Charlie - lovely moss number

David - nice looking Penman. Interesting brim stitching

Joao - the band works well

John - a very smart pair.

Renault - I'm not familiar with the bushman, but it looks good.

Rassman - nice thin ribbon

Another bargain bin rescue from Goodwill, I'm afraid -- a mass-produced cheapie trilby. Made to look like linen but it's actually cotton. Black, high crown, stingy brim. Thinking of offering it to my daughter, another hat person. Like its look, though. And loved the price.

Received a hat Friday from the Village Hat Company but had to send it back, too large even though I am a 7 3/8 (long oval). Ordered a medium for its replacement. Looks like James Spader could wear it on the Blacklist. Chocolate brown to match a suede jacket I own. Hope to get it back soon.

gear-guy, Richard (the Christys cap is still a winner), Mystic, Thanks guys. I really appreciate the feedback on my Black Resistol conversion.

Here's another conversion I'm working on. I took this 3X Open Road apart and reblocked it with my handy paint can and bubble wrap. I'll be putting a new sweat and a contrasting mid-ribbon on it. I also pounced it to where it's really nice and soft. This is going to be one of my favorites when it's finished...Here it is with a dry crease, center dent...I'm still not sure what kind of crease I'll go with yet.

Sorry about that buddy. It wasn't intentional....I like your Dobbs West btw.

Why remember how it was. You cannot enjoy it again with that wide brim since you can't put it back.
This Dobbs West looks like a Resistol Stagecoach rebranded. Was Dobbs bought by Resistol (or hat co)? Must google on this.

My everyday hat. Akubra bushman. Tried to crease it like 1889 Campaign hat. Like the weight, material, and ribbon edged brim. Wear felt year round! Never without a hat! One of my pups happened to rip out the liner one morning when I laid it down where I shouldn't have! LOL!

Is that a Winchester? Akubra have nice felts.

Joao, That hat is you

Thanks. With it had more brim.

Joao - the band works well

Yes it does. Thank you again for it since this hat had no hatband.

Pendleton straw today but could have gone felt as the temp. was starting to drop.

We took another round trip to central Ohio to bring our freshman back home. She returned a sophomore. :eeek:

Wow man. Trippy. :eusa_clap

Alan, she looks a tiny bit smarter already. Must be a good school. Pardon the sophomoric humor.

Congrats to the new Sophomore!! :eusa_clap

Garrett - perfect hat for taking a trip

Terry - impressive re-block with a paintcan.

Gear-guy - nice straw and the spring woods make a great background.

Sam - I think Garrets hat needs that Pug that Carmack always makes me envious.

Alan - great photo, your pride shines out.

Alan - you have much to be proud of.

This Thursday Nancy and I head to Southeast Ohio for Hannah's induction into Phi Beta Kappa. It's an honor society for the arts and sciences which is very difficult for seniors to be admitted into. Hannah was asked to join as a junior (an uncommon occurrence as a junior). We are extremely proud of the kid. Even more important, she's a good person. And it's always nice to see the next generation growing up to be a good person - and perhaps someone who will change the world for the better.
