Mrs Fed and I walked down 3rd Street, checked out a little antique shop for vintage hats. Nothing there for me and Mrs Fed wouldn't buy the ladies hat I liked...

So I went with a Stetson Gun Club 4X in silverbelly, and MrsFed opted for her seems-to-be-never-worn brown Champ. I really like the bash on this Stetson, but the hat is a might hard/solid for my taste. The Champ was $6.99, came in a Knox box. It goes to show there aren't as many people with small hat sizes looking for vintage lids.

What the heck is going on? I went out in a felt western this morning and sweated my head off and now the AC is running. Continuously. Ain't it Halloween soon? I switched to this,

Labeled to Brooks Brothers. I found the same "Cocoanut" stamping in a Champ on Etsy.

It still needs some shaping and the pug arranged a bit better.

Around the house I wear the LL Bean/Stetson Moose River hat or the grey Champ...
The other night I came home in my still-not-quite-right brown Christy. I put the hat jack back into it, put on my twill FDR from Duluth Trading, walked back into the kitchen.

My wife gave me an odd look.

I wondered what I had done now. (Know the drill?)

She asked if I changed hats after coming in. When I told her I had, she said, "Well, I change my pants when I get home."

Thanks, Red! Did the ribbon myself. I liked the blue better than the brown one that was on it. I have come to appreciate the brown on gray combo now, but the blue has grown on me to the point that the hat looks wrong without it.
Reminds me of the looks I got when I said I was getting a dark/muted red ribbon on a steel gray felt. Now I'm trying to think of a new color combination since I'm not a fan of like-on-like.
