What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[alanfgag]

Wow Alan! That one is a keeper! What era is it from?

A tip of the hat in thanks... it is post-war from the 1950s I believe.

A visit from the postman forced a midday hat change.

I've had a love/hate relationship with the rust colored ribbon that comes stock on Stetson's Racine model since I first laid eyes on it.

Earlier this month I worked up the courage to let Van at JJ Hat Center swap it out for one that matches the trim. So, debuting for the very first time....(insert drumroll, preferably played by the Lounge's one and only @moontheloon)...my modded Stetson Racine:

Giddy up.

I think you made a great choice in changing out that ribbon. It looks great!

Good day folks. Left early morning in a Monsavais cap made of Donegeal wool.

Home for lunch and a dog walk and wearing a Gannon (navy blue w/charocal trimmings).

Comparatively balmy afternoon finds me comfortable in a sweater. By gosh it is 24'F! Balmy.

Best, Eric -

very nice Michael !!!

those dimensions look quite different than my Whippets

would you mind a few measurements? ... I am curious ... could be the camera angles ?

Hey people!
Many thanks for the likes on yesterday's project. Harder to make a sloppy careless looking bow (that doesn't look kike total crap) than it is to make a nice sharp crisp one. From what somebody posted shortly after I posted the pics of the original bow, the style only lasted a year or two. I think I know why...
Today is a great day for a G.B.Borsalino fu Lazzaro &C. Stiff Felt.

My way of saying fu, 2016.
Have a great day!

I don't know which I like more, the Dobbs or those pants! You are always such a treat every morning!

Thanks Red.

Never quite sure how you measure a brim, ie from ribbon or from sweat, but it's 2 1/4 or 2 3/8 front, possibly a touch less on the sides and 5 1/2 open. No idea the age.

Nice old Dobbs! The best part of a Game Bird is the liner art. Have you posted pics of this before?

Red,

Detailed pix of this and the Cross Country I found on the same day are in the Dobbs Diner.

Another dog walking hat, Stetson xxxx. It has a hint of green that I really like.
When you have a German Short Hair Pointer, you need a good supply of walking hats, cause you walk A lot!

What, no pooch pic?

I would have added a hat, but she won't stand still that long unless she is on point.
