What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Hurricane Jack]

The brim up works well for that straw by the way, Jack.

Thanks Stefan. When new the brim break wasn't even squared up at 90 degrees & the sides had way too much fender for me, so I had to take care of all that to get it the way I wanted it.

View attachment 249884 Y’all might remember the times I bemoaned the want and lack of a Dobbs Hanover Square.
Well, a few weeks back I won one from eBay. It was a very clean late 50s model in the ubiquitous colors of gray and black. Also, the crown was a bit squatty for my taste, so I reluctantly resold it making only a few bucks.
The very next week I was blessed to nab another, yet cheaper, late 50s Hanover, except this time with more interesting colors and a taller, prouder crown making me one very Squared away dude. View attachment 249883 View attachment 249885

Congrats on the second Dobbs Hanover Square find, Randall. I really like the proportions. Looks good on you too, buddy.

This one doesn't get enough wear.

Definitely deserves more wear, Stefan. A very stylish all round look, my friend.

Thanks a lot, Steve! I really like it, but can’t seem to stop wearing my new 50s beige Borsalino.
That thing is a beaut! No sense in me looking for a better hat...but HAS will have its own way, I suppose.

Another nice one! I like the contrasting wind string color.

The Borsa is a real beaut too, Randall, but as you so rightly say, HAS has us

That's a very fine hat, Max.

Definitely deserves more wear, Stefan. A very stylish all round look, my friend.

Thank you, Steve. It's all workwear (how nice is that if you can wear that to work?!)

Another nice one! I like the contrasting wind string color.

Thanks, Randall. The windstring is more like the felt colour and the button is the colour of the ribbon (actually Mike Miller matched the button with a new ribbon).

Nice comparison, Joe. Not much between them by the looks of it. On the surface the Adam seems to have a finer finish.

The Dobbs got me to pull the Adam back out and realize it needs a lot more wear. (The Stetson Standard Quality and the Borsalino Ludoita feel a bit more special occasion)

Stetson Stratoliner in walnut was my hat for today.

Thanks, Michael. Your Hanover Square had me rummaging in the attic looking for the blue one.

You should be storing that one in a safe.

Nice. I had a Ghia once, Karmen Ghia.

Very nice, Michael. I like the straightforward design of that one.




Another winner. Really like the look of it.

Thanks Stefan.

Yesterday afternoon,
"Cow Lot" private label (probably Resistol) Beaver Fifty......OR Clone....It is really thin felt, and I pulled the liner (which is kept safe of course...) so, good for warmer days. (While I really do have some nice hemp and straw hats....I REALLY prefer wearing felt!!!
