Happy National Hat Day, fellow loungers!


ca. 1935 Real Nutria Stetson

Pre-war and nutria: fitting for such a festive day! Excellent, Jared.

Thanks, Joe. That's because you can't see the Animals (let alone the dark side of the moon)

So it’s National Hat Day and MLK’s and my birthday.

Seems like a good day to be wearing one of Mike Moore’s great westerns.

Preserving the breed is the main focus for Pineywoods breeders.

Interesting lesson about the cattle, Randy. Are they raised for the beef market, or more as novelty beeves to preserve the breed?
A suitable hat for working the cattle too.

I have a Royal Coachman and always wondered where if fell in their grade levels.

Thanks! No different than Stetson with all the "Royal" designation.[emoji1]

Actually Dobbs used the Golden Coach designation to market their highest quality fur felt offerings at the time. I don't know if that's the case these days, but back in the period that's what it meant.

Excellent rendering, Randall. Steve is a superhero, but we all knew that!

Has anyone seen this superhero?
I’ve heard that he spends a lot of time on this forum.

Cannot be a coincidence that there a quite a number of Pink Floyd fans over here. Been a fan for as long as I can remember. After The Wall though their efforts were not as powerful. There just no band that comes close to albums like Meddle, Dark side of the moon, Wish you were here, Animals and The Wall in a row. Waters may be a bit of a d..k, but, man, could he write some awesome music (and lyrics). Seen the Floyd a couple of times and Gilmour and Waters too. Something to remember alright.

Stetson Temple in Mink, not sure if @Bamaboots will approve the shark skin ones

Happy to see you around, Rodolfo, boots and all. Sharkskin’s a great material for boots. You’re ever get to Leon to visit bookmakers.

Going to be a Playboy today.
Thank you to all for the likes and compliments on the superhero rendering of our local superhero. Thankfully, for national hat day no one’s hat needed a laser blast from the indomitable Hatman’s umbrella.
Everyone looked great in their celebratorial
lids!

Today a tribute to homburg made in France

Antonin France Chapeau de Luxe size 61 cm. or 7 3/8 US

The hat was made with light and malleable felt

Unlined and with a single patch inside the crown it is probably a hat from the 1940s or 1950s

No paper label determines the felt color or type.
It's one of my favorites for proportions, but it's just a matter of taste

Thanks for your likes on the Borsalino Argento and for the appreciation of the Barbisio find showed yesterday

Great homburg! And always smiling. Gotta love it.

I was out in the -6'f (-21 C) weather wearing a 1930 spiral weave fedora. I discovered that this spiral weave is a better warmer weather hat. Brrrr.

Best, Eric -
