What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Alive'n'Amplified]

Here is a lightweight Dobbs Nor Wester, refurb. This was a size 7, so I had re-blocked it to 7 1/4 a while back and gave it a full cleaning. The ribbon brightened right up. It's super light, so I have to hold it on my head on a windy day.

That thing must be heavy.

Yes, it is heavier than pretty much all my hats, even the felt westerns. But between the great fit and the flat top it doesn't fall down to my ears.

I usually wear it in winter, but I was given two new bajas, one of which I'm wearing in the picture, and I thought this hat looked great with it.

Thx. I started wearing only abt 2 yrs ago. At that time I searched the web for some bargains and older stock hangin around. Many styles that I liked were no longer in production. This hat I got on sale from Hat Country in Pa last summer. There was one of these older ones (with the leather sweat) on Ebay recently last week. Dont remember the size though.

Hey all!
Much lint has fallen since last I spent time with my pals Thomas and Gerald. Looks like I got most of it off.

Thanks as always for likes, kind words, and all other positive reinforcement of my hat obsession!
Have a great day.

Thanks Harv... have to love a senior citizen in good shape. I bought it for the beautiful sweatband imprint, but it fits well and is a pleasure to wear.

Perfect weather here today. Perfect. Went for a bike ride so the linen and leather cap came out to play again.

Alan - That tiger stamp alone is worth the price of admission. Fantastic.

And I need me a pith. Ha ha.

I like that bash quite a bit.
Any other pictures of the bash perhaps?
