What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Randall Renshaw]

Have to say goodbye to my restored Turf Club. Someone who has never hung out here really wants it more than me, if all goes as planned.
Figured I’d post for its most likely last time.
Guy actually wants about 6 of my best collectibles. Then more come spring. Didn’t really want to sell any of my personal hats at this time, but hey, the profit is really good.

As Terry said, kinda damp here in our area today.

BGGCD to ward off the drizzle and evacuate the canine.

Last night, out for beers with the church boys in my latest, a Dobbs Gay Prince.

Looking good in both, Jim. Love the stitching on the Gay Prince.

 

[Steve1857]

Nice couple of Big Hats, fellas!

+ 1 on that Perry

 

[BobHufford]

Awesome!

Thanks Terry!

 

[Steve1857]

Thanks Perry! Rick wears it better.

Don't be modest now, Bob. You both wear them well.

Thanks Steve!

December 1st means the return of the hairy green Dobbs with Improved Felted Welt Edge (another WWII era roundel liner crest hat):

Of all my hats this one is the hardest to accurately capture the color, my phone camera always struggles. The green is rather muted due to the rainy, overcast skies today.

 

[Rumad]

Because it’s raining, the SBCD. What else?

 

[Rmccamey]

Surely you have a good beater around the place, Terry

Wearing my revamped Bradford Western again today.

Later I'll be wearing a ball cap to take the dog out since we're getting all day rain here in the Central part of the Buckeye State. I'll save my good hats and post my drenched ball cap in the 'Hats Surviving the Elements' thread.

It's a miracle! Or an impostor. No way "pork pie" Rick could be under a 10 Gallon!

I call this one The Big Gus

Muted sure looks great on you, Jonathan.
Great lookin hat, bro!

I know, I know… I swerved way out of my lane!

Yessir buddy! I do have a few good beaters. I call them, ballcaps! A guy's gotta have a ball cap every now and then for special occasions, like for Ohio State football games. Although, I put my Ohio State ball cap back in the closet when they lost to Michigan again for the third time in a row. So now my Ohio State caps are going to be beater caps since they can't beat Michigan!

Well, one thing's sure. You need more Westerns. Nothing wrong with pork pies, but you do rock the Cowboy hats!

Friday Magill Imperial

I got caught in the rain

Christy's, Knightsbridge, Fur Felt, Sage, 57
Nice color and nice feeling of the fur at touch. The hat feels firmly and with quality made. Very happy with this new acquisition of mine.

30’s Stetson Standard

Knox Twenty.

As seems to happen all too often, I went diving into the boxes looking for a particular hat, only to open one and think, "When the heck did I buy this?!"

Canadian Premier Stetson; a Wanderer-type hat.

Not certain of the exact date of this hat, but I have it nailed down to sometime after Christ was born...

Probably more of a "Spring"-colored hat, but wearing a new-to-me Lamson Hubbard Pastel that I rescued from an antique mall. It's got a few bites and the ubiquitous green stain, but it's super-comfortable and I like it. Note the unusual band stitching on the outside of the hat-- is this normal???
