What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Did a little more steam work on the new Borsalino Pocket Hat

Sometimes it's grey, some times it's taupe and some times it's olive.

Still a ways to go, but it's getting closer.

The tip tag is showing some wear, but says Quality Extra Superior. The paper label says Carla, Elefante, Bacosan. At least that's what I think it says.

Have a good day,

Looking great ! That would be a great one to have for motorcycle rides. Easy to carry in the bags.
I’ll have to see If I can find one.

Thought we were all done with the shopping, both food and gifts, and was planning on a nice relaxing day today working on some hats....
But no, the wife ran out of flour and sugar with all her baking so I have to brave the crowds. Taking the Portis Silver Beaver with me.





I HATE WALMART !!!!!!

Looking good. Steam will do the job for sure. I have hats that I steamed over 20 times to bring them back to life. Usually I steam, shape, and let it rest for a day. Next day I do all over, and so on until I achieve the desired result.

Looking good Michael.

My first time wearing my Young's Senator today. Brushed it, lint-rollered it, brushed it again, and steamed it. It shines!
Bought it from Will Moul.

I assume you mean "very", 'cause I'm not wet.

Absolutely gorgeous, Rodolfo. Those colours are spectacular together.

Spectacular indeed, very good work from the guys at Stetson.

Very nice, love that BGG color from Akubra. I’ve been thinking about a Banjo Paterson, how do you like the quality ?

Very nice, love that BGG color from Akubra. I’ve been thinking about a Banjo Paterson, how do you like the quality ?

I love Akubras, have never got any issues and have more than 20 Akubras.

I really like the Banjo, overall a great hat, more city style, shorter brim than the CP, great traveler hat, the quality is the best that Akubra has "The Heritage Collection" .

The only issue with the banjo is with the shades, I have one in Heritage Fswn and one in Graphite Grey, love the Fawn one, but somehow I found the Graphite to lack personality, it's like a stained black shade, like real wood charcoal.

But that's just me, most people like the Graphite, I tend to like dark colors that have more deep on them.

You won't be disappointed, may I suggest you try Sam at Everything Australian or the girls at The Hattery, both have outstanding customer service.

Regards.

Rodolfo

I’ll have to see If I can find one.

It's coming along. I'm not sure I would want to put it in my pocket and straighten it out again. Cool looking Portis you took shopping today. I managed to avoid the store, though I may not be able to avoid Walmart tomorrow.

Looking good. Steam will do the job for sure. I have hats that I steamed over 20 times to bring them back to life. Usually I steam, shape, and let it rest for a day. Next day I do all over, and so on until I achieve the desired result.

Thanks Hector. It's relaxing pretty well with the steam. It'll get there.

That looks like a great color, Max. Love that old block, too. i have a Portis that is shaped a lot like that, though not in nearly as fine of a condition.
