LOL. All these guys are responsible for my affliction. Resistance is futile. That's a nice Dobbs, by the way.



Sorry, dude. Can't help. Spent all my $$ on hats.

Like Moon and rami, in the office on a Saturday. Today with the Mallory Coast-to-Coast I picked up recently from a fellow Lounger.

I love my new Racine!

Today, it's my new Knox.

Dave, I meant to ask, have you posted any other shots of the Knox you got at the Outlet? If so, I've missed them. I didn't know they were carrying those there. I get to visit in January.

I didn't post very many, but the reason it was discounted was because the sweat band was very cheap leather that was already flaking. I've since ordered a high quality sweat to replace it with. This was not a standard hat they carry at the outlet, but something that was obviously returned from whoever ordered it. The sweat had a hat store's name stamped in it, so it was a custom order. But the rest of the hat is superb in quality. Not sure why anyone would have put that sweat in it. You will find a number of Knox hats there though.

Since I'm Belgian and all...

Nice wide brim and nice color!
How wide is that?

Hey everyone!

Good selection today.

I agree that Esther makes a great looking men's hat as well as her ladies' lids.

Today I went with an old favorite. My 60's Resistol 3X beaver that was my first conversion that came out nice. It was also the easiest, as it was a mid-weight felt, fit was just right, all it needed was a trim and reshape. Also, the only scissor trim job I did that I didn't touch up after I made a rounding jack.

Have a great day!

I love that! I've been looking for a piece of fur that is close to my own haircolour to make something very similar.
We had our first snow today too.

Thanks. It just surprised me they had Knox. I didn't see any in January when I was there and, aside from an Instagram post Deckard put up several months ago, didn't know you could still get them. Weren't they/exclusive to Levine Hat Company at one time?

Thanks, man!

Mayser, the hat is great but the dude in that ad rocks!

Thanks!

 

[mayserwegener]

Steve--another amazing Mayser.

Thanks!

Panadora, Bob, Moe Bushman, the Coyle's Downtowner isn't a bad looking hat. I was looking at those sometime back. Now I know what it looks like sitting on top of someone's head. Not bad.

Haven't worn this one in a long while. Belgium made City Sport Cap. Great hat for my Longshoreman job on this cold wet evening....

Terry, you would have fit in on any dock in the country in the 1930s...great look.

I'm back from LA, recovering from breathing smog while sitting in traffic.

wow!!

does it look like that gorgeous clay tone in person ?

just stunning

Anthony--thanks, man. It has just a bit more red in it than the photos show. Low, diffuse light and the ivy background combine to trick the old iPhone camera sometimes.

This is a more accurate rendering, taken in better light awhile back.
