That's one great looking hat!

Great looking hats, Josh and Alan. Quite fine.

Thanks so much! I used a Knox sweatband out of a 7 3/8 donor Knox panama. I had to cut the sweatband down. It wasn't in the best shape, but I wanted to use original parts on this one verses a new replacement sweatband. It gives the hat a more "used" look. Its very comfortable.

David - great Tumwater - lovely ribbon work.

Andy - nice set of tweeds there.

Perry - That's a fine looking Knox.

Sam - great hat and I have vest envy.

Hatguy - I like the way the band colour matches your complexion ;)

Josh - you've done a good job on that re-size.

Alan - I think that's a lace rather than a ribbon :) Great colour and crease - the lighting shows it off nicely.

Thanks for comments on yesterday's cap. Today was the first outing for the Lembert that Mafred kindly directed me to:

First year ever those two have been on the same day. I think I might try a new Thanksgiving tradition......Turkey with Latke stuffing. Sounds good to me. ;)


This is not the first, nor the last time this will happen (last time was about 125 years back, in the late 19th century). We likely wouldn't remember the last time, or be ready (or alive) for the next time, unless things really change around here...

But I like the latke stuffing idea, Josh.

Great hat, look today Richard!

I had no idea Thanksgiving and Hanukkah have crossed paths before. I read a yahoo article just recently that said it had not, but then again, can't believe everything on the internet. LOL.

That would be quite rich! I'd say go with the sweet potato latkes. Easier all around, plus you can still have sour cream with them since they're not fleischig. :)

Alan, Perry, Thanks!

Alan, Beautiful Stetson Clear Nutria! The sun really shows off the fantastic finish / color!

Josh, Great reworking of the Mid 50's Knox 15! You hit the time period spot on!

Richard, Super to see the Lembert in action. Please post in the G.A. thread when you get a chance.

I can't imagine why your workmates would be anything other than pleased by your collection. Your hats look like they grew up there. Always a fitting and natural look.

Thanks, Alan. :)

I guess I meant that my co-workers love my hats, and they compliment me on them often, but it doesn't surprise them that I have a variety of them. They're definitely fans.
