What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

The East has snow, but out here in the West it's sunny and 75. Go figure. Wearing a Pilgrim today.

You look great in the Pilgrim, standing tall in the sun!

Thanks, Doug! One of my first custom lids, still a favorite.

Great hat, but I can't top Moon's reaction.


Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Thanks for all of the nice comments on my OR, and special thanks to Anthony for the classic Jackie Gleason footage! Love it!

It's still hot over here, but I wanted to take blue monkey creation #2 out for a spin! The felt is Czech rabbit by way of ManHatCo in NY; the leather and lining is from lounger @bond .

My personal critique -- I need to block these with higher, straighter crowns -- I find that my current block doesn't provide enough slack to get really creative with the crease sculpting. Still - I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!

I think that's a great effort for a beginner! Nice felt! What's the color and please show us the bow treatment on the left side.

The color is regular navy, and here's the ribbon =)

There's the ribbon =)

I really like your style! What color is the felt, navy?

I grabbed the Everyman Casablanca this morning.

Yeah, regular navy - hah, sorry I edited my last response cuz I realized I didn't answer your question! Raymond at ManHatCo carries two shades of men's blue -- regular navy and midnight navy. The midnight looks almost black unless you are standing under a bright light, so I went with the regular navy -- it looks a bit brighter in the solo photos than it does in person, but you can definitely tell it's blue.

So nice, loungers, so nice.

I'm just awestruck by your ambition, effort and results, Blue!
