What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Dlaniger]

Sunscreen? Mexicans don't need no steenking sunscreen!

Well at least wear a mask and practice social distancing, Doctor! LOL

 

[Randall Renshaw]

Wearing my latest hat project. I completely reworked this Melton. The hat sports a taller straight crown with a 2 5/8 bound snap brim. It's creased in my preferred Teardrop with a tight pinch.

I sewed on a new brim binding with a black 1 1/2 ribbon and bow. I gave the bow a slight upward swoop.

Awesome rebuild, Terry! I like the colors, too. Crown’s perfect!

On the 7th Day of StingyMas...

View attachment 291281

1950s Stetson 3X Beaver Quality - Steel Grey
6 inch open crown - rakish 5 to 4 inch as shaped
1 7/8 Black Grosgrain Ribbon with Boxcar Bow treatment.
2 1/8 brim with 1/8 accented bound edge

The 2 1/8 brim on this 1950s Stetson 3X Beaver Quality may be stingy... but the crown at about 6 inches open certainly is not! With these proportions the crown was looking a bit stovepipe like. It seems whenever I pick this one up I’m working the crown wider and down a bit. It has a cool boxcar bow ribbon treatment. The steel grey felt has some blue tones to it and is a similar feel to my same period whippet.

Killer Stingy, Joe! Love the tall, square crown!
And thanks to you and @Steve1857 for the comments on my new blue Stetson.

Next week we need to go big, real big, and make it a big brim week!

Another great refurb, Terry.

Thank you buddy! I sure like that Stetson you're wearing!

 

[Blare]

Joe, Thank you! Your Stetson "3X Beaver Quality" is fantastic! I really like the Bow design. Also wears great!

Thank you Steve.

Here is my StingyMas contribution. Its the smallest felt brim I own. It looks bigger somehow in this photo but it is 2 inches. I may have to use this same phone to take photos of the fish I catch if it makes 'em look bigger. A Resistol with a kitten finish.

I was planning to join the Stingyness with one of my Christys’ trilbies but neither of them worked with what I was wearing. I was, however, happy to don my Brummel’s homburg that came to me from Stefan. I don’t wear this hat often, but it is right up there vying for number one in my collection.

My wife, Etsuko, is in a Maxim as usual.

My Kevin McAndrew Western refurb from yesterday, and I'm wearing it again today.

Still strictly stuck in stingies, Custom Hatter of Buffalo... Enjoy the day!!

It is green and is one of the latest purchases, so the series of greens continues before Christmas.

Barbisio Classic size 59 cm. or 7 3/8 US.

The color of the felt is "Soana" The valley which lies below the Gran Paradiso, north-west of Sagliano Micca, the place of production of the company founded by the Barbisio family in 1862.

The felt is of medium consistency and can be easily modeled without the use of steam.
The shape and styling is the one in vogue in the Fifties when they looked for alternatives to the classic hat in Italian production, even if this had already been done before World War II.

The finishes, as always in historical Barbisio, are of the highest quality

I want to thank all those who expressed their appreciation yesterday and today for the French and Italian hats I showed. Have a nice Sunday

Good morning. Yesterday afternoon was outside chore time. I wore a Cordova Cap (Carhart material) work cap. I wore ear protection tipped so that the band was on the back of my head and it worked great.

My morning dog soirée in a Stetson Whippet in pine green.

Home and sipping coffee appreciating the results of my labors yesterday while wearing a Lee Desert Tones fedora.

Cheers, Eric -

Hey all!
They say every black cloud has a silver lining. Not so with black hats, although some, like this Lee, have a Silver Label.

Birds of a feather... many thanks.

You must wash your hands (again) before you don that one, Max. Don’t wear it in the operatory! Patients will drool excessively!
