What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Richard Morgan]

Thanks Matt. I see you are up to two hats now with the nice Lee this afternoon. I'm up to two as well, plus a cap.

Polo herringbone cap for biking today.

And then while I was out I found this panama at my favorite vintage store.

2 3/4" brim, around 4 1/4" crown as pinched. I'd seen it there before, but today I decided it fit well enough to try

You can see the original price of $5.00 written in pencil above the sweat.

Thanks Richard. I was very happy to find the Panama yesterday. I like this color in a straw.

The spectators are some old Freemans with a mix of, I believe, nylon mesh and leather. How old I can't really guess.

The Bantam you got from Harv is a dandy. Great looking hat.

Thanks,
Michael

Supposed to be 80 here today too, though with a chance of thunder. For now the new Melvin panama was calling me.

Super nice straw.

Wearing the Beaver brand. I needed a photo for the gunfight group I will be joining, so my wife took one for me. Thought I would share,

Love it. The outfit screams “I’m your huckleberry.”

Super nice straw.

Thanks Scotty. I'm wondering how old it is. Searching on Melvin brought me nothing. And I'm don't know when $5 was the going rate for a mid-range panama. They had a bunch of stingy milans from the same seller, but, sadly, they were all too small for me.

Thanks,
Michael

What a fine looking panama! The pug really accentuates the color of the straw.

A great look Dd. The crown seems too tall to look Amish. Some of the edgier Mennonites might wear one that tall, but with a teardrop crease. Or so my memory tells me.

Thanks Dd. The three vintage woven straws I have, one Panama and two Hopoka, all have some variation of this color pug. Must have been a popular pairing.

I like everything about this hat! The color, bash, brim and the vintage. Damn!

Thanks Stefan. Have to like sunshine at this time of year. Though tomorrow is supposed to hit 80 and I have a feeling I'll be seeking shade.

Thanks Stefan. It's a bit unruly in the brim, but a fun hat to wear.

Both nice hats, but the Atlantis is superb. You wear it well.

Thanks,
Michael

Thanks, Michael!

Got it... and thank you. It's light and simple and a pleasure to wear.

Very classy Stefan. That Atlantis sure is a beaut! Black hats matter.

Thanks, Mike. I find that I have far more black hats than I'd care to admit. Might as well wear them too.
