What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[MarkD]

Paying my condolences to a business associate who lost his grandmother, I brought out the Knox 20 to go with my black suit:

You look sharp, Mark, unfortunately a sad occasion.

Seeing that sea of shimmering black felt in the other thread could have influenced today's choice. Then again, mayserwegener's recent string of black pearls may have worked it's magic. In any case, I'm wearing a Stetson Air Light today. I wore this same hat Saturday evening as well. This is an excellent vintage fedora with very pleasing proportions. I like everything about this hat ...

 

[hatophile]

Indeed! nice Zetwal

 

[MarkD]

Very nice Zetwal. THAT is what I wish I had today to go with my suit. I need a black fedora but it has not been a priority since I seldom wear a suit.

 

[zetwal]

What size are you, Mark?

 

[jimmy the lid]

Disney...

 

[rlk]

You look familiar...
Pleasing sky-blue sun visor.

Zetwal: 7 1/4

 

[mayserwegener]

Mayser Spezial

Mayser Spezial

Mark, I asked thinking that if we happened to be the same size I might be able to help. Unfortunately, we're not the same size. Still, yours is a common enough size. You shouldn't have to much trouble find a good hat in black.

 

[zetwal]

I love the Spezial, mayserwegener ...

 

[jimmy the lid]

Ditto. Very nice lid, Steve.

What's the grey one behind, Zetwal?

What's the grey one behind, Zetwal?

That's a 1940s era Stetson WeekEnder (zephyr weight) ...

 

[MarkD]

I appreciate that Zetwal!

I'm still trying to get used to the size of mine. I really like it but I may shape it down just a bit.

I've not had more than a few minutes adjustment time to the size. A fact that I found interesting, especially after the sheer "hugeness" I felt when wearing a silverbelly.

Mark..that hat suits you perfectly. Just the right color and proportions. I'd love to see the same pic converted to black and white. Well done!

 

[Aureliano]

You have some nice stetsons, Zetwal!

Thanks Aureliano ... Welcome back from you trip too!
