What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Bob Roberts]

@blueAZNmonkey - i am colorblind and Tiffani Bell in the Optimo Chicago store picked out that teal with a seafoam ribbon for me. i received a ton of compliments walking the streets of Chicago that day, most people commenting on how much they liked the color. Did I spend to much money on the hat? Probably. Would I do it again? Definitely.

Can't go wrong with blue. It's an easy color.

Beautiful hat and kudos for the unusual color. That's a great jacket, as well. Mind if I ask the make?

TONAK (Formely Hückel) Zephyr Seal Velour probably late 1940s early 1950s. Made for the American market and very difficult to photograph!

Mayser - Not only do I get to see a beautiful hat, but I get a history lesson as well. I love it. Thanks for the information.

@tropicalbob the jacket is the Mister Freedom Veste Ouvrier in indigo

Your hats of the last 2 days have been off the hook, crazy sweet Hats!

Thanks so much, Fed! I appreciate your kind comments, sir.

Thank you! Great looking Dobbs 40! Also as usual very sharply attired!

Today VS, blue smoke (which was how I convinced my wife I needed another hat...)

I save the feather for special occasions.

I love this, my goal is for a VS in a nice light blue. Is this color more toward the blue end or a really light gray? My monitor shows it as almost white. Nice ribbon as well.

Modern Stetsonian today.

The close up of the felt quality is a nice shot. Love the lines, and that edge binding is wonderful.

That shark's gill goes on forever. Like the pearl pin, it sets off the detail of that wonderful ribbon. Super cool liner also!!

Much nicer morning. A Resistol Ultra Stingy in the process of being imagined as a derby.

The thought just struck me this morning while I was trying to decide what hat to wear.

Is it worth pursuing?

I need to go buy the ice melter that I've forgotten to get on my last 3 outings. And maybe a haircut.

Hope everyone is having a good day. Lots of fine hats out I see.

I kinda like it! A great way to change the look of a super narrow brim. It will make me look at a few Ebay listings in a new way. And I love love that tweed double breasted!!

The thermostat hit 43 degrees this morning and I'm wearing flannel! Hats off to Harv for not giving in to the cold!
40's Stetson mid ribbon.

Great one! Love a mid ribbon with nice contrast to a light felt color.

 

[Redfokker]

40, I'm bowled over by every hat!
Harv, you make me feel like I need to toughen up. I've been wearing my Woolrich coats for weeks!

Doing some Christmas shopping today with a trusty copper/brown Stetson Sovereign Twenty Mode Edge

That color of brown sings in the sunshine, I love it!

Everybody's looking good again today. Too many nice hats to comment on individually again I'm afraid. And even out in the real world I saw more hats than usual thanks to the cold weather. Not only that, I saw not one, but two men wearing Homburgs in town today! And I'm not talking high street fashion hats (not that high street shops even have homburgs), but proper, nice black felt hommies! Not as awesome as that borsa Steve wore yesterday, but still really nice. That made me happy

You need to reinforce this behavior in Homburg wearing by smiling at these stylish gentlemen in a approving fashion!

Akubra Fed IV tonight.

Geez, you can really rock the hats, Harv!

 

[Redfokker]

Good morning. Mild temps, 15'F, found me wearing the Borsalino Misto for a second day.

It waits in the backseat during my errands this afternoon with other headgear options.

Best, Eric -

I'd be sleeping in that Misto if I wasn't afraid of messing up the brim!

Un Placer Doug, de verdad, un abrazo

Claro, abrazos, mi hermano de los sombreros!

 

[Redfokker]

Hmmm... $2.50????
I'll give you $2, sound good?
I think that I still have your address from the homburg transaction.
I'll get it into the mail.
Or... do you accept debit cards?

I do hope that you can get over your laziness to get out into public with the bowl, though.
I don't recall ever seeing a picture of you in a "bowl"er.
(Yes... pathetically bad... I know.)

NO Canadian Biltmore "Selkirk." Rosellini finish.

What special quality does the Rosellini have. It looks good from here, beautiful hat!

Can't wait for the weekend

Wow! what a brim Blue!

 

[Redfokker]

Great looking side dents.
