Delectans, nice find!
Trojan, that stingy suits you well.
Jimmy, great combo. I dig those less usual felt-ribbon colour combos.
MVulgus, ditto!
DJones, handsome!

New-to-me Mr Disney today...

Pretty tall crown - I have put a center dent in it, to begin with. Very soft felt.

Boxed bow in this one.

Wore green today, including my Whippet.

AL, great proportions all around, and I like that shade of green.

JTL: That is a fantastic color, I hope to add that color to my collection some day.

DJ: That OR fits your face well.

alanfgag: Nice to see some mink for a change. Makes me want to reach out and pet it.

Torpedo: I like that Hassidic ribbon, it compliments the hat well.

Rodkins: I think I like that Tonak on you more than the others I can remember.

So many nice hats recently! Wow. Thanks for posting guys/gals.

I'm liking that new western you got there, especially that green ribbon. That and the color of that jacket is fantastic. Is it a tobacco color or is that just my monitor that makes it look that way?

Thanks Dan -- and gents! Dan -- the color on my "duster" could probably be called tobacco. The photo captures the color very accurately.

Cheers,
JtL

Delectans, nice find!

Thanks, Torp. That Disney looks great on you...but then again, what hat doesn't;)


AL, great proportions all around, and I like that shade of green.

Appreciate it, Dennis:cheers1:


Classic combination of felt/ribbon/binding on a Whippet. Beautiful lid, delectans!

Again, many thanks Jimmy!


Great hats, gentlemen
JTL, Good, Delectans (nice Whippet)

Thank you kind sir. You are one tough act to follow with your 'Hollywood' brim and killer sweaters!

I have to admit, I've had a hard time understanding the passion surrounding the Whippet, but these pictures are starting to get the blood flowing a bit... beautiful hat, and fine work presenting its best qualities in your photos.

Thank you, Alan. I share your sentiment also. I originally acquired the size 7 Whippet so that I could try and better understand the Whippet frenzy. There are certainly many other vintage hats with better felt and finishing, but I think it is the Whippet's iconic style, that continues to make it as popular today as when it was initially introduced.

Homburg!!! I love this hat, after only 2 months its starting to become part of me, people have stopped reacting to it, I guess it now looks like it belongs on my head!!
