Very good look, congrats. Do you consider Minnesotans uptight anymore about hats, following on earlier conversation, or are they OK with hats? Native Minnesotans want to know.

I still don’t see many when I get downtown but out in the suburbs I’m starting to see more and more. In fact a fellow working at one of the department stores asked where I picked my hats up from, so that he had a place he could direct folks towards when they inquired.

Mostly large brim crushable “Cabela’s” type hats worn with anything and everything most of the time, but occasionally you’ll see a fedora or two. Younger to middle-age folks in general have seemed to embrace them for their functionality, and I’ve never come across anyone who wasn’t complimentary.

I had to officiate a Masonic funeral for a 99 year old Lodge brother. Black suit in 101 heat. I went with the Dobbs straw fedora that I don't particularly love. My daughter couldn't resist the opportunity to get in the shot.

Pardon the dust on the camera lens. And my big fat gut.

Josh, it is about half the width of my Whippet's binding. I'll measure them for you today and give you the exact widths. Thanks for the props on the Adam. It is one of my favorites.

Josh, sorry I'm slow. I was surprised when I measured the bindings on both to find that you are correct. Both are 3/8 inch, though the Whippet's looks wider unless side by side.
