What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[deadlyhandsome]

Are you serious or...?

Completely serious. I love green hats. In truth, I like just about every color.

Ah okay, i thought you didn't like green hats just like Stefan
Ik also like the color green, but it has to be dark (green). ;-)

There aren’t many colors or shades thereof that I don’t like.

Me neither. But red hats are not looking great on me i think.

Red can be tough. He’s my Agnoulita in the color wine in antelope/suede finish.

I like the color, but it’s not the most versatile.

But it is one of the most eye catching. You pull it off excellently Brent, especially with that choice of shirt to go with it.

It highlights the hat, and plays down its "fanciness".

We decided to go ahead with a barbecue yesterday as the weather appeared to be holding out despite the forecast. Unfortunately, the rain settled in soon after we started. I wore my Akubra Cattleman to start. It kept my head dry as I tended the barbecue, but when it got so soaked that water started running off it into the food, I swapped it out for my Akubra Snowy River.

The food? Four different homemade rubs…

Top left to right: Jerk rub for ribs, lime herb rub for stuffed pork tenderloin.
Bottom left to right: Sweet rub for ribs and the latest incarnation of my Texas Ninja rub; salt, loads of pepper, loads of sansho and some powdered soy sauce.

The lords hat looks at home on your head. Cool.

Sharp Cavanagh sir.

My hats for the week first was the Scala Classico when I thought we were having a cooler day. Today I decided not quite cool enough for felt so I wore my Dockers paper straw

A hat for every situation. Well done.

Green Panizza today! View attachment 456380 View attachment 456381 View attachment 456382

Green for the win! The sweat band makes it wear light I bet.

Thanks for sharing your hats! The hat showcase on this thread benefits from your expansive hat rack.

Thanks for your likes these days.
Today a medium quality hat sold in France and, perhaps, "disguised" as English. Patterson - Pure fur felt.

This says the mold inside the crown. The paper label, printed in French, says the color is "Shetland Auburn"
View attachment 456427
A color, auburn, which I often found in the colors of French hats and very little in the English ones.
View attachment 456428
However it is a heather coppery felt of excellent quality, finished well and with classic proportions.
View attachment 456429
it's part of a chance find in France where a variety of hats moved to Verona

Have a nice Sunday

Totally enjoy the heathered felts you show sir. I had to google up Auburn to get a better idea of a description of the hue. Reddish-brown are prominent. I find the spectrum of Auburn hues to be interesting. Especially at this time of the year as I see it in the changing leaves.

Thanks for sharing.

You are definitely the best hatted forester in the country, Eric.

Your Gannons are always a joy to behold, but that blue mist beaver Playboy is in a league of its own. The spiral stitched 30s Fedora is cooly unique.

Thanks for continuing to share your outstanding hat collection, sir.

Thanks the hat compliments sir.

All beautiful Eric—do you recall what block Michael used for the Steel Gray? Would it be enough to reference “Eric’s Wanderers” to get the same?

Thanks,

David

David, Michael will indeed know the dimensions of the Wanderer. Since I am, as my moniker indicates, short in stature, the crown height may need to adjusted for yourself.

Thanks, Steve. Don't really know who the maker was of this one. It's one of those German brands that are a mystery.


Gorgeous selection as always, Eric. The spiral stitch hat stands out in this batch.


Beautiful. Love that colour.

Thanks sir. The spiral stitch was an aquisition from Garret. He has some of the absolutely finest vintage fedoras.

Vintage Whippet for services this morning.

I imagine that you continue to be the hat style setter at your services on Sundays. Sharp as a tack!

Stetson St. Regis converted to a whippet style for me by a fellow lounger. To my taste it has perfect fedora dimensions and shape.

Cheers,

David

Yesterday I visited my neighbors wearing the Dobbs Leisure Light. It is difficult to capture the glorious black felt of this vintage hat. Here is yesterdays attempt.

Up and about way too early I wore a Stetson Bantam (blue felt) to the grocery store. Hey who forgot to get eggs, milk and cream? Duh!

My hat for an early morning walkabout was inspired by the Dobbs Leisure Light - a Dobbs Coachman (inky blue felt hue).

I managed some yard efforts under the brim of an unlined Playboy.

Cheers, Eric -

My first Hornskov of the season for a visit to the outlet shopping mall. A beaver bunny western weight blend in stone with a dusty rose ribbon.

I’m still not entirely comfortable in a cattleman crease and may well change it on this hat.
The Hornskov is not a hat for driving. In the car I went for this cap from The British Millerain Co.

 

[Who?]

Have you tried open crown on that hat?
