What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Bob Roberts]

It's sunny but cold here in Central Ohio. We didn't even get the dusting of snow that was predicted for our area. No snow for us. We lucked out, this time. Some of you guys look like you got hit pretty good. At least you're all well hatted, though.

I posted this picture a couple weeks back but I'm wearing this western conversion again today. It's an unknown Western brand, possibly a store brand. It was pretty beat up when I got it. Some reblocking and some moderate converting with a ribbon change and I ended up with this. Big Texas Fedora sounds fitting enough, I guess....

Before:

Why hat wearing became less popular in the 1950s...

They kept falling off their heads when they were dancing....the grandfather of Rock and Roll, Bill Haley & His Comets.

NICE conversion. Like the center dent and healthy rake.

Nice pictures of the snow. That is very rare in Lisbon.
Today started with this "silver dollar" Stagecoach

And ended with this Navy blue Stetson The Billy Kidd

Harv... Though your cheeks are rosy, you don't look happy. People pay good money at health clubs for lesser workouts! Take it easy out there, old fella. Glad to hear about the little guy.

Harv, as I realized that the forcast for 1-4 inches was way off for my area I donned the same expression

Day two at the rugby 7s. Envious of all the snow, although it is only 32c today.
The hat is an old Wrangler Jhonson.

Went for a stroll yesterday morning. The SB CD was on my head first, but then I re-discovered this Orvis Muir Woods. I had bought this for a good friend for Christmas, about three or four years ago. It didn't fit him and decided that this wasn't his sort of hat. I had meant to send it back, but that task, somehow got lost in the shuffle as did the hat. Found it a few months ago, tried it on, and it fits just fine for me. I'm not a big fan of "outback" style hats, but the felt on this one is very hard and stiff—much more so than either of my CD's. Perfect for high winds and blowing snow as it is a snug fit and has a turned down, three inch brim.

Snow and water just bead-up and roll off of this hat. Quite pleased and surprised—this hat has found it's niche.

Wow. I didn't realize how much snow some of you guys got already. Usually, Central Ohio gets hammered. I'm not complaining, though.

From last year...

For today, another reworked Stagecoach.

Any of you older dudes remember these guys? Sha Na Na. I used to watch these guys on TV every week back in the early '70s..."Don't You Just Know It"

The original version, 1958. Huey Smith and the Clowns

7 UP commercial, featuring Teen Angel early 70s. I remember this one too!

It's all good Charlie. We are not use to this much white stuff. It was so windy with blowing snow, it was hard to smile. Its not the shoveling, its the reshoveling.[emoji14]

Depends on who you ask. In my house, so long as I'm asking myself, the answer is no.

I like this! haha

Beautiful Sunday morning here in Virginia Beach. The boy and I are headed out to get our ears lowered and my beard mowed. Premier Knox Fifth Ave for the journey...

Good luck to each of you having to dig out of the avalanche.
