What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Yesterday I was driving through two inches of snow, today it's over 50 degrees. Crazy weather! I have a day of clean work, just some bidding and calls so I get to wear a nice hat. Today I'm wearing my John Batterson felted edge, it isn't marked as a twenty but has an original $20 price tag.

Fantastic hat, Simeon. Great colour and nice wide ribbon.
Very cool, Joe. Don't see those often in that shorter brim range.

Thanks all for the likes and comments on the Biltmore and Texas Hatters. And now something a little more in the spirit of Stingymas that came to me a while back by way of @BobHufford, a 30s (NRA tagged) Knox:

Yes, Stefan (@steur), it has undertones of green.
Through the gnashing of my teeth I have to admit that is a stunning looking Knox, Jonathan!

Today’s Stingymas post is a jet black Tirard. Ragondia (nutria) felt from the ‘50s, with a 5¼ cm brim. Unusually for me, I tend to wear this one brim up more often than not. View attachment 665574 View attachment 665575
I like that one brim up, Gary. Sometimes they just roll that way.

This morning my lid of choice is this open crown western style hat from Jackson Hole Hat Company in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Love that one, Timmy. The brim curve makes it something of its own, between a lords hat and a pencil curled western.

Wonderful hat, Randy. Great idea.

Proudly weighing in as the Grinch of Stingymas, yesterday I wore a CD that was as black as my grinchy heart.

Today, channeling my inner Huggy Bear in a fuzzy Adam.

You do make good use of those mood swings, Jim!

Glad to see that one again, Greg. And with some sunshine on it as well to make it look its best. A stunner.
Niiiiice!

Felt doesn’t look peachy in this place.
But maybe the pie will be. View attachment 665729 View attachment 665730
A beauty, Randall. Nice colours.

My last contribution to Stingymas is my recently acquired (thanks again, Stefan) Barbisio.

The more I think about it the more I have a vague recollection of having seen one before and not known what it was. Regardless, I couldn't get the idea out of my head and decided my next would have one. I bought it tonight. Selentino. You all are getting to be spendy associations.

* TFL has that effect on me too . These folks have been responsible for corrupting me beyond all hope when it comes to these old hats.lol.
