    Full Hat Collection Photographs Thread

    I'm thinking something like this thread. It's old, so I can't revise my post there. Good excuse to start a new one, yes? After lots of shuffling, trading, selling, buying, returning, etc. over the years, these are the surviving fur felt hats. Simple and efficient, just how I like it.

    If you can't tell, Brooks Brothers made my favorite hatbox.

    P.S. - I'm aware that many of you will need to break out multiple wide-angle lenses to display your full collection, so in that case, maybe just your favorites?




    Back row, starting from the left:

    Vintage Black Knox Bowler in 7 3/4 [Crown: 4" - Brim: 1 3/4" - Ribbon: 1 1/8"] w/original box
    Vintage Fawn Herbert Johnson made for Brooks Brothers in 7 5/8 [Crown: 5 1/2" - Brim: 2 1/4" - Ribbon: 2"] w/original box
    Vintage Brown Dobbs 20 in 7 5/8 [Crown: 5.5" - Brim: 2 3/4" - Ribbon: 1 5/8"] w/original box
    Vintage Grey Stetson Whippet in 7 5/8 [Crown: 6" - Brim: 2 1/4" - Ribbon: 2 1/4"] w/Brooks Brothers box
    Vintage Brown / Grey hybrid MacLachlan in 7 5/8 Long Oval [Crown: 5.5" - Brim: 2" - Ribbon: 2 1/8"] w/original box

    Front row:

    A Carbon Grey and Dark Brown Akubra Federation IV Standard in 7 5/8 - both modern and both with Brooks Brothers boxes.

    Great collection! I'm always happy to see someone with really nice hats,
    especially when that person wears a different size than I do.

    My current collection. In addition I have a Stetson box that's a few years old, a vintage Dobbs box, and a vintage Dobbs miniature in its box.
