What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[steur]

Very nice trio Stefan. Love the ribbon and binding on the Portis

Thanks, Joe. It's what sold it to me!

J Lord. Was looking for a vintage Whippet style hat and saw this on Goodwill. $10 plus $9.50 shipping So about $20.00
Needs a cleaning and has some very tiny moth bites, just a few and you have to look hard to see them. What the hell, I bought it. I read J Lord was a custom hatter. After cleaning I think I'm holding a nice lid. Wearing it to the grocer just to see how I like it.

That is a beautiful hat! Nice find.

My hat and finished lunch and back to work we go. Char Sui Ramen was excellent!

Hats this close to food always make me feel uneasy. Both hat and food look excellent though, Eric.

Today....i love lightweight, unreeded, unlined vintage hats. Bantams, Strats, etc. pretty much any in this category.
So, the Knox Vagabond fits the bill with what i call “whisper felt”. You just whisper a crease into it. Lovely!!
The bummer on this one is i enjoy it so much it keeps losing stitches on the sweatband. I’ll need to remedy this shortly.
Be well. Bowen

As @Redfokker would say: black hats matter. Fabulous, Bowen. Anyone heard from him recently btw?

Brüder Böhm "Velour" possibly 1930s.

Brüder Böhm, Hat Liner Dye Stamp possibly 1930s and from my September 2015 Czech find.

Great hat, Steve. I love those simple but highly detailed liners.

Stefan, Thank you! Great looking Dobbs from you. Really like the color combination.

Great hat, Greg. If only we could them for that today!

Thanks, Stefan. So true.

The wind here today is absolutely ridiculous. It’s a miracle my dark moss VS isn’t floating away in the ocean. Y’all have a fantastic weekend.

I haven't decided if it's smoke kielbasa next or fresh hot Italian.

Out this afternoon in a vintage 1947 Stetson Vogue.

While "Right For Dress-Up" the hat works with my more country attire.

Best, Eric -

Confession: I’m in love with your Vogue, Eric, AND I’M NOT ASHAMED!!!

Don’t remember seeing you so unmatchy with your hat. But today you have proven that it just don’t matter!
Sweet Dobbs! Looks like a Gorasgu.
And it looks like I must go on eating out my heart; as @Hagwood heartlessly told me the other day.

Instead of heart, I’d rather eat some of that homemade smoked sausage, Michael. My brother makes smoked country sausage using homemade hogs and goat intestine for casing. Got some in the fridge and now, thanks to your post, know what I’ll be eating for lunch!
Of course, by now, it should go without saying, I dig your Dobbs Hanover!
One day...

Resistol conversion with new 5/8" ribbon by local place, Shorty's Caboy Hattery. This is the one that was squished badly by Fed Ex. Had brim trimmed earlier by Schafer Hat works. Below is condition it arrived in.

looks like they did a good job from these pics, how do you like their work?

I just recently learned that Shorty's is the hatter for legendary wrestling commentator Jim Ross.

Thanks Hector. If that made you hungry it's probably a good thing I didn't put up photos of the big pastrami on rye sandwich I made for lunch, with the pastrami I smoked last week. And the big chunk of smoked cheddar on the side that I did the week before. Ha ha.

Michael

Looks great Michael ! I was waiting to see that Rueben too ! Sounds delicious.

I don’t know if I could pull it off, but you look absolutely FANTASTIC! I might have to give this a try.

Thanks... it's a heavy lift for me with a small head, as are some of my larger western hats. But it's a fun hat to wear and the only beret I have that is large enough to shade the sun or keep rain off my face.
