What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Miamibruno]

Charlie, I need to get me one of those blowers. My back is SORE.

TJones - just want you to know I bought a Resistol Stagecoach for a conversion. You are convincing.

David, hatophile - Great Strats. Hatolphile, how different is the mink over regular fur felt? I'm curious.

Today I'm going with my just acquired 30s-40s Marathon.

Miami and Jeff,

The Mink is a nice dark cocoa color, the felt is soft and pliable. It's still a regular fur felt, just the color is called mink Miami. It's one of the nicest modern hats I've handled (other than Art's creations.)

Miamibruno, that Marathon is fantastic!

Hatto can weigh in of course, but I was under the impression that "mink" was a trademarked color, not the material (unless you're Art Fawcett!). Beaver Brand used to offer that as a color, too.

Right on both counts, Jeff!

And that is a serious icicle.

[Johnny J]

Nice one Alan!

 

[hatsRme]

Fantastic look, again, Alan.

Perry's right, Sam... the sand and the snow really work together. Super lid!

That new Mink Strat is a beautiful deep, rich looking color, Perry.

MAN!! What Marvelously Magnificent Marathon, Miami!! MMMmmmmmm.

 

[alanfgag]

Charlie, Johnny, thank you.

 

[hatophile]

Nice one Alan!

Affirmative!

bowlerman:

T Jones, what's the hat in your shoveling shot? I really like it.

Thanks buddy. It's a Western hat with a "Sherwood Saddlery" logo on the liner and on the sweat. I can't find any info on it through a web search. It says on the sweat "Genuine fur felt", "Custom made"...My guess is that's it's a store logo where the hat was purchased. Other than that I don't know who the maker was. The felt is really dense and stubborn to work with. It's a real nice hat though.

Excellent! I think you're going to be real pleased with the results you get. The felt quality of the Resistol Stagecoach is substantial....beautiful Marathon btw.

 

[Miamibruno]

Casechopper - Nice CRM and love that little bit of red in the ribbon.

Alan - Sooooo you. Perfect ensemble as usual.

Charlie - absolutely alliterative announcement of appreciation.

TJones - won't get to it till I find a decent rounding jack. Don't want to think what would happen if I used scissors.

Loved so much the 7XCB that I tried to make a new ID card with it but they don't let me...

 

[ManofKent]

David - lovely Strat to start the day.

Charlie - that's a nice thrift store find!

Perry - great Sweater and new hat

Miami - lovely Marathon

Sam - great looking CRM

Alan - lovely little black number

Mike - very nice too.

Joao - How do they expect to recognize you without a western?

 

[dh66]

Agree with Richard on all points.
Mike I like the cool fuzzy collar on your coat a lot too.
