What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Tukwila]

Hemp Stratoliner at the park with the kids today. Summer is here in Kentucky! Temps in the upper 80's this week. I enjoyed wearing this hat during some Derby gigs my bluegrass band played this weekend too!

Nice hat, but you just got photo-bombed by a little doll!

Very cool look, Michael.

Thanks Stefan. Hard to beat linen chambray for a summer day.

Dunlap again today. It was so bright the hat wasn't enough, hence the shades.

Most excellent hat and suit combo. Great look.

F. G. M. In dark green velour. This is a recent acquisition and my first/only wear before it gets boxed for the summer. Another reason to look forward to autumn.

So cool looking Brent, I gotta get me one of these.

Recent find. Royal Stetson. Olive. Though it has a gray-ish tint, it is olive! The brim treatment reminds me of the trim on a Stetson Flagship I saw in the Lounge. Has some nibbles and bites. But that felt! It has the hand of a 3X Beaver to me.

Great Stetson NJ! Very interesting color. Had to sift through every picture on the lounge that posted with yours, but very enjoyable trip down today's memory lane. Good on ya!

Such a nice looking summer hat. Glad to see the weather has improved for you in Holland.

J. Heinrich ITA Wien "Extra Qualität" probably early 1950s possibly earlier.

Another ITA, two in a matter of days. Classic lines and great liner. I think I'll have an IPA!

Weis Panama

Boy this new format has really thrown me for a loop, you grew that beard so quick. Very disturbing, but a wonderful Weis.

WovenHemp Strat for a 90 degree day

Keep the cool hats coming

I like that color. I have to give Stetson come credit for imprinting a proper Boeing on the sweat. Nice!

Headed to work in a vintage Peters Bros (60s) with VS ribbon treatment. Art’s work is awesome. It was his choice to to forest green.

Not to sound like your mother. But he’s so silly [emoji12]
And honestly, I think you should go for this look more often.[emoji8][emoji6]



Yesterday it was absolutely boiling hot here. So buntal was in order.

The heat and humidity continue (but only for about nine more months) - so, today it's vented shantung Stetson Open Road. Not a faux-straw fan (other than it's indestructability) but this one is much lighter than the regular shantung OR's and the open-weave makes a huge difference. I like the warm color much better than the "white" ones.

Mallory XV circa mid 1950s today. Love this hat, shark's gills and wide brim binding. Presentation in my Russian History class today, have to look good. Still can't get the button on the wind trolley to behave...

A spot of rain earlier and still a nice cool morning. Resistol Stagecoach should keep my head dry if any more shows up.

That XV is a great looking hat Red. Should wow them at the class.

Feeling a bit under the weather yesterday, I decided to take a personal day. As we all know, idle hands are the Devil's workshop, so after laying around a bit I finally motivated myself to finishing this refurb. About a month ago, I found a Dobbs Hanover Square at an estate sale for the astronomical price of $2.50. A little beat, and a bit dirty, with a few nibbles, but all in all still in acceptable shape. In preparation for a bath, I had my first bad Lexol experience. After treating the sweat, I went back and looked several hours later and the leather had separated from the reed assembly in such a way it was not repairable. So a call to Bond set me up with a new sweatband. I gave it a naphtha bath, a good steam bath, ironed out the crown, and re-flanged it. I took the opportunity of being at home yesterday to cut and install the new sweat (in addition to putting a new sweat in a hat for my wife).

So today, a Dobbs Hanover Square. Hat by Dobbs, unfinished sweat by Bond, refurb by Fruno.

Some of the original sweat. There were no store debossments.

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Nice save Jim. Great hat. Since the threat of rain has turned into sunshine it put me in the mood to don the Hanover Square while sitting out on the new patio furniture set I thrifted yesterday.

The comfort factor for coffee in the yard mornings skyrocketed with the new chairs.

The weather has been nice, sunny and bright but still cool and breezy. Perfect for my light weight Borsalino Icaro. I'm really liking this hat, the more I wear it the more I like it!

Another ITA, two in a matter of days. Classic lines and great liner. I think I'll have an IPA!

Mike, Thank you!

Thanks, Mike. Can't get much cooler than Snoopy, but one of my nicknames was in fact "Woodstock". So more like this:
