Looks good on you, bolthead. My only problem with wearing modern military-styled headgear is being confused with actual soldiers/veterans. I would never want to be thought of as pretending to be in something I am not in. Therefore, I do not wear military hats as casual wear.

I would have to concurr MV. I was in the military but am no longer and a Mil Beret should really be worn as it was intended, as a part of a uniform. I have some in my collection, but do not wear them. JMHO

Nice moderate size. Thats a Ruthenium felt with an Asphalt ribbon. Heavy colors.

Thanks, Robert! The label reads: 'Rutenio c. asfalto', which I interpreted as 'Rutenio colore asfalto. Should have realized that it actually represents: Rutenio con asfalto', or 'Ruthenium with asphalt'.

AL: What a great look. That is a nice color of gray. Borsalino's are great hats. Did you fish that out of the bay?

Thank you, my friend. Had a good day fishing the 'Bay.

Green Akubra Stylemaster purchased from John Helmer. This was its first outdoor wearing - a trip to the park with my girls.

Almost reminds me of the green hat Brit Reid used in the old Green Hornet TV series.

Nice hat. Hey I'm looking for a crushable tan just about any style hat, beat up, broken in, and well worn. Here's the challenge: size 7 7/8 +
Any help in locating would be great. Thanks.

Thank you, not so great with the camera work though. That first pic makes the Wall Street look like a Sombrero.

Wow, facade, those are great-looking hats!

Couple of new ones for me. To the left is a Soveriegn Stetson, age? in a nice creamy tan color. The one on the right is a 60'sish OR (not that I need another one).

Here are some liner photos of the Soveriegn, any ideas on dates?

Here are some liner photos of the Soveriegn, any ideas on dates?...

Got a better shot of the size tag & the emblem in the liner?

 

[hatophile]

Ask and ye shall receive.

 

[gtdean48]

Ask and ye shall receive.

That size tag looks late 1940's/early 1950's to me...Somebody else may be able to pinpoint the liner & sweatband emblem better for you.

That style of "7" could put it mid-late 1950's...

Thanks, gt.
