Yesterday was the Dobbs gamebird (how could I not wear that one?)
Two hat day today. First: Borsalino fu Lazzaro (more in the new hats and borsalino threads)
And a Wegener homburg

Hey everyone!
Change of plans. Sun came out, so the Optimo Superfino gets the nod.
I'm leaning more towards the idea of having Art make this into a hybrid...
Have a great day!

I vote not. I’d wear that great hat just the way it is Moe. Even with the brim break it is always gonno be a great classy straw. Such fine weave, be ashamed to see some in the trash. Just my opinion but it’s super.Hey everyone!

C. G. Wilke "Flamand" probably late 1920s. Flamand is an unshorn Velour.
Probably not worn like this in the day but you can see the large amount of brim flange. Also the brim over-welt, crown form, and lively bow design.
Mette, Obermarkt 6, Freiberg in recent times. Now called Barbara Mette Hats, Caps and Bridle Wear so she is probably related Reinhold.

Yeah, you want an open weave Panama crown for a duplex anyway. Terrible waste to cut up a tight weave Montecristi.

I love that one Steve. Looks good with brim up or down. That unshorn finish is fantastic, as is the color and the bow work.C. G. Wilke "Flamand" probably late 1920s. Flamand is an unshorn Velour.

Two hat day! My other "work" hat will travel down to build some set pieces at the theater tonight. This hat is a perfect example of a low end, cheap hat for a few bucks in the 1950s. I have not found any references, yet, to this odd company, possibly a jobber. Hat City Hat Co. of Danbury Conn. Another one for the beater thread.
It won't bother this one to be covered in sawdust and theater dirt.
