What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

I haven’t pretended to know a whole lot about fedoras compared to most FL guys.
I’ve learned a few things on my own while blindly going about the simple side of hatting over a period of thirty some years, but have learned much more from threads written by members of the FL in just three months.
I am very happy to have found this forum and the folks who frequent it.
I was a lonely fedora bum before coming here. Now I’m a fedora bum...with friends, and access to loads of hat information.
Wish I could learn how to find it all on here. Still haven’t completely figured this
e-place out.

I really meant ribbon Sensei, Randall. The Coronet was very cool.
(I had to edit. Autocorrect called it a coroner)

Borsalino Qualitá Speciale today. It's somewhat unusual colour is represented by Borsalino's name for it "Ontano". I believe it refers to the colour of the bark of the alder tree.
I'm grateful yet again to the Dutchman for finding this one with me in mind.
Thanks, Stefan [emoji145]

Well this beauty arrived yesterday. And here she is right outta the box with no cleaning up at all. Been wearing it all day. Don’t want to take it off. Think I am in love!![emoji7]

Penny’s Marathon

2a8aa0102f0b4828afe854c4fad64973.plist


Color light tan

Size 7 fits perfectly [emoji108]

Brim 2 5/8

About 4 1/2 crown as creased

1 1/16 matching ribbon with very cool shark gills pattern

Matching trim on brim

The beautiful tan felt is thin soft and moldable. While not the same... this is about as close as I’ve come across to the felt of my Dobbs gay prince.

Thanks Brent!
The ribbon has been on it for a couple years now, the original was brown. I wasn't a fan of the brown on grey when I found the hat years before, so it went through a few ribbons before I made this one. Now, even though I love the blue on grey combo, I wish I still had the original...
If you swap out again, John, I'll take that ribbon off your hands.
I have a long hair, oatmeal Dobbs 25 that arrived with a felt self ribbon before l learned to appreciate one. I removed it, and have yet to replace it. Two purchases of vintage Grosgrain arrived Petersham. Then my focus moved on. That is the color I was aiming at, though.

I can see why you look like the cat that got the cream, Joe. That is indeed one you wouldn't want to take off. Well, not until the next beauty came along [emoji4].
