J.Hückel´s Söhne "Durit" probably 1930s. This hat had heavy use and was missing the ribbon/bow (replaced by Optimo). The felt is a very light green with color coordinating sweatband and liner. It was made special for Martin Brömme - Der Hutmacher am Turm (Nürnberg) who are still in business today (now Hut Brömme - Der Hutmacher am Turm). It has a Forster look to it. I really enjoy wearing this hat.
And today another fuzzy grizzly furry hat, this time it's a Stetson
Charlie, Thanks! Great Throwback with the BSHW "Watcher"!
Thx. I'm keeping good company. Couldn't even think abt getting anywhere near that marvelous collection.
Thank you!
No, don't you dare, your resemblance of William Cody is brilliant. I wore a beard from my early twenties to my mid-fifties, not as magnificent as your's though. I grew it for vanity purposes, it covered a large mole on the right of my chin. Come my mid fifties, the whiskers were looking more like Santa, so for vanity's sake again, I preferred the mole and shaved the beard off.
If I look like that in two years, I'll be past worried!
Old West Roundtable breakfast is this morning & it's pouring down rain so I'm wearing a hat that's been there before, an 8X Rand.
in my walks in Antwerp.
Nice truck. Fantastic hat!mm, that C&K is glorious and the liner is fantastic!
Stetson Fifteen 3X today
6 inch crown , 3 inch brim. What more could I ask for from a hat?
68 Chevy C20 in the background. My father-in-law's. Still needs some electrical work and I'd love to do a disc break conversion on it but a pretty sweet truck
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
Tell them you might consider trimming the beard when you start tripping over it.
