Two great looking hats Mr. Z.You could be right, and I appreciate the information. But as I mentioned upthread I've done this before and it does appear to be healing as expected, so for now I'll let it. Besides, I'm stubborn and don't like seeing doctors unless I absolutely have to. That might come back to bite me on the backside one of these days, but I'll deal with it when/if the time comes.
Oh, right. To bring this back to the main topic, today was a two-hat day for me. While running errands earlier I wore "Cane's Creations #36", made by Tim Mahovich before he adopted the name Alley Kat Hat Co.. I haven't taken any new photos of this one for a while, so these photos are from 2014:
Rabbit felt in Whiskey with a 1940s-era 1-1/2" Grosgrain ribbon in a color called "Dark Coffee" (according to Tim's vendor). Crown height is 4-3/8" at the pinch and 4" at the rear; brim width is 2-3/4". By far it's my best and most favorite hat; I look forward to the day when I can afford to have Tim make me another hat.
Later in the early evening when I took our dog for his nightly walk I wore my Akubra Campdraft in Taupe Fawn. These photos were taken a couple of weeks ago:
We now return to our regular thread topic, already in progress.
Love the Racine Jim. The ribbon color on this one is a great feature.Happy Groundhog Day.
Stetson Royal DeLuxe Racine.
Sent directly from my mind to yours.
Looking sharp under that Vita-Felt. Always enjoy a hat doing it's job.Ye ol' trusty Premier Vita-Felt for the rainy fry dee.

Nice Fed IV sir. If I were to pull the trigger on an Akubra, this would be the one.View attachment 105164 View attachment 105165 FEDIV in Moonstone this sunny Friday morning.

Sharp looking hat, great crease.
That is a sweet Gun Club. It almost looks green on my monitor this morning. That finish is so nice.Today my Stetson Gun Club. It is a Royal Deluxe really nice grey heathered short hair.......
One of the few I wear with a feather.....seems right for this sporting hat. Wish I had the rifle pin that would originally have come with it......
