What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Bamaboots]

Likely one of the last of it's kind, 60's Stetson 7X CB. All photos taken at the same time, same lighting but significant color changes.

Thanks, HJ. It has quickly become a favorite.

Ahh...so that’s where that one lives now.
Gorgeous!

Thank you, gents. Yes, as I said previously, I just happened to catch Bill in a moment of weakness and he's let me be the caretaker of this one for a while...a very long while!

Gorgeous hat, Randy. I really like that ribbon and the shallow brim flange.

Excellent hat, Greg. I've managed to pick up a great Strat, 25, and 100 in the last few months and the 7X CB is now very high on my "get list". Always glad to see another great example here in the Lounge.

I know right away when it's an Adrián, @Miamibruno hat on ebay. The angle the picture is taken in, the background, the quality...
I've had him on my saved searches for a while now. Besides, always a fair price, always shipped promptly, always an expert and honest description, and he speaks Spanish.

I just wish he listed more 7 1/4s and 7 3/8s.

It's because he wears a 7 1/4. [emoji16]

My error this morning - it is a Playboy not a Stratoliner. Thanks for the catch.

Great hat either way, Eric.

Thanks, RM. I'm fortunate enough to have a couple of them. The other is a 50's era with the LD liner. IMO, the felt and finish of these hats rival the 100's made during the same time frames in as far as the felt, finish and appointments go. Just didn't come with the fancy cases. I'll keep my eyes open for you as well, especially since we're not the same size.

Wow! What an expansive hat! Love the ribbon and crease.

Thanks Mike. Good for rain or shine!

You are a new super hero - Plaid Man! What super powers do you bring to the snow shovel? Love that furry hat, always a treat to see.

Thanks Red. They call this stuff shadow plaid, and I kind of like the sound of Shadow Plaid Man. Ha ha. The snow was a lot heavier and stickier this time and the snow shovel nearly wrestled me into submission.

Well suited is the right description, Michael. You never did find out what critter the hat was made out of, did you?

Thanks Stefan. Never did figure it out by web searching and it's not like there is a furrier in every town anymore.

Another American one that deserved some headtime. Adam.

Another great hat and outfit pairing. Looks like you could use a little sunshine over there?

Thanks,
Michael

It’s good to see you posting again. We had a mutual acquaintance years ago in my neighborhood hatter Gary White.

Ah, yes. Gary ended up making 5 hats for me. I'll post my favorite one here soon. Do you know how Gary is? Still making hats?

Borsalino Albino today (after the withdrawal of yesterday's meltdown).

I like this color. I believe it could compliment most any clothing worn. Can you think of any colors of clothing it does not go with?

Steur, you are a parade of perfect lids!

Had our Valentine date tonight as I will be working on Valentine's Day. Who am I kidding, we never go out on Valentine's Day. We always go out before or after to avoid the crowds.

VS for me tonight.

My date at the restaurant.

I really like that hat band! The colors look great with the hat, which is also very nice.

Thanks Ed!

Chamuco, you're there about a month early for the Pac-12 Men's Tournament.

I can always come back my friend!!
