What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Steve1857]

It's Fez Friday folks. This one is an @steur creation which I love to wear of an evening. Thanks Stefan!
Have a great weekend FL'ers!

Beater Eddie Bauer Open Road while cutting the fields at the Maj. Gen Nathanael Greene Homestead today.

Hahaha!
I meant the way he died in the book, not in real life. At the end of the third and last book in the series, "Le Vicomte de Bragelonne", in the siege of Maastrich, a bullet from the castle strikes the wooden case carrying his Marshall of France baton and kills him.
His last words are: "Athos and Porthos, I will see you soon. Aramis, goodbye forever."

I have read all the books several times, and reread passages of them often. I don't really like Dumas' other books much, though.

Dude, spoilers!

Fishing the East Walker River...unexpected downpour made me grateful for my choice of hat: Stratton Lawman Milan.

Soaked to the skin above my waders, but the Stratton shrugged it off like a champ.

This was taken during cooler weather from last year but I was wearing it around some today. I would say that this '50s era RD Stetson Homburg conversion was an easy one but it was a little more involved than just a simple reflanging. All in all it's a really nice hat and you can't beat the color. Other than reflanging the brim the hat is all original and intact, except for the keyhole size tag.

Like the hat and the smoke. What’s the temp out there in West Texas? It’s hotter than Hell here in the Hill Country.

Good looking hat Brent... though I think my stomach might be in knots if I saw it coming up from the rear view mirror. The stache is coming along nicely.

Whatever today decided to throw out. Bright hot sun.. misty rain .. flash downpour this old Mallory felt took in stride.

I really dig that one Brent. Great color combo, and suits you just right.

Nice Michael! I like these old tourers. I need to convert mine into a gravel bike. Nice cap/mask combo as well.

Cool. What sort of old tourer do you have? Since I was more or less born and raised on gravel riding I like the idea. Don't know if I have the strength for it anymore.

Nice Michael. That’s a cool mask, love the Cannondale. Mine is a ‘97 M-300 that I bought in’97. Stay cool.

Thanks Alan. The mask is one I made the other day. I finally got around to looking up the date code on the bike and it was made in 1993. I found the old catalog for that year too. Seems it was a custom order job as most of the components match the T1000 spec rather than the T700. Sadly it was missing the original Brooks saddle. I did a little more cleaning on it this morning and listing out the components to compare with the catalog. And was wearing this old Ranchcraft while I was doing that.

Then I switched back to my mesh Stetson flat cap and got out for another 30 mile ride.

1985 Schwinn Voyageur SP. Factory spec except for pedals, Brooks saddle, and Bruce Gordon racks.

I like the build on your “modern” Cannondale.

Shifters on the down tube where they belong! Nice.

Only the guilty have need to fear...something you want to tell us?

Haha... guilty or not blue lights in your rear view make your heart skip a beat. LOL

That looks like a very cool bike, Bob. Hope the build goes well.

Janyška, possibly late 1930s early 1940s. The felt is really nice (light weight) and easily dry creases. Really like the form. This one is from my May 2016 NOS Czech find.
