What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[FedOregon]

Cool beans all around, Doug!! Yeah, you look the proud papa you ought to, and the gals simply way outdo you, but that's good! Congrats to the budding thespian, and the whole fam, man!!

Thanks so much, Charlie! I loved, loved, loved the VS you posted the other day. Super lid from Art!

In sympathy with Red in a Resistol San Antonio.

Looks great, Bob! If I had an inkling about Red's new lid I would have grabbed something with a western flavor today, too!

Thanks so much for the positive comments on my Stetson 25 yesterday. It's going to be a special hat for me and a gem in my collection. I appreciate the kind words and likes.

Frunoliner Friday! Happy end of week y'all.

You've been looking great all week, Jim, and the Stetson 25 is Grade A Platinum!

Have a super Friday,

What a week for you, Michael! In addition to all the super lids, I especially liked your suit and shirt from yesterday.

The third hat coming from Holland. Thanks Stefan!

Lobbia Borsalino color "Dattero"

It is a Echter Borsalino sold in Germany

I have four Borsalino in this color, no one is equal to the others!

Another lovely homburg to compare in shape to the others coming fron North Europe.
Have you see the differences?

Buon Venerdì
A huge than for you kindness in likes to Mayser

What a super hat week for you, Daniele! I just love the new hats you're posting!

It was only on my head for a little while. The smallest 7 1/4 I have had. I wanted to see if I could pull off the OR look. I'm not quite sold on the idea. Brent Conformatic, 2 3/4 brim, nice felt. Overall a nice hat, just not tippy top quality.

I guess even Ferrari sometimes makes a lemon.
Still looks great though!

I think I got most everyone, but if I didn't, apologies!
A banner week of spectacular headwear, and rousing returns by @Kuki (beauteous black & white!!) and of course, by the elusive but effervescent Ole, @TheDane!!

Last weekend we blessed the arrival of my second grandson! I brought two hats with me for the weekend; the VS Blue Smoke I wore during the entire time I spent in Israel, and my first fedora, from high school days. My first one (Lee private label) is seen here, with my first grandson, who's wearing a 1950-ish Royal Stetson.

After the Briss; an "action shot" with the gals gabbing, the new guy with his mother, (daughter #1) grandmother, and GREAT grandmother... and you know the ol' codger on the right...

When/if a nurse comes to you, she/he brings a nurse's kit.
When/if a doctor comes to you, she/he brings a doctor's kit.
So, when the Mohel shows up, what does he bring?

A Brisket!!

Wow, 4 great generations! Any shots from your trip to Israel??? What a lovely family, Charlie!

Not a today pic but I'm sporting the Borsalino this morning. Grey, drippy day brightened up by some incredible felt. View attachment 74362 View attachment 74363

Rain here, too, Red! The Borsalino is a keeper!

A Panama from Delmonico today.

Man, you look Sharp!

I grabbed the Champ this morning again. This is a pic from a warmer day than today, I think... just to copy Red's use of archival photos.

They're saying snow showers over Santiam pass today. It's rainy, windy and feels about 10 degrees colder than the current broadcast of 47F here in town! Good thing my dental appt. is in Salem... no snow there.

Thanks Doug. You should check with Red sooner.

A morning meeting downtown found me in a black Albanian Stetson Standard Quality and my magical Camaleonte shirt, which changes color to match its surroundings.

You might wonder why the shirt takes so long to respond to a change in environment... I think it is because I stood too long in front of the Brisbane Building, which for many decades housed the famous Kleinhans Company store.

How many hats do you own with a Kleinhans sweatband imprint? I have quite a few, acquired from sellers near and far.

To the right in the downtown landscape is the old Liberty Bank Building with its twin liberty toppers. I recently came upon an old check from this bank pasted to the sidewalk near my house.

a happy weekend to you, from Buffalo!

Outstanding Mallory Ant.

Have you started making these western styles for your customers, Esther? With such a great model in the house, I think they would be a big success!

Outstanding Mallory Ant.
