What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[mayserwegener]

"NEUHEIT" "SPITZENKLASSE" "EXTRA FEIN" Velour, possibly 1930s. I haven't worn this one in awhile but it's one my favorites. Really interesting liner design with reeded pipping. I can't say for sure but I have a strong feeling it was made by Friedrich Steinberg Herrmann & Co. Hutfabrik Luckenwalde / STECO.

Here you can see the exposed reed used in the liner pipping.

Again and again: wonderful hat, Steve! In fact, so much depends on experience (and you have a lot of it!), so that you get a feel for things and then you can't explain some of them (you often read that in Daniele's posts, for example) . With this “very likely STECO” I can even understand the feeling...

Unbelievably bright orange sky at sunrise here this morning. Tried to take a good picture, but by the time I threw on the Open Road and got out there it was starting to fade. Went from totally orange to this in about 30 seconds. Its was almost a "flash" Oh well it was cool. Have been playing with a new phone lately and discovered it has a lot of photo editing options the old one didnt have. My favorite is the "Blur Background" one... it can really change the view

And once again I didnt notice the wind cord out of place before pictures lol Suppose I need to snug this one up a bit. Hazard of storing the hats upside down on the rack I guess!

It's been a while since I wore my unlined Playboy. It's cold outside but at least the sun is shining.

A couple beautiful hats today.

 

[DonR]

A new to me 50s Stetson 3X Rocking JB with 3-1/2" brim. Very near mint condition.
I'll shortly see how my wife feels about it. She doesn't care for "cowboy" hats.

Maybe you could convince her that the ladies can wear something akin to cowboy hats.

I have been enjoying all of the great hats y'all have posted. This is the first place I go to in the morning to get my hat fix and I try to add to the conversation when I can. My latest is this Portis Tissue Weight with Swans Down Finish. I've had it since Monday but haven't felt like posting pictures...just content to hit the Like button on all y'alls hats.
* back story is I fell on the ice Sunday and broke my arm. Surgeon patched large bone in my forearm back together with steel plates and screws and luckily my wrist was intact. Last few days Percocet was my little buddy every 4 hours, just like clock work. This morning the swelling is starting to subside and Ibuprofen is pain reliever of choice along with the NSAID benefits.

Wow Tim. Sorry to hear it. Glad they got you pinned back together. Hope you get healed up soon.
