Wow, Charlie! That is one fine hat, and the coat sets everything off!

This one is probably my very first conversion from several years ago. It started out as a too small Resistol Stagecoach in Chestnut with a 3 1/2 inch brim width. I converted this one to a "Brushed Finish" fedora. It sports a tall vertical crown that's creased to a deep tear drop. I sewed on a 6 ply dark brown mid ribbon with a simple keeper. The snap brim is 2 5/8.

Yesterday I worked under an Akubra CD during some more snow clean-up.

I took off my hat to grab a pic to share and realized my hat is camoflaged.

The morning snow blowing and shoveling I did in a cap. I worked up a sweat over the 1.5 hours of effort. I went in to change outside clothes and put my cap on a block to dry out.

This morning after snow clean-up I jaunted about in snow shoes cutting a trail. I was under the brim of a Gannon Wanderer (whiskey beaver felt with charcoal trimmings).

Cheers, Eric -

Good morning. My morning walkabout was taken with snowshoes. Afterwards I filled the bird feeders. I took my hat off to share a pic and low and behold I discovered my wonky hat brim and crease. My walkabout found me ducking under some limbs and hitting a few. I did not notice my "modified" hat until I took it off.

A quick center dent and side creases my Stetson 3X OR was back in business.

My morning coffee was enjoyed under the brim of a Warren fedora.

Cheers, Eric -

It’s not marked as such, to my knowledge those don’t exist.

Thanks, Gary!

I’m hoping your rehab is progressing quickly, sir. It’s stories like yours that remind us to ALWAYS have that darned cellphone with you. I sure do.

Waiting for a meeting to start. Late 50's Stetson 7X Clear beaver, 3 1/4 inch raw brim. Originally had a center-fire creased crown and the side brims were turned up like wings wanting to flap. Just steamed it into this shape today.
