What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[VoodooSan]

Carl Ceschka Wien, Back Bow, possibly 1920s and a recent find. It very wide brim so it might be considered an Artist Hat / Sombrero. The Velour is more Soleil like and of a heavier weight yet super pliable.

Plate: Carl Ceschka and sons, La Capelo, Vienna (1935)

Description Cliché; advertising image of the firm Carl Ceschka and sons; label: " La capelo Esperanto, el la fabriko Carl Ceschka and sons, Vienna, Kaiserstr. 123, Alserstrasse 6 "

Woot!!! Now THAT is a hat that makes a statement!!! Tremendous!

Is it a homburg or is it a western?

Hold on, Mark, you are on the right track. I've seen many "homburgs" that lean western by simply lifting the side brims, pulling the front and rear down, and playing with the crease. I have two Wolfbrea hats just that way. You have a good start with that one!

And Importantly, today November 10th 2024 is the 249th birthday of the United States Marine Corps! Im proud to have been associated with the Big Green Machine for a bit over 50 yrs now. Funny how with passing years and more hair, the hats and uniforms dont fit very well anymore lol

Goodnight Chesty wherever you are!

Your collection never ceases to amaze me and today is no exception. All are magnificent however I'm drawn to the color combination of the Fabroc like a moth to a flame.lol

Gelot velour in black with a backbow. Very nice hat!

Another absolutely STUNNING sampling of amazing headwear, Stefan! I'm going with the Cambiaghi as #1, the Fabroc as #2 (that ribbon and binding!!) and #3 is a tie between the Steco, and the Staalmeester. As always, thanks for starting Sunday off with such beauty.

Beauties, each and every one of them, but if pushed, I’d go for the Steco. I love the way the sunlight makes the felt pop…though the same could be said for the Fabroc.

There's only one response to this post, and I don't care that Timmy beat me to saying it by 38 minutes! Thank you for your service, Rick. Semper Fi!

White hats today…pretending to be the good guys. Etsuko in a Maxim, me the first time out in a Barbisio courtesy of Stefan.

Thank you very much, Tim. Fabroc was an American brand, so maybe you can find one. made for Fahey Brockman, hence the name.

It's raining cats & dogs here @ Rock Bottom today & I have no plans to go anywhere. That doesn't mean I won't be wearing a hat around the house, especially since this Biltmore Silver Buckle Peace River model in Shadow Grey just arrived yesterday. It features their Canadian Kodiak felt which I really like. Not so crazy about the hatband but it is slowly growing on me.lol.
* I put my pencil curl tool to use on this one too !
