crown as creased rises 5", somewhat exaggerated in appearance (along with the cragginess of my face) by the iPhone and new iOS7.

"Dinerman down under"?

Thanks guys. I like your style, casechopper.

It's an Akubra Capricorn, Andy. Cheers man.

One of our esteemed long time members... can't find the right picture, but I saw a resemblance.

Welcome to the Fedora Lounge, mate!

LOL I thought you were probably talking about another member.

Thanks, Alan. Good to be here.

Edit: Oh, yeah, and nice hat!

 

[Chepstow]

Alan, a terrific hat. Great that he has a new and good home!

Good afternoon Gents! Gotta make it short and sweet. The wife is yelling for me....excuse me, BRB..."For Cryin' Out Loud! Can you wait a sec! Geez!"...Okay. I'm back guys. Anyway, you guys never disappoint! I love the collection of lids today! +10 Guys!

For me on this sunny nice afternoon from Central Ohio I'm wearing my tight fitting Stetson 3X Open Road. No sense in letting it sit in the hat box. Thought I'd give it some air today!....

Alan, glad to see it being worn! It's one of the nicer hats I ever found. Bought that in 2009 along with 2 other "heather" felt hats. Almost passed them up because they were 7's. But I sensed they were something special. That hat is still my favorite green color felt.

Thanks for your keen eyes, B.

For those who might notice the odd line at the top of the ribbon, that is a basting stitch, still in place to (I believe) protect the ribbon in transit.

Alan, indeed that is a stunning example, not to mention a great shade of green.

T Jones, the 3x looks perfect on you, great crease too. I'd never guess it was too small from the photo.

Got out of the house a few brief moments today, in my tumwater silver belly, but changing for the rain to my new akubra campdraft, as my son and I embark on his very first cub scouting event: the neighborhood popcorn sale!

Neither photo is from today.

Picked up a great grey Borsalino from bond. It's a thing of beauty, and it's become my daily hat; here I'm wearing it a bit back on my head.

Cheers,
A

We shall need new photos!!!!

Thanks for the comments on the campdraft. It’s a great all around hat. Better with the new ribbon.

Wow!! Can you give some specifics about that lid? I might have to order one and trim it up like this!!

This one’s just an ordinary 58 glen gray campdraft with the brim trimmed to 2 1/8” and a ribbon just a bit under 1 and 5/8.” I have reblocked it on a 23” straight side dome “Hatshaper” I have, and used an ordinary hat stretcher to take it to long oval. It’s also been rolled up and beat on a lot to break it in.

Steve, Manfred said it best-- a real flagship in your collection! Wow.
Mike-- love the new Panama, and the Lock & Co. is fantastic!
BJ-- excellent conversion, a real treasure there!
David-- The Penman is outstanding, and today's Whippet just glows! Awesome.
Andy-- Nice dimensions and ribbon on that Champ!
Perry-- The Borso looks amazing, something on the finer, classier side of an OR.
Sam-- now here is another one of your hats that I would really covet. Exudes attitude and class all in one!

Enjoy the popcorn Jeff
