Long-time lurker, first-time poster.

Today, it's the combined Christmas and birthday present from my lovely wife: a Caribou Stratoliner that feels a little better on my giant head every time I wear it. The file cabinet behind me often serves as my "hat rack," hence the "Don't Touch the Hat" warning taped to the wall. Many of my students like to see just how close to the hat they can get before they're spotted.

Welcome aboard, JW, and that's a fantastic first post, sir! I have the caribou, and love it. Good choice!

I've been running since 6 a.m. Just got back with my Everyman non-Indy hat in Granite from Penman Hat Co. It's got 50/50 rabbit/beaver felt and John fit it to my head shape, then steamed and creased it into a great diamond crown. I love it! This is no flimsy snap brim, the front brim is creased down in front, as it should be, and will never be worn up. :)

John took a quick pic before I left his shop. Now I gotta go get MrsFed for some lunch!

Cheers everyone!

One of my favorite hats of yours, Steve. The color, the cut, the carat! Do you wear most of the hats in your collection, or are some for your collection for display purposes only?
Charlie, Thanks! I actually have a couple other Hückel Weilheim's with a similar look. :) For about a 4 month stretch (~ a year ago) I posted a different hat in this thread but nobody noticed. I will try to remember to start that again.
