What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Short Balding Guy]

Good morning loungers. Excellent captures of your hats being worn the past couple days.

This cool morning, 48'F at 8:00am, found me in a Filson wool jacket and a Cordova Cap.

I had to run over to our local coffee roaster to pick-up fresh roasted coffee and wore my Champs lightweight. The blue/gray felt color makes it easy to wear.

I spent some time this morning cleaning straw hats and boxing/packing them up tip next spring.

Best, Eric -

Thank you moon! That means a lot coming from you guys!
I''ve learned quite a bit in my short time here.
I no longer stick to my crown blocks as much as I used to.

Oh boy do I have hats!
I bought enough stuff to keep me busy for a while now.

I agree, I'm not even near as good as you guys are.
But practice makes perfect, right?

Sunday is busy. Early afternoon, to an early lunch, I wore a black/cream Cordova Cap.

Shortly ago I donned a vtg.Stetson in blue/gray felt for the dreaded shopping errands. I can not wait to sit, kick back and lift my feet up.

Best, Eric -

Eric, I am always envious of your variety of lids. Great to see the pics on this Sunday morning.

 

[g.durand]

Esther--looks like you're going to be having fun. Congrats on getting all those goodies.

moon--thanks for the props. You're a quick study so you got into the flow here without needing much help.

Panandora, Bolero, Bob, Eric (wow, what a hat day for you!)--everyone is looking good on this Sunday.

One of the Borsalino thin-ribbons for me today.

Nice hat.

Let me say just:

Esther, Panadora, Eric, Bob, Bolero, Michael, wonderful collection of hats everyone. You all look great.

Did some reblocking and creasing on my new Stagecoach Turkey Creek. The crown looked like a Pyramid when I first got it. I had the perfect Cattleman crease in it but the crown is so tall that it didn't look right. I needed a lower open crown for that one. This Stagecoach boasts a 6 1/2 tall open crown. I was able to straighten up the sides of the crown a bit and crease it with a Center Dent....I also put a little more roll on the front of the brim.

From this:

To this:

Nice reverse taper:

I need a dark brown ribbon no wider than 1/2 an inch.

Thanks for the compliments and comments folks.

I am waiting for the groceries/supplies to be loaded in my auto and reading posts. I read/see almost all posts on this thread. The point of views, situations, hats/caps/brims are all appreciated. Like all of you posting on this thread, I wear my hats. I acquire hats/caps to wear. If I do not wear them I give them to needy heads or release them into the bigger world. I do have many hats/caps, but do not think of them as a collection, rather enjoyable headgear.

Wearing headgear as I post, Eric -
