What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

More great photos, Al. I too am sad to see summer go, seems it was very brief here in Ohio this year, many cool rainy days, not many warm sunny ones. Oh well, maybe next year.

Today at the hospital awaiting the birth of my newest son...

The best kind of news! Keep us in the loop, Sam.

Good afternoon Gents! Wow! You guys keep out doing yourselves! I'm really impressed with all these nice lids and you guys look great!....

For me this nice but overcast afternoon in Central Ohio I'm wearing my Royal Stetson again! I posted this pic in another thread but I was so impressed with the job that the guys at Rod's Western Palace did on my hat, I just had to wear it again!....btw, the silk Hawaiian shirt I'm wearing by Jamaica Jax is one of my most recent purchases. Aloha Gents!

The hat looks great TJ, but I bet you're not wearing that shirt today, it's downright chilly here!

Ha ha! Call me crazy! It's a bit chilly here too! But I'm actually wearing a tank top and getting ready to mow my lawn! But first I gotta change hats!

 

[hatophile]

Yeah, don't wear that nicely redone John B, wear a beater!

Great hats since I last looked.

Casehopper - congrats of the highest order. Children are the greatest gift we recieve in life - you are blessed sir.

SBG - love that silverbelly wanderer

MoK - great stingy, I've noticed you've a few, a man after my own heart.

Delectans - great shots. While I sure do not envy you guys your winters up that end of the Mississippi I must admit I'm jealous of the changing seasons you enjoy. It only went to 90 here today so Just a few more months for me

TJ - again I admire the Stetson. Can't wear it too much

Eric - every time I see you wear your VS Wanderer, I get more impatient for mine to arrive. I've asked Art to do something a little extra with the ribbon. Another couple months...

Wearing a new to me Champ Kasmir finish. From the looks of the liner, I'd guess early '50s. No stains or marks anywhere, so I'm thinking never worn, or worn very little. Originally sold a stone's throw from where I live.

Though a low to mid level brand, the quality of this Champ felt is extremely nice. Maybe not quite as nice as my OR of the same vintage, but pretty close.

Great photos Al!
I love a fall festival.
Since both of these threads are so much the same I am going to merge the Fedoras Afield thread with this one.
You cant get much more Afield than a State Fair!!!!

Your dinner was much better than mine! Nice Resistol, too.

Hi RBH
I'm down in Birmingham. Maybe an hour and a half drive south.
Man, Athens has really exploded the last few years, it and Huntsville are not long from being one big city.
