What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[EstherWeis]

Nice looking display and excellent looking hat sweetheart.

Good thing you got the Valentines display done early since you're going to be here in TWO DAYS!

Great looking hats y’all!

What a nice color and crease! I like that a lot!

Thanks D-d. I thought it might be in your bailiwick.

It's probably just my made in Taiwan monitor. What's your address? I'll send you some Green Spot.


Me too!

I don't think my monitor can even aspire to being made in Taiwan. And thanks for the generous offer.

Still searching for one

I'm sure one will turn up for you Joao. But it might get lost in that great collection of tall crowned hats you already have.

Thanks all,
Michael

Don't look "rusty ribbon" up on Urban Dictionary while at work. [emoji16]

Too late.

O'Farrell after its gas bath and adding a braided band.

That cleaned up real nice Bob. It's a great color and the new band works very well.

It looks green in the photos, which I like, btw. I'm even thinking of having one made.

If you want a greenish Indy hat, look for the old Akubra Fed III in Mid-Brown. One of the reasons I eventually sold mine was that color's distinct greenish cast.



Aside from a couple of OD jackets, I don't wear anything in the green family (and little in the tan/khaki range), so that greenish brown didn't work well for me. (The Dark Brown now used for the Fed IV has a red undertone, not green.)

Today, it's "Fine Find Friday," folks... Here's what I found, and will wear for the day:
Frank Stack, in deep brown! (Early to mid 1940s.) More photos here, in the Stack Hats thread.

Fed IIIs seem to be rarer than hens' teeth. Aside from the brown one I bought used 9 years ago, I have never seen another one for sale.

I have also since determined that the III is structurally too big for me in every dimension. But thanks for the idea!

I'd still probably buy one (in my size and that color) if one became available.

Oh, I also felt it was always too big for me! That was another reason I sold mine. I replaced it with a Taupe Fawn Campdraft, which is a better color for me, and despite having similar dimensions, it doesn't seem like too much hat.

Stetson

Man, that's a nice, tall Stetson, Perry. And you're able to find outerwear (your jacket) with a "XXXX" quality designation?! THAT's cool!!
