What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[tommyK]

Not what hat I'm wearing today, but more of a follow up. It took the four day weekend, but I think I'm starting to find some breathing room in the garage.

This is 'my' side as the wife refuses to relinquish 'her' side. Though, I have no problems storing her HD on my side, as long as I get to ride it from time to time.

BFC, I'm digging the Scrambler! Just sold my modern Bonnie to buy a Super Tenere. Wanted to do some longer rides and have cruise control!

Alan, Great to see the Otto Matt! Not sure if I told you but I found him in the 1926 Austrian Hat Industry Guide.

Page 52 (see hand written 6/6 32? next to his name)

Wow... talk about a needle in a haystack. How would you characterize his business? Small hat maker/retail store?

It could be a very small factory similar to Zapf. I am basing this on the some of the other entries that are marked (by the owner of he guide). I will have to see if I can find more.

Choice hat and a great look today. Stylin'.





Another absolute mind blowing beauty of a hat.



I've got the sun today, but it's definitely now shirt sleeve weather. Hope the busy work isn't just busywork.



Nice hat. Is that a whipstitched brim edge?

Michael

Thanks Michael. And yes, it is the trademark Borsalino whipstitch on the brim.

Sorry by my bad english

Don't worry about it. We can all read it quite well...and many of us English speakers can't make it through more than a sentence of any other language without an on-line translator.

 

[moehawk]

Oh, and congrats Esther on your new studio!

 

[Bigger Don]

I could put this one in the "new hats" or the "Akubra Overload" or the "fresh from the elements" threads, but I will put it here for today.

Never seen a beating for too many posts of the same pic of a fine hat!

Todays hat Akubra Stylemaster, looks better sitting on my black Indy and a Stetson Straw Strat than on my ugly mug.

The Mrs. and I just got back from an awesome birthday weekend in Palm Springs! Lots of catching up to do. Another early '50's Stetson St. Regis today:

Dapper!

Great hat with lots of character, it suits you. Like the purple!

Wearing a Portis today. I think this was my first thin ribbon hat.

I reverted to the Stetsonian again today to stay warm on a 25-degree morning.

Smooth! You always look so stylish.

One of the few places where my collection crosses paths with Steve's is this old Austrian fedora. I purchased this hat from our absent member Mario, who had given it his signature sharp crease and steep front crown. I've never changed it, nor do I wear it as well as he did.

I love the lines of this showpiece! It just flows...

Stingy Dobbs Guilded Edge today.

Looks good Wess, is it black or really dark brown? I have one with a taller crown just about like it. Don't wear it enough...
