What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Short Balding Guy]

Meets this past weekend and travel later today to a training camp make time precious. Not so precious that there is not time to head out for coffee. Rainy, dreary start to the day. Sun should appear later. The happy dancer painted on the dance room viewing window is appropriate for mood change. I just need to work on a smile in my hat pics.

Best, Eric -


(Hatted in my VS Strat-esque dove w/charcoal ribbon fedora. Gray Pendleton boardshirt for the cool damp weather. )

Stetson 13 Star

Nice, Steve. I went with an old black hat today too.

This is my oldest Stetson. Tomorrow I'll vote for the 11th time in a presidential election.
I figure this hat could have filled out a ballot for Woodrow Wilson.
Pin is from a funky shop in Chicago...not original to the hat.

I've missed too many opportunities to comment the past several days, but you all never let down! I still really dig that Carmack Whiskey, Sam, and Javier-- nice hats, and congrats to your sister on overcoming at least some of life's obstacles to get that degree!

I've been wearing hats with dedication, but will only post today's, a long-ish haired green heather Borsalino with a 2 1/4" felted edge. The recent posts in "green machine" inspired me.

Here's a detail of the felt if you're interested:

Historyteach-- you were wearing a new Falcon Park, yes? Did you put pics in the FP thread?

 

[mayserwegener]

Alan, Thanks! Your Stetson 13 Star looks fantastic / classic. I like seeing the old (plus black) ones!

Jared, Really sharp Resistol Milan! It looks especially great with the Hollywood snap!

Jeff, Really beautiful felt on your Borsalino! Cav edge? Also wears great (custom fit)!

 

[randooch]

Nice ones, guys!

Alan, the S-13 looks picture-perfect with that jacket.

Jared, you're really enjoying a spell of fine wx there! I dig the tee, too.

Jeff, the heather green felt on that one really works for your complexion. Wear it more!

Steve, that's the best wool lid I think I've ever seen.

Randall, Thanks! I have 3 or 4 of these old wool Bowlers. They are very light weight and well made. The one problem is they are lint collectors.

I like your style, you seem to be able to pull off a look that the average man couldn't

 

[RBH]

Very nice Allan, and the pin adds a cool touch!

Let me add... great hats all a round today Gents!!!!

Bowlerman, the brim width on that one really suits you well. I used to think if a brim wasnt really wide it did not look right. I think the full crown gives it that great look.
While I am not a huge fan of the really stingy brims, ones such as yours really looks nice.

Thank you!

 

[splintercellsz]

Very nice Bowler! That is awesome! I think I found a pic to persuade those around me that Bowlers DO look good!
