It's hip to be square.

I love that one, Jim! One of my favorite hats. I wish I could find one in my size.

Not only for Winter. My vintage Nutria started out as a "Oppenheimer" style hat.

I would honestly love to have more vintage Nutria hats to add to my collection...

Even though it was a Western the felt is also thin and light enough to be a fedora for Spring and Summer wear. I really like these vintage Nutrias.

There was so much energy radiating from his brain it warped the felt!

That's one good-looking nutria fedora, T. You can resurrect, refurbish, reconstruct and convert just about anything.

View attachment 371455 MaxLachlan Golden Beaver Hundred. The X was unintentional, but since it took two months to have the hat restored by Optimo, and we cleaned it, replaced the ribbon, reblocked it, and duplicated the crest in the new sweatband, I decided to leave it.

Beautiful Max! Optimo did a great job on that one.

Wonderful Hückel velour, Steve.

Steve, Thank you! Super to see your Willoughby Velour in action. I am very happy for the beginng of Velour season! The King of all finishes.

 

[mayserwegener]

Steve; Man you got some hats! I tune in and pause with your posts. The uniqueness of the felts, hats, shapes, hues and of course the juicy details. I appreciate your hat passion. Thanks for my daily fix with today's Seal Velour. That is quite a felt.

Cheers, Eric -

Eric, Thank you! Your collection is fantastic! This thread brings a smile to my face everyday. You are a main reason.

Hard to beat those hats, gentlemen.

New in just arrived from Wosfbrae Custom Hatters (@belfastboy). It is silverbelly, 160gr Ukrainian rabbit felt, suede finish. 2 7/8" raw brim, 6" open crown with top crown and side venting, and unlined with bright copper grosgrain ribbon, and neutral brim binding. I’m digging it.

Thank you, D! I wish I had a few more of these old nutrias. I don't know about the newer ones but the old vintage ones were really nice.

Lol, it sure did.

First, a big thank you to all those who have been giving me positive comments and like lately. I don't acknowledge those things enough and it's appreciated.

Second, y'all been knocking it out of the park lately. Great hats, and special mentions for Joe and Steve.

I'd give Eric a nod, too, but I don't want it to go to his Short Balding Head!!

I keed, i keed.

A little change of pace for me. anton Peschel from West Germany. A super nice velour and Stefan's favorite color!

Happy Friday!!!

Keeping autumn in the back of my mind (see it in there?!) the Lee Gold Quality today.
Thank you all for having my back…

Have the best weekend ever!

Oil change day for the wife’s Cherokee. I thought it proper to wear my “ get the ‘ell out of my way” hat from Phoenix(@humanshoes). Maybe they will get me finished sooner!!

Edit: must have worked! Finished and on the way to lunch! Woohoo!

Early morning dog soirre in a Stetson Playboy. I do love the blue-ish ribbon treatment of this gray hat.

The morning temps were around 26'f (-3'c) and a warm jacket was needed.

Up before the sunrise and started a fire. What a luxury to enjoy the ambiance of a safe wood fire. It appears big, but no more wood will be added as I want it to burn to coals. I am planning to fix brunch for my wife and I on the coals.

Coffee and a fire - mornings are terrific. I have been attired in a Stetson St.Regis (black with a stunning gold interior).

Cheers, Eric -

Love the Playboys…. But something special about the St Regis in black.
