What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[blueAZNmonkey]

Ok. Another successful treasure has been acquired. Another Champ! As was the last Champ no date on this one. This is a Taupe with Chocolate Ribbon. I have also added pictures of my son's newly acquired vintage sage colored Marathon made for J.C. Penny felt I picked up. And last but not least is a vintage Dobbs Fifth Avenue hat box I scored for a few bucks. This really was a successful day.

Dang! I wish our local antique malls carried this type of merch. I have yet to cross a good hat at our bazaars, let alone one in my size.

Amen! I just went through 4 of our local antique malls today and managed to find only one vintage hat!! A Penneys Boater and that was it.

That got two groans AND an eyeroll. BRAVO!!

I typically only find women's hats and the few men's lids are extremely shrunken size 7's =(

Incredible, perfect ensemble. Let's face it, you were just born in the wrong century.

+1 Redneck Baseball caps are all I find here in my berg.

Had a lunch meeting today and it was felt weather in Oregon. Gray and cool, so I went gray and cool with my lid. Borsalino c.1975 that I got from our Italian Connection, Daniele. This Borso seems to run a little small for a 58cm, but I still love it so.

Fantastic Champ, it looks NOS! That tag with the Champ Name and size is worth the price of admission!

Thanks! Yes I figured if that didn't prove it was never worn I don't know what will. :-D

 

[Zombie_61]

I think the cap looks good on you. Maybe you need one of these to go with it?


Or maybe one of these, instead of the cap?

The last time I wore a tie was July 2011, so I'm afraid those would be wasted on me. But that bandana/do-rag might do the trick.

My sincere thanks to all for the comments and likes. While most forums of this kind are at best a rendezvous of strangers, every day the members here on The Lounge are inspirational, aspirational, and simply wonderful.

Nothing boring about that brim at all!

Taking my new (old) Habig homburg out for a bike ride today. I have decided homburgs are my favourite cycling hats on windy days. More pictures of the hat in the German & Austrian Hutmacher's thread here. Glad to see all of you still looking stylish as ever, and some new faces too!

Stetson Bantam

Nice, Harv!

Tonight I will celebrate 25 years as a member of the Engineers Club of Dayton. Founded in 1914 by Charles Kettering and Col. Edward Deeds. I am privileged to have been on the member rolls that have held Orville Wright, Arthur Morgan, and Hans Von Ohain (and Edward Murphy who gave us Murphy's law). I was sponsored originally by Wilson Charbonneau, a grandnephew of Toussaint Charbonneau, who married Sacajawea. It's a big night for me, personally.

So naturally, I'm wearing my Stetson 25.
