What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[moehawk]

Hey Fruno! I went and actually used the tools that the site provides and found that it was last March that I posted pics of my Homburg attempt.

Poor light in the pic, but it doesn't hide the fact that I couldn't get the brim curl to look right.

Sun on the hills early in the morning, then suddendly clouds arrived.

Meer (name of the hat shop in Strasbourg) clear grey, made in France probably in the 40' maybe early

It is a mixed felt, mostly in wool. Raw brim and thin black ribbon

Without linen, with an almost dry sweatband

Very confortable

Thanks for the likes on the homburg marked Carlton of Monday.
As always this thread is an inspiration.
Thanks loungers and compliments for your mixed and marvellous hats

There's a sartorial solution to your problem - dress for the temperature, don't burn more fuel!
My thermostat is set to 18C, and I wear a pullover or jacket (occasionally both) indoors.

I take it that's a no to my fuel bills, ok. Seen here taking Hal's advice

If I had 100 ties I'd be having a garage sale, or making a gift to my local thrift store!

You don't have a 100 ties to wear them. Obviously, you've never been 'tied' to the bedstead.

@GHT

"Correct", I would say.

Second day with my only 50's vintage Stetson after a little steam and crown rework.

GHT, I prefer those fuzzy pink handcuffs.

Going with a Knox Premier Fifth Ave for a (hopefully) wonderful Wednesday.

Have a great day, everyone.

Hey everyone!
Looking sharp today, all.
Thank you for the likes and nice comments.
Last summer, I found a thrashed Resistol 4XB Western at the flea market. I cleaned it up, trimmed it down and bound the brim, but that was in the days before I made my block, rounding jack or owned a sewing machine. I also tried to make it into a homburg. Needless to say, I wasn't overly thrilled with the results, so it sat unworn for months.
Last night, all my favorite shows were reruns, nothing on the DVR, so I busted out the poor old thing and reworked it into something I'm a little more likely to wear.

Crown is 5" as creased, 6" open. Brim is 2 1/4". My best brim binding so far. Thanks again tonyb for starting that brim binding how-to thread (and Art for adding to it!).
Have a great day!

Pretty hat and band!'

I just saw this post - must've missed it from last night. That actually doesn't look half bad. some kettle curl irons probably would have given better results. All-in-all, however, you have a great hat there!

That's a nice looking hat, Harv. There's a size 7 up on OFAS.

I think that's the first we've seen of the interior of one of Esther's hats. That looks nice!

Aw thx! It's obviously not perfect yet.
I decided to surprise Sergej with a leather sweat and lining.
It's not something that is done in women's millinery but decided to give it a go.

This is the first one I ever did, so I'm sure they will get better with more practise.
Nr. 2 is already going in easier.

Sergej will get a better liner once they arrive.
