What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Nice win, Joe. That Whippet should definitely be back to its original glory after some steam.

Already nice, Joe and with some extra TLC it will only get better.
Thanks guys. It fits perfectly in my Whippet stable…. I can’t even believe I could say I have a whippet stable LOL. It previously consisted of a fairly minty (other than some liner foxing) early 50s grey and the other.. what I call my windy weather whippet. A somewhat beat up later 50s grey that has a mind of its own even after plenty of steam. I had thought from the photos this might be more like the latter…. Lucky for me.. I think it may behave more like the former... just with a great new color :)

Shouldn't that be Whippet kennel?

Either way, good job on spiffing it up. I'm with you. They're not the greatest, but they sure have the profile.

Looks great, John. It’s a classic look and It didn’t originate with Indiana Jones; you wear it well.
Thanks Brent!
The fact that I carry a green messenger bag and a vaguely whip-like object (my white cane) doesn't help much with avoiding the Indy look. But, there are way worse looks to emulate with a hat and jacket.
For example...
