What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Mr. Paladin]

Tonight it was my Hückel Exklusiv Homburg.

Great homburg specimen, that!

 

[Mr. Paladin]

Here's a Borsalino XXXXX Leo. It was a mildewy, nasty mess when received, but well worth the hours of work I've put into it, including a re-block and some very careful work to bring the sweatband back. It's now bordering on being a mint-looking hat. It fits perfectly and is some of the nicest felt I've had - very similar to '40s Stetson 3X dress hat felt - soft and floppy. It is a nice taupe color and might be my favorite post-1940 hat ever. I didn't actually wear it today, but took it off the block after drying and bashed it temporarily for this shot:

Wow, Scott! A lot of work but worth it for sure. Well Done! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

 

[Mr. Paladin]

Very nice, sir! :eusa_clap

Nice Bolt; I do like to see you in those wider brims. Wish you were coming to Monteagle....

Apparently, Ruffies Have Ridges!

Modern (2009/10) Stetson Whippet, with Binding Trimmed off.. After a lot of soul searching, the Crown on this hat was just too LOW for that wide of a brim.. Now its perfect and has gone from 'i feel odd wearing this' to 'i love this hat'

Nice, Musashi! What kind of guitar is that in the background? 335 shape, but I can't make out the headstock. The shape of the headstock looks a little like an Epiphone, but I can't really tell for sure. It could just be because it's fuzzy, but the pickups don't look like regular humbuckers. I could swear that they look like DeArmonds.

 

[Musashi]

Good eye! That is an Epiphone "Dot" - ES-335 Clone. Pickups are epiphone stock.

There's also my daughter's Squire Hello Kitty in Pink over by the door. it's harder to see. lol
