What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

#moehawk,
It fits you well, and it has a very nice colour combination of the felt & ribbon!
Best,
Wojtek

I am joining the hat/cap fray today with a Simonds Streamline cap.

This evenings 64'F temps have me in a wool vest and cap. I am loving the cooler temps that today brings.

Best, Eric -

Thanks to all for the likes and comments on my recent postings, especially the Churchill I posted yesterday. Twenty eight likes and several comments may be a personal best. Staying with my western theme of the week, all with the cattleman crease, I'm wearing a Resistol "Beaver 25." Trying to get these recent acquisitions used to my head. Even the t-shirt is sporting a cattleman crease. Little bit of rain as well.

Nice Resistol Cuz! You wear the cattleman crease well, especially the more dressy, shorter brimmed ones.

Thanks, Wojtek!
I dyed the ribbon myself, the color is called Koala.

Guys, you look great (or sometimes greyT, as it comes to colour in these hats!

Since it is raining and windy down here in Poland today, I put my Borso hellgrau from Breiter Hut on. In theory it should be light grey, but it has blue and green tints in its greyness. Good for blue suits.
Best,
Wojtek

Wonderful color!

Today is the Resistol Hombu (too small to make the grade to homburg).

It keeps the sun off the head, but doesn't cast much shade for the eyes.

Maybe next week I'll recast it as a porkpie.

Great rescue job Moe.

Love that cap Eric. I could see it winning a hat/cap matchup

And for some reason I'm starting to think I need something in the way of a cattleman. Though I haven't had cattle since my teens.

Thanks, Cuz. You got me to thinking so I pulled the tape measure out. The Cavanagh 100 from two days ago goes about 2 7/8", the Churchill Longview is 2 1/4" and today's Resistol is right between 2 5/8" - 2 3/4". Quite a range in these OR styled hats. The only true OR I have is probably a 50's 3X, comes in at 2 7/8". I am a fan. Thanks for the likes and comments, folks.

Welcome to the Lounge, Wojtek!! Glad to see another wonderful hat on this thread!

STUNNER of a cap, Eric. It's got all the right lines.

Thanks Michael!

Started with a big hat...

Ended with a smaller hat. No I didn't trim the brim nor shrunk it and the color is different.
I like Nutria felt and would be happier if this had a wiiiiiiider brim.

Darn what a nice hat, if it is 7 1/2 and you decide it does not look good on you, I can adopt it with lots of love

Also WELL DONE, Robert!! Fabulous look, and do I see at least two other fedoras in the crowd? And your blue/white puppies are perfect, Pal!!!

Thank you, your compliments, as ever, are generous to a fault. I didn't clarify that legend about St Swithin. If it rains on his feast day, so the tale goes, it will rain for 40 days and 40 nights. There's actually some science to the St Swithin story. The jet stream tends to move up and down the northern part of the globe quite regularly. If, during the summer months, it's in a higher position we get far less rain than when it's lower. At it's lowest, it brings continual rain off the Atlantic and saturates Europe. And as the first landfall is Ireland, they get the worst of it. Maybe that's why it's known as The Emerald Isle. All that rain water creates lush vegetation. But as today is St Swithin's, I do hope that the sun has got his hat on and he's coming out to play.
