Rain coming later, or so the rumor has it. Back to the Knox Grafton again.

I may be changing into my Filson hat and coat later to test it's water resistance during a bit of walking in the rain.

I see everybody is bringing out their Sunday best. Fine hats all around.

So many great hats over the Thanksgiving Holiday! Well done everyone!

MM, that vented Bantam is especially sweet!

Okay, so I finally landed an Open Road that was "NOT" Silverbelly but a nice light grey

It's a 3X that was in serious need of a reblocking and flanging which didn't even take an hour to do. It's now pristine and was like a new hat otherwise. The pricing on vintage 7 1/2's and 7 5/8's has gone to the stratosphere! Don't see many new vintage hats in my future unless they're in need of some work like this one. Just saw a Bates go for $590. More than I payed for either of my Whippets. In fact it's nearly what I payed for both!

That's beautiful , Tommy. Great color. I like the diamond best on the OR's. Your version of a diamond especially.

It might not be a 40's hat. Can you show the tags under the sweat as well as the size tag? I own a late 40's whippet, it has stars on both....

I've had derbies on the brain, so I grabbed a second hat o' the day on my way out the door with Gabe to join Rebecca for lunch at her job.

Knox Excellent Quality.

Tell us (me) more about it.
Looks nice.

Ahh. You just made my day.

It was not on purpose. I was going out and needed a hat. I just grab the one on top of a pile of hats. It was this one.

Thank you, Harv. Brim is 3.5 inches. I don't know much about these hats . Liner says "Real Nutria" . It's old..... I just don't know how old. Any thoughts?

Very old. I think Alan's Real Nutria doesn't have the liner and yours do!

Thanks Ant. I was waiting for cooler weather because it's such a dark color but I'm glad to finally get to wear it. Mike makes a great hat.

Thanks. Simple center dent n pinches. Hat was so stiff it didn't let me do anything else.
