Big Man said:Today (and most days) it's a grey Jaxon "Bogart". I've had this hat for a couple years now and have used it as a regular "business day" hat. It's seen all kinds of weather and still (I think) remains nice looking. The hat wears well, and is a nice thick felt that has a soft feel. I'm very pleased with this hat.

Looking good, by the way. I've got a grey one, and I think it's my current favorite.
Sorry, hadn't finished my third double espresso yet.DOUGLAS said:Looking kinda mean there Mr.lucky. This hat looks like the one from Last Man Standing
Dinerman said:Nope- that's just the way it is. It's got one heck of a memory, too. Bash it any other way, and it'll pop right back into this shape.

It's a GREAT hat - softer than Elvis' a--! But beat to a nubbins. Can't wear it among 'spectable folk!

exact shape? As if it was blocked that way? Even though it wasn't. Well, well, well. The mystery deepens. For me, anyway.

It's like it was steamed and punched in by hand. The centerdent portion has the same haphazard ripples to it. The felt is pretty thick and heavy on this one, not paper thin like you'd think. You can pop it out, and push it back in, and all the ripples and odd dents will be in the exact same place.deanglen said:You mean that haphazard, paperlike looking dent will hold that shape" That

Cortados? Do tell!DOUGLAS said:A man after my own heart. I do Cortados myself.
I know! If I could just find two or three more like it...deanglen said:Too bad! That hat has character.

Ah! Cafe con leche, as they say in Miami! I got it! Love 'em too!DOUGLAS said:Basically espresso with steamed milk served in a short cup. While I was in Spain I started drinking them.
