What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[alanfgag]

I don't think I've ever seen a heathered Derby like that Alan. Very nice.

Definitely not a common look - at least in the hats that have survived today. mFavaro is a Borsalino misto in a color name that corresponds to "blacksmith", at least I think so.

Alan makes me feel like I am just toying around like a child with hats. After reading the Stylepark thread and other older threads, I’ve come to the realization that this man is full grown serious!
Maybe one day I will grow up to be a real hat guy. Or, at least grow up, right?
LOL

<smile> I was a relentless pursuer at one point in time. I am more restrained these days. Unfortunately, I've always been better at buying than at selling.

Brent,
That's really striking but it doesn't quite look like it's taken on a life of its own like that grey bowler.

I’m usually careful not to follow Alan as no matter how nice you think your hat is it will look pedestrian in comparison.

Yeah it’s a lot like chasing a race car driver. Fun for awhile until you hit a tree.
Better to be the little choo choo train.

I'm tempted to make something out of a cardboard shoe box, Elmer's glue, pipe cleaners and glitter. Might as well just admit defeat and shuffle off.

A other beauty, Alan. One like that is on my wish list!

This gloomy grey and wet day has me wearing this somewhat unusual Bee Hats mixed material hat.

the brim, trim and center stripe of the crown are a grey speckled wool. With smooth grey felt patches the make up the sides of the crown.
I’m not sure what it is about this hat but something about it’s styling strikes me as a Gloomy rainy day kinda hat. The lining and sweat seem to be a nylon material that might protect your head from some of the moisture that might seep though.

Thank you Tim... the best way to appreciate the range of possible hues of gray is to try to match up a gray hat with a gray outfit. ;^)

A real standout, Brent.

Yes, it was getting a bit jealous.

That Cervo has a very cool look to it.

Thanks,

Thanks, Michael. Nice look with that Open Road you sported thursday; completely different hat without the usual cattleman crease on those.

 

[steur]

Two more nice ones Stefan, and nice Herringbone !

Thanks, Tim.

Out running some errands at lunch in the Dutch Connection Borsalino Ecosan. Thanks again Stefan !!

This weekend I'm breaking in a brand new Stetson Sutley, I really like this one.
It's perched atop the helmet I was wearing when I had my heart attack last October when a blob of crud broke loose and totally plugged up an aorta.
Gentlemen, if you suddenly feel like you are nothing BUT a rib cage and a giant hand is trying to squeeze it flat do NOT get on your motorcycle and try and tough it out as you won't get there.
These pictures don't show just how trashed the helmet was after I plowed through a corn field at speed. It ripped off all of the vents and the face shield is cracked right where my right eye was. These Arai helmets are okay with me. One little batch of color missing from the Vanson leathers and nary a scratch on me.
Bike took a bit of a beating and smelled like a pop corn maker once I got it back from the towing company but it was put back into service quickly enough.

I opened the trilby box and enjoyed making a choice on which ones to wear on these sunny days

Borsalino Amiata size 6 1/2 so a 7 1/2 US that confirming the Borsalino fame: it's tight enough for my head, but wearable

I kept this hat in the collection for its incredible color which is common in the grays of Borsalino, but here, with long-haired felt, it becomes fantastic

It is clearly a product of the seventies with a care in the finishes and quality of the felt, unthinkable today

Maybe I will put some other trilby or short-brim on my head, I have gathered others to be sold, even if for some I am sorry having very rare characteristics

Happy weekend all and thanks for your likes on Panizza Ediston!
Compliments for your wonderful hats!!!

You covered all the ribbon widths in that post Stefan.
I really like the narrow ribbon Knox, but They all look great.

I'll never catch up to the parade of perfection seen here this week! But just to wave the flag a bit, today I grabbed the Stylepark Templeform, complete with the fixed wind-cord button.

And to think I thought "Templeform" meant I could only wear it on Saturdays or holidays!

Have Super Saturday!!!

Definitely a good thing you were wearing a helmet. I don’t get these guys I see on the Highway going 80mph with no helmet.

I may occasionally run around the corner to the store on little side streets without one, but on the highway is insanity.

LOL. Man, another nice Templeform ! I gotta get me one....

Now THIS is yet another VERY special one for you, Alan! I can immediately tell by the extra impish grin on your mug today, my friend. One swell lid!!
