What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[moehawk]

Joao, those long hairs are sweet. I don't think I've seen them before. Are they new?

 

[Alive'n'Amplified]

Lots of great straws today, fellas.

Joao, always a great selection. I appreciate how you wear different hats throughout the day! :thumb:

Eric, did you time travel and buy that Marathon from the department store? Sheesh, that thing sparkles! :yo:

Downtown in my Westbound'n'Down today...

AnA, that is a sweet hat. Looks great on you. Your brim shaping works great on you.

I have them for a year I think. They don't come out of the box very much.
The Resistol I believe it's from the 80's. Resistol told me they still do them but their are not produced every year.
The Stetson I don't know how old can it be but since it have the last drop liner it's also 20 or 30 years old.
Also have a long hair Thoroughbred but moths got it to it so it's more of a beater than those too.

Joao, always a great selection. I appreciate how you wear different hats throughout the day! :thumb:

I change them during lunch time. Also weather is become more and more hot so wear one hat in the morning, clean the sweatband and change for another hat.
I could wear one of my shantung hats but it's the same.

Back in D.C. Here I am with the Mrs. last night at Wise Guys Pizza. Wearing a Dobbs Milan straw porkpie, trying to stay cool in the heat.

Enjoying my Falcon Park this morning... while it's still "cool" out.

Great pic!

Agreed, Knotten! Love the avatar photo too. There's a joke in there about how good you look with your daughter, but we won't go there.

Well, my first CD got here - Silverbelly - yesterday. Didn't get to crease it until this AM. Nothing special, and I'm sure I'll work on it as it settles onto my head.



It is, as advertised, big. Bigger than my other Akubra, this one will fall off my head if I'm not too careful. Were it not for this forum, I'd be having a minor meltdown over this; however, I'm confident that, after a few wearings, it's going to fit great. This is my first and only Silverbelly, as well. I've been looking to get some lighter colored hats on my head and this fills the bill.

Java-that Falcon Park is exquisite
Fruno-expertly done on the CD crease. I've changed mine a couple of times, they're tough they can take it!

Topper day...

Arno Weiske opera hat

Great looking CD, Fruno. Silverbelly looks good on you.

I keep thinking: cattleman crease, but I'm too timid. I'm afraid I'll look too western or something.

Agree 100%. Vintage or new?

Alan,

Perfect, but nothing less is expected from you. I'm amazed not only by your collection, but how well each one looks on you.

You fellows continue the excellent hat parade. Well done folks.

This evening the temps have dipped to nearly 65'F with a moderate breeze. Ahhhh. A Pendleton Board Shirt and a vtg. Penny's Marathon (minty (green) felt and condition) are my attire enjoying the lake. The dogs are anxious for a swim and I have a pair of board shorts on ready to participate. I will not swim with a hat or share swimming pics.

Best, Eric -

Well done Eric, I like not only your selections, but the background info that describes your choice of hat each day.

I think your crease is perfect ... that is my kind of bash right there... love it

... and it will definitely tighten up a bit... sweat in it a little ... wear it all day if you can ...you will feel it sort of start to shape to your head

on both my CD they would conform ... then I would put it away for a day or so and put it back on and it would have to conform again ... takes a few wears to get to know your head

looks great on you ... really really nice

Congrats to you, FrunoB! Really an excellent profile for you, Perfect proportions!!

As I've been in and out of the loop over the last few days, it's both a joy and frustrating to try to keep the pace with you boys.

Early this morning we were out with my French made black beauty. Dating this one has been difficult, as the range of estimates goes from the early thirties to the late fifties. Whatever, it's one of only two black hats I own...
