What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[ETBass]

It does indeed suit you, Ernest. I particularly like the shape of it. A western homburg, I'd say.

Thanks @Steve1857 . I kinda thought it looked western too.

 

[Steve1857]

Thanks Joe.

Heck yeah Steve!

 

[Bill Hughes]

Richman Brothers for work tonight. I’ve been telling myself I need to sell this one for over a year. Just having a hard time pulling the trigger.

 

[The Shoe]

I like it. Looks good on you Ernest

Thanks Joe. I did not know if it would suit me but I like it.

I third Joe & Steve’s comments. Very cool!

The new ribbon works really well with the Big Knox, Terry.

Fun video. Buster should have invited his cousin Earl along to accompany him on the banjo ;-)

Greetings All:
Today...back in black. If i had to sell all my hats but one, this one would probably be the keeper. It’s not the highest quality finger felt nor one that creases with just a thought. Far from it. But it is one that i feel that feeling when a hat is just right for you and speaks to who you are in a hat. It doesn’t say “hey look at me” it says “hey this is me”. It’s not the dollars or the elusive museum piece, it’s just...”the hat” that says your name.
Stetson Nutria Quality...the Bowen.

Well I can see why..... you are having a hard time in doing so! Looks fantastic on you Bill!

Stetson Nutria Quality...the Bowen.

Love it! If that was bigger I could easily see it being “The Bob” (although that sounds more like the name of a stingy).

View attachment 315070 View attachment 315073 View attachment 315074 l always think of my good friend Randall @Randall Renshaw when I wear this one.

Thanks, good friend!
As you know, my “game” has stepped way, way up since back then. When you get ready for some better hats let me know.

Another edition of bird busting Alberta. Yellow budgie spotted a few blocks away. Nice walk in my Akubra Snowy River

Stay safe everyone

Always gotta compliment the esteemed Cadet Blue, Eric, even if it is superfluous.
This is a hat i still covet after. Love seeing it here. Thanks

Good Guys Wear Black.

Thank you, B. I never reach for this hat without thinking of you. There’s been a compliment from you every time I’ve worn this hat. Not that I was fishing but I’ve noticed a lack of of posts from you so, post the Cav 100 and there you are, complimenting the C 100 and sporting a great pair of 40’s. There may be another 100 around but I’ve never seen one like this. Good to see you.

Well Greg, some hats just have to be spoken up for. Several of your’s are such and i always enjoy their appearance. I’ve gotten my preferred hat cues from you, HJ and a couple others.
Been a strange year for all and a lot of reflection about priorities kinda put hats back some for me. Normal ain’t normal anymore and some things just don’t shine the way they used to. Hoping to get the polish back out.
Keep your head down and be well.

A Stetson Stratoliner (cadet blue felt) was my fedora choice for morning escapades.

cheers, Eric -

My favorite blue of The Lounge: it’s always stunning. Thank you for sharing, Eric.

Thanks Ernest T.
Wonder what the “T” stands for?? If Wiki don’t know, i guess nobody does (except maybe @Frunobulax).

I got nothin'.
