What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[The Shoe]

A few days ago I posted pix of my Open Crown American Hat Company Black wide brim western style hat. I was waiting on a 3/8" pencil curl tool for the brim and a nice hatband to replace the plain one that came on the hat. Yesterday both arrived in the mail and I'm pleased to show y'all the results.

Thank you sir. You're looking mighty fine in your new Hornkov too !!

Thank you back, though the Hornskov is not new. I just had a hard time with it. I never felt comfortable under the original Cattleman crease.

I don't care for the cattlemen crease either and I always change to something else. The new bash you put on it came out "just right !"

Thanks again. It went through a few iterations before it reached this fairly standard bash.

I love seeing all these Stetsons, Mallorys and Knoxes, sadly my giant 7/7/8 (US) head is too big for much choice in Vintage, but thankfully there are some great Hatmakers in business still, here is me again just back from church in my Hufvud Camel, whippet Fedora.

A wonderful creation.

Hornskov western weight bunny beaver 50 50 blend Rancher. Finally getting the love it deserves now that I have the crown in a shape that I’m happy with. Stone felt with dusty rose ribbon.

Last night, the wife, Reddy, and I trundled up the road to Lima, OH, to catch a Blue Oyster Cult show.

Thanks Joe, my first time using a pencil curl tool. It was a learning experience for me.

It would be easy to go with the Stratoliner, in fact the colour match is so near you might think that former Lounger, Esther Weiss used it as a template when she made mine.

The Strat though, can go back in it's box, I have fallen for the rustic charm of the Cambiaghi. By rustic I mean the felt rather than the time honoured style.

Bespoke, by Gamble & Gunn for church today, and I must show you how creative the lady has been whilst laid up recovering from surgery.


From just a plain beret Tina produced this rather attractive hat.
It received many a compliment at church earlier today.
