What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

S4C, great looking hat and it looks great on you. Spiffy tie as well.

Looking good strapped!

BGGCD for me today.

Sorry about the blur. This camera does not do well in low light and after 10 tries I was done. Flash kills the creases so I don't use it.

Well, another hat prompted by a Lounger's pics. Matt is beginning to convince me that a Homburg isn't just for more formal attire.

This Dobbs has the nicest felt of any of the hats I own, and I'm glad that ofcoursemyhorse sold it to me. It's just a beautiful hat. The liner is pristine, but the brim binding has a few rubbed spots, which are the ONLY issues with the hat. This one always gets positive comments.

Looks absolutely great Mark! Two enthusiastic thumbs up!!!

Wow! That is a fabulous lid, my friend! What is the brim width?

Thanks Harv, Bama and Mike.

It has a 3 inch brim, Harv. It is the widest brimmed hat that I own, except for a couple westerns that rarely come out to play.

I love it. I thought that the brim was wider than your standard.

I'd like to put in a request for "Western Friday" for you!

Today is my ca. 1960 Stetson OR/Strat (it doesn't have a model name on the sweatband):


It's my only Long Oval, and fits very lightly and comfortably.

Thank you, sir. The silverbelly beast came to me via frussell here at FL. I'd put him on to a pair of 6 3/4 Strats I'd found in a vintage store here, perfect for his kids, and he sold this one to me at a bargain price. "Royal De Luxe Stetson" (it reads just like that) is on the sweat. It's funny -- it's also the one of my hats that can go dressy with a topcoat or sportjacket, yet also go with jeans and boots. No wonder the OR/Strat has proved so popular over decades.

Great Stratoliner. Modern, or vintage?

The Temple used to be my go-to hat in the '90s, when I was first getting into lids, and I still have two that I wear from time to time. A good choice.

That looks like a wonderful hat... have you posted more images on the C&K thread?

Thank you, Alan. I did back in 2013, when I first stumbled upon the hat. Here is the link: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/index.php?posts/1715859

I have since replaced the ribbon. I can't seem to find another example of a C&K Forty, despite lots of trying. Have you seen one?
