Nice Adam.

Wearing this Resistol Stagecoach conversion again today. I did a little tweaking to the pinch and made it tighter and I reflanged the brim again. I was trying to get a little closer to Alan Ladd's China hat. It has a nice tall straight crown with a 2 5/8 brim....here's the redo, (the picture of me wearing the hat is closer to the actual color).

I've always admired that one,TJ.

Molto bello e ottimo lavoro.
Bravo TJ!

I was going to wear my new Campdraft today but it's too dang cold. Can't believe how stiff this thing is. I used so much steam on this hat you would swear you were at a pipe fitters convention. Not the crease I wanted but apparently it's the crease the hat wanted

TJ, You really hit the 40s look with that one. Great hat. I can never get a pinch that tight to stick.

I missed a great end of the year on the Lounge yesterday. I was going to make multiple comments about hats and happy news. But really, one word will suffice for it all: Fantastic!

Wes... I'm terribly sorry for your loss.

Moon... FIGHTING HAT (AND LOUNGE) MONKEY ARE FIGHTS WE CAN'T WIN (except maybe with methadone and/or burbon and/or severed fingers so we can't type or pick up hats). But seriously... I am grateful that you are back. The place isn't the same without you and your monstercrazydisturbing collection and knowledge.

My marvelous new year begins under a Vita-Felt.

We have the rare Chesapeake Bay effect snow showers today so this flake is headed out to chase some other flakes. We don't get to see much snow around here.

I hope that each of you great folks have the best year ever. May it be totally groovy. View attachment 100394 View attachment 100396 View attachment 100397 View attachment 100398 View attachment 100399 View attachment 100400 View attachment 100401

Great Vita-Felt Matt. Did you replace the ribbon?

Last day of 2017.
Looking forward to big changes in 2018.

That crown seems to go on until 2019!

Beautiful, Roger!

That homburg goes well with that great coat. Love the color and brim curl.

Thanks, Mike. I don't wear it often enough really.

Another cold, snowy, Funkytown morning. Off to services in the modern Stetsonian.

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Superb, Jim!

View attachment 100321 On the final day of 2017, my light sage Vintage Silhouettes dress felt at my sister/brother-in-law's in preparation for this evening. Full disclosure... we started early.

Who could I think of, except for @Chamuco when we polished off this bottle! How'd we do, Rodolfo?!!

Great look. Love the colour of that ribbon with that hat.

A Gannon to celebrate the end of 2017. I wish everyone a Happy New Year a prosperous New Year.

Unique colour combination, Richard. Love it!

Great Vita-Felt Matt. Did you replace the ribbon?

Thanks Richard.

No... it looks to be the original ribbon. I've always thought that whomever chose the color should be given a medal (even if posthumously). It is rare for me to see such a color on a hat so old. It makes for a startling contrast.

Happy New Year to you and yours.

Last day of the year in my Resistol Panda. Happy New Year's to all, and thanks for all the likes and nice comments this past year. Also for showing so many beautiful hats.

It would be a bit too much where I live, but love the look. Longhaired goodness!

Every time I try to leave this place ...

Just love you guys too much ... here’s to another year on the lounge

Happy New Year friends

Happy & healthy to you and all of yours

Another great one, Anthony! You're both an inspiration and a source of endless jealousy. Have a good year and keep up inspiring us.

Go forth and play in the rare snow. Probably should take that beautiful hat off before making Snow (gravel) Angels though.

Yeah, I'm liking that tight pinch with those straight sides on that crown. You do cool conversion work Terry. Love seeing them.

The year is starting off on a cold note. Had to go with a fedora for the first time in a couple of weeks in any case. Marathon.

Have a great New Years Day,
Michael

The Marathon looks good after a little winter sleep. Maybe the cold will break soon and the flow of fedoras will emanate from your closet. Enjoy your day Michael.

Very good looking hat Stefan. Does the brim binding have hint of red or pink to it?

Thanks, Richard. You're really asking the wrong person as I'm colourblind. But the grey brim binding is a warmer grey for sure!

HNY, and thanks for the education!

Well there goes my new years resolution to be less jealous out of the window!
