Nice, John. Is that new?


Sent directly from my mind to yours.
Thanks Fruno! I have had this one for a while now. It used to have a chain-like felt band on it before I put on a grosgrain one.
Don't know why, but it seems I always grab this one on dentist and doctor days, so I figured I'd wear it today to break that association.:)

Come on, Red, this has got your name written all over it.... just change the colors to orange and black!

I saw the Orange and Black version. It might just be the only way I could do it. Too many other hats to wear instead!

Looks great. The pre-war Playboy had an unadorned raw brim edge. The decorative stitch was added later.
I have a Vita Felt Playboy made during war time .. probably very early 40s that does not have the decorative stitch ... so it was quite a bit later that the stitch was added I believe ... post war probably?

Surely there's a John Deere logo somewhere on that hat.

Have you guys noticed, now that you wear hats, that people start calling you "sir" more often? Happened to me today at WalMart when I stopped in to get LilFed some candy for her youth conference....
I don't get the "sir" comment more, but I've noticed people are generally friendlier and more willing to strike up a casual conversation with me when I'm wearing one of my hats; apparently they make me more "approachable".

There was a movie called The Third Man. Well, this is The Third Hat... the 3rd hat I've tried on this morning. It was only 65 when I left the house for a candy run, something that was necessary prior to taking LilFed to the drop-off at church for their Especially For Youth conference that takes place over the next 3 days. But the 62% humidity was sticky and thick... I tried on a new Cuenca semi-calado. Not quite right. The Worsmer Milan. Better, but not quite. Ah, the NW Hats Silverbelly with Old Copper ribbon. Perfect.

LilFed is sporting her Dobbs Milan. Perfect for her 3 day trip.
