everyone looks fantastic today !!

... but I am in love with these two hats ...

A'n'A I LOVE that bash

Thanks, moon! The hat takes a dry crease really easily; it's an amazing hat. I keep it creased with a center dent. The subtle wrinkles at the top of the dents really give it character. :thumb:

I wore my Falcon Park today. Although the brim is my stingiest, it's one of my absolute favorites! Shhh... don't tell Joao, it's only 2 1/4"!

Let's shed some light on the subject...

Thank You Mr. Jones for locating the "thingy" or "do-da". Here's a close up;

I'm here to help buddy.

Today's choice is the polar opposite of g.durand's hat yesterday. This Stetson Sovereign Twenty is the deepest black of all the hats I own, and it's pretty difficult to get a good shot of it.

I need to try an outdoors shot sometime, but it's usually still dark when I arrive at the office in the morning.

Akubra Fedora - a little wet

in my opinion that is the best look I've seen on you

the hat sits a little higher and really looks to wear well

beautiful hat and a really good look for you

Thanks, Moon. It's one of the few 7 1/8 Stetsons that fits me well. Seems like most of the others have a more generous cut and need to be padded a bit.

The brim is about 2 5/8", so it's one of the wider brims I own. Around the house it's come to be known as the 'Big A$$ Stetson' simply because the color (or lack of it) makes it appear even bigger that it really is.

S4C, that black hat looks great on you. Here in Central Pennsylvania, I've given up on the black hat. Unlike hearing "Indiana Jones" with all my other hats, I get the "you look Amish" comments with a black hat.

Today, the Premiere Stratoliner.

It's not the hat, Dave, it's that buggy you were driving.

First fishing/camping trip since Reid was born so off to the cabin. Nothing better to take for the weekend than my Akubras, Tablelands and Stockman

Gives me a chance to reference the worlds shortest thread:

I believe it serves 2 purposes, allow a bit of air flow and also a bit flexibility with fit. My opinion with no factual support.

I'm just amazed that it's still possible! When you think of all the cool things that are kind of lost to time, felted edges, unreeded sweatbands and so on, it's cool this is still an option.

Stetson Sovereign Twenty

That's a beauty, S4C! I think there was a Sovereign thread recently, worth popping a couple of pics of this in there.

Bob Jessee is one of our most creative hatters. He could be quickly coronated King of Corrugation.

I've posted a few pics in both threads, Tommy. I've taken a WAG that it's a 40's hat since it's got the tan keyhole tag with black ink, but would appreciate a more definite age if anyone can pin it down better.

 

[tommyK]

Thanks S4C. Generally when I see a leaf in the logo instead of the stars I think more 50's and later but, it's Stetson and there are numerous exceptions.

LOL. I get the same comment down here in ATL. I don't wear my Dobbs Twenty (black) that often.

Nice hats, guys! :thumb:

Catching up is hard to do! The pace of super lids has been well maintained during the summer vacations.

My attempt at keeping up with the Trevi's... my Stetson Black (dark charcoal, maybe?) Milan!



Mr. Roberts, that Brewster is one sweet lid. Lovin' the mellow color! Hint to (Bob) the new photo-poster: When I take my selfies, I try to be sure they aren't visible, but today we can see the bars of your cage (or cell?) behind you, though...

 

[Bob Roberts]

Mr Hats, thank you. Sweet pug on that Milan! The mug is another story... That Stetson color is called "Buck." The jail is the "Exotic Birds Correctional Institution."
