What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Wearing my latest Western refurb project, 4X Resistol in tan. I sized up this small Western from a 6 7/8 to a 7 1/4 on a custom block by Randal Alan. The hat originally had a 4 inch brim width but I had to sacrifice that with the size up. I was able to trim it to a 3 1/2 brim, though. It also sports a new 1/2 ribbon with an OR style bow, and obviously, a new sweat. I'll have more later in the Conversion Corral...

My review for Randal Alan's block....I'm very happy with it. He nailed the profile and the measurements I wanted, perfectly.

After my wife's brother passed away in December we inherited his cat. She's become my shadow and follows me everywhere...

Fantastic ! Those Mac's are hard to come by, even under a different name. Very nice of you Brent !
When I saw his post about the hat I had messaged him to see what he wanted for it. I figured it would be too rich for my blood and thinking it might be perfect for you Tim. When he said he was sending it my way my jaw hit the floor. Truly blown away.

Nice one Michael. Gotta love those Knox Twenty's !
Thanks Tim. They are a nice hat. Your Borsalino today is one super sweet hat. Dang.

Now that is cool Michael, coming from someone who loves the National Parks. Love that hatband.
Yes, it is a cool one. I was happy to find this a couple of years ago. It came with the traditional ranger hat peak creases, but I prefer it open crown.

Thanks,
Michael
