What Cap Are You Wearing Today?

[dkstott]

Nice colors. It's still been cool enough here in CT for my shetland wool caps. But my linen & wool polyester caps are ready when needed.

I picked this up recently. Really supple leather. It doesn't have a snap on the bill, which I think is cool. The guy I bought it from said he bought it new in the '70s

Same cap from yesterday, I pushed the crown (not sure if it's called a crown on a cap) forward for a more traditional look.

The 1st pic gives the cap a bit of Marlon Brando "wild bunch" look to it.

Well Dressed Head cap.

Cordova cap.

I really like that "Carhartt-like" fabric, Eric. It would make a good early car cap.

Looking it too, man! That's a good one.

I returned from a business trip on Friday. A Cordova straw cap was just the ticket.

I was under a straw cap for Saturday breakfast grilling duties.

Home tonight again wearing a straw cap.

Cheers, Eric -

On holiday on the Isle of Wight last week. Billy Chyldish cotton beret, and a cheaper, Chinese-made, cotton eight-panel:

Nice jacket. Don't see many cross-zips in cotton / canvas / denim, but great for this time of year.

You're clearly no amateur when it comes to assembling an ensemble and it's matching accessories. Nicely done!

Wearing a brown wool polyester blend Capas cap while exploring the back 40 acres.

Actually, I was attending day long " make music day" concert featuring several local musicians and bands at the Wadsworth Mansion here in Connecticut.

Cool cap. Hope all that other stuff is headed in the right direction, man.

While sitting down and waiting for my wife to finish clothes shopping. I spent a bit of time going through the very old posts in this section.

I'm amazed at all the beautiful caps folks have posted over the years. My wallet can't afford all of the ones that I'd like to have. But I've got several bookmarked for future reference.

Love the cap. As to chemo, I don't know exactly what to say, but know that I am listening and genuinely hope all is going the best it can.

I like that shade of green in your cap.

I like that shade of green in your cap.

Thanks sir. The green linen certainly needs more "head time."

This morning I had to check with the neighbors before working with the chainsaw. A vintage cap was my headgear choice.

This mornings chainsaw efforts found me wearing a ball cap. Hard effort and lots of perspiration later I was done. I would have really worn a cap. The ball cap was the appropriate tool.
