What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Randall Renshaw]

Happy belated birthday, Randall!

Thanks, John! I’ve worked on a Beaver Deluxe like yours from Shuddes once.
Really nice hats and the beaver fur seemed to be pure and dense!

After three very hot dry weeks we finally got some rain along with a cold front moving through that lowered the temperature a bit. This morning as I looked at all my hats this splash of color caught my eye so I tossed it on and said hello world ! Knox Super Fine Homburg in Brown with matching brown brim binding. The Burgundy hatband really POPS in the sunlight but not much of that today for these pics. The felt is soft and easily shapes without steam. These Knox folks knew how to make a hat back in the day !!

Bellissimo!

Borsa Alessandria—one of those hats that was put in a box in 1960 or so, brand new, and never worn again until it made it to me.

This one's been around the block a time or two but still makes me smile... JBS Twenty Five Open Road.

I always have trouble deciding whether its a brim up or brim down day... there are days that I really like this little thing snapped UP

I’ve got one of those in the straw color and have taken to wearing it up-brim most of the time.

On mine the brim up has a neater appearance to me ... down is sometimes a bit floppy and wavy

Fantastic hat. I’ll be looking for one. Just curious as to what brim and crown dimensions are.

Fantastic hat. I’ll be looking for one. Just curious as to what brim and crown dimensions are.

Thanks. Brim is 2-1/2" and crown is 5".

I also have a raw edge version where the brim is 2-1/4" and crown is 4-1/2" with a back bow. I like the felt on my bound version better.

Simply.Freaking.Wow. I'm awestruck, Jack.

Thanks Mark.

Out and about (car wash currently)

Very lightweight Borsalino

We must be in the eye of the heat storm here - temperature is suddenly down to 75F today.

I am working at home wearing this new-to-me piece of vintage leather (very low-end: I’m just beginning to explore the world of leather). I am enjoying this look with both the Mallory Ten and the Knox Superfine homburg.

Stay cool friends!

Looks great though
