What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[The Lost Cowboy]

First time I’ve had to wear a suit in a long time. Paired it with a 2 3/8 brim Gannon.

Looking good!

That shirt and tie look like my alma mater’s colors, orange and blue. You’re not a Florida Gator are you? (Could just be the way the colors display on my screen).

Love the 2-3/8 brim!

Second hat for me today is another cap!!

This guy just arrived. Not bespoke or anything unique, but I did a write-up in the Sterkowski thread if anyone is interested. This model is a 100% linen ‘Vigo’.

sterkowski caps

That's a brand used to be talked about round here a lot, but has sort of disappeared from visibility. Nice to see they are still around - I have one of their eight panel caps somewhere I got years ago, quite enjoyed the fact it had a wire in the peak so it could be shaped. These always looked...

Mallory did produce quite the whippet clone on the 1950s

I have a couple of Whippet-esque hats. I try to do a pseudo-Whippet Wednesday every once in a while. I’d love to see a Mallory Whippet clone if you have one. I have a Disney sort-of-Whippet running around here somewhere, maybe I’ll try to dig it out.

Ha—sorry no, just some color for the spring.

Wearing this fine whopper-jawed and wrinkled up Dobbs 20 again today. I'm still debating on whether or not to smooth out the open crown and redoing the crease. I may do that sometime down the road. For now, I'm leaving it as is. I kinda like it this way. The felt, the color, the snap brim, all is still in great shape, except for the sweat, which I'll eventually replace.

I love you just the way you are—was that Barry Manilow???

I didn’t really think so - was more of a joke. But yeah, nice color choices - Gator approved!

BTW, Billy Joel’s song “Just the Way You Are” (or is it called, “Don’t Go Changing”?) has that line in it. Great song.

I’ve got a few Mallory with Whippety proportions. I’ll get some pics.

"As is", that's the way I'm liking it too, (for now).

Google says it was Billy Joel.

This morning I chose another one of my light weight unlined fedoras. This one is a Supreme XXXX Quality by Schoble, always a pleasure to wear !

Very cool, David, thanks! And aristocratic quality, as well - does it have any feel of wool to it?

Great looking Mallory, David.

No—very much like a Royal Stetson, standard felt hat from the era, easy to shape but not remarkable.

Great looking Mallory, David.

Thanks Joe!
