What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Bob Roberts]

Brisk day here in NE Ohio and decided to walk to the coffee shop. Broke out my Stetson Temple. Tried wearing it with the brim up. Up or down - which do you prefer?

DOWN!

DANG! Delightful delivery, Dude! And a great Dalton!!!

Some curveballs from life lately... less time to post, but peeking in daily. Back to my original fedora, the Lee private label from Nate's Men's Shop. NOS in 1971, from circa 1948...

Hey everyone!
Thanks for all the likes and comments, folks!
Today, this hairy green thing from Lock & Co. Hatters that arrived Friday. Impulse buy late at night. Posted more pics in New Hats on Friday, but changed tge band a little since then.
I liked te felt band, but not the buckle and belt loops, so I removed them, and just did a plain felt band. I actually liked the look with the feather (I like it on my Tribble too) but the feather was pretty ratty looking so I ditched it. It was a lot stiffer, so it got an alcohol bath and after it dried a lot of hand working to make it more pliable. Still stiffer than I'd like, but it takes a pinch much better now.

With buckle and loops gone, weight is down to 86 grams, but still feels as warm as it looks.
Have a great day, everybody!

After errands, I am back home getting ready for football with an old Christys deerstalker. It is my go-to hat for the public embarrassment of my 14 year old son. I will have to come up with an excuse to take him out somewhere later. View attachment 39550

Love the deerstalker! That would have my children mortified. May have to pick one up for that very reason

A-1,
Congratulations on the record and nice cover photo. I particularly like the title: are you aware of the slang meaning of the word "shiner?" I'm not sure about other English-speaking countries, but here it refers to a "black" eye: what you can wind up with after a fight. A little ambiguity is always a good thing in a title.

Thanks! If you are in the area, we should grab a brew.

Used to be; moved to Savannah in June following a fun career. If ever in the area let me know and I will do the same.

Not to beat a dead hat... of course you obviously should wear 'em how you like 'em. But since you asked... I often enjoy wearing brims up and I don't have a Temple but like my Feds, it has a dimensional brim and I've tried those snapped up and feel the dimensional brim snapped up, looks awkward and unbalanced. The proportions of the dimensional brim (snapped up) detract from the hats pleasing overall conformation.
