What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[hatophile]

Thanks Perry. I can say the same about your Wekony. Great shirt and jacket combo today, too.

Thanks,
Michael

Thank you sir.

Thanks Joe. That last Stetson you showed is a real gem.

Thank you Michael!

Yesterday's outside chores had hard working in a Tilley. When I got really hot I dunked it into water. No worse for the wear.

This morning was it was a black Warren for a dog soiree.

A morning walkabout in an un-lined Stetson Playboy. Not the usual ribbon treatment, but all original Playboy.

Be safe, be strong and see you on the streets soon, Eric -

It's rare we see you in a black hat, Eric. I like it, but then I like the unlined Stetson even better.

Very cool, Perry. Unusual for such a light hat to have a thin black ribbon.

After French week closed it is onward to their neighbours: Germany! This may take quite a few weeks, but who cares?
We'll start off with this one (just because it sat on top).

Very cool Randall. Was this original ribbon or one of your creations

Thanks, Joe. Original.
I’m guessing this hat was built soon after the buyout, but before the onion skins. If anyone knows better, from the few pics provided, I’d like to know.

Excellent hat, Randall.

Very cool, Perry. Unusual for such a light hat to have a thin black ribbon.

Thanks Stefan, that's what I liked about it.

 

[Hagwood]

That is a beautiful felt.

THAT, is one beautiful hat, bro.
Shaped perfectly and the color is stunning.

That really is a striking colour, Tim. So cool.

Thanks guys, it has quickly become a favorite, but one that I will have to be careful wearing to make sure it doesn't get dirty.....

Spring lasts about three weeks here, but it’s glorious while it lasts.

Nice hat and history Brent.

Green with empathy...

One of the facets of collecting vintage hats that intrigues me is the memory of stores past, imprinted for posterity on the leather sweatband. I wonder how many of my hats (I have quite a few) were sold in stores that are still in existence today? Or were in existence a month ago? Off the top of my head I can think of two - one is a hat pulled out to wear today.

I later switched to this Mallory:

Wonderful Alan. I'm the same way on the stores. Anytime I get a new hat I immediately start researching the store and saving old pictures to keep a file with the hats.

Visone = mink, though whether in feel or felt composition (or both) I do not know.

There's a thread for that...
