How Many Fedoras did you see today?

Hi All

Spotted a Fedora and a Straw today on the AC boardwalk.

The Movie J.Egdar today. Plenty of fedoras and straws. The movie was so so, the hats were super.

Best regards

Yesterday in the Rosslyn section of Arlington, Virginia, I saw a guy on the street in a suit and a modern Open Road. The hat worked on him, so I said, nice hat. He sounded like he was from Texas, and we talked a little about Open Roads. I gave him the name of this site.

I actually saw a guy at Kroger with a black fedora today. Felt with a stingy brim turned up all the way around. Probably in his late 40s. Definitely not a cloth hipster bucket hat from wal-mart. I usually only see baseball caps and western hats around here. Its funny I was wearing a fedora earlier in the day to a meeting but at Kroger I was wearing a flat cap. There were almost two guys in fedoras at Kroger.

I saw an elderly Asian gentleman yesterday at a thrift store wearing a nice stingy brim. It looked like a high end fur. I stopped to talk to him and quickly realized that he and I didn't speak the same language. I smiled, tipped my hat to him and walked on. I glanced back and saw him looking at me with a confused look (crazy Americans).

Today I am steaming and brushing my stetsons.

So six fedoras today so far.

Saw a couple of Dobbs boxes in one of the "American Pickers" episodes I watched tonight.

Only one, but it was not mine! Isn't that nice for 12k town?

Interesting I spotted 2 today.
The interesting part is that each fellow was sporting a nice HANDLE BAR MUSTACHE, along with a nice fedora.

After spending three days strolling around downtown Chicago, I was disappointed at a relatively few fedoras, mostly of the inexpensive wool
variety. However, I crossed paths with one impeccably dressed gentleman with what had to be a beautiful custom bowler. He spied my Black Sheep and we spontaneously tipped our hats to each other.

Saw two, one guy did the craziest thing he wore his stingy fedora backwards and one of my employees noticed me looking at it from a distance, he asked was I admiring it? I told him that was sacrilegious SMH, its not a ball cap! The other one was a Dave Brown custom worn by another customer... http://www.davebrownhats.com/

I usually see about 3 or 4 on any given day in which I am walking around the downtown areas of my city.

I found myself with time to kill today in the Fremont District of Seattle, which is something of a "hip" locale, so it came as no surprise that fedoras, mostly short-brimmed ones, were sufficiently plentiful that I paid them little particular notice. How many, then, if I had to guess? A dozen or more, I suppose, over the span of a couple of hours on a busy Saturday afternoon. But that's a dozen (or more) out of hundreds of adult males, so it's still a low single-digit percentage.

I'm starting to see more and more around here. Although most are department store fashion hats, I see maybe 3-5 proper felt hats. It's inspiring to see more men wearing hats.

I saw 2 modern stingy brim fedoras today.

Greetings.

Was out at at a bar in Tacoma last night and probably saw 4 or 5 people with well worn fedoras on, not including myself. Its nice to see others sporting something other than a baseball cap!
