What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Tonio]

Beautiful hat and countryside.

My mental image of you was that of your avatar, Tonio. This is the first image of your face I've seen. You are quite younger than what I thought of you as.

Ha, I'm a admirer of older times. My avatar is the man himself, Giuseppe Borsalino.

I know, but in my mind you looked like him. I never thought Bowen's avatar looked like Bowen, though.

Great image Nathan, good to see you again.

Thanks for the welcome Red. I just posted on the Northwest Hats thread - you might enjoy having a look. Have a great Sunday!

 

[Nathaniel Finley]

Good to see you Nathanial! Are you getting any comments on your hat(s) from other truckers?



That's a beauty Tonio! Is that your back yard? Looks like a nice place to be...

Thanks Bob! I do get a lot of comments from other truckers and customers and also just random folks. I’ve only had one mean-spirited interaction but I was in a horrible mood that day as well and probably deserved it. Most of the time folks are enthusiastic to talk about hats or my shoulder-holster man purse.

Welcome back Nathan:
Good to see you are well.
You just gotta love a guy that....
Matches his truck to his hat!!
Class!
Be well and safe. Bowen

Good to see you’re still interacting Bowen! I can’t take the credit for the color match-up, this is just the tractor the company assigned me. It does work out for a good photo, though!

Be well, sir!

Off to a BBQ in 95 degree heat. Homero Ortega wild straw will keep me cool.

I have a cold today, as you can see from the pictures. Was in bed all day, but I went out into my balcony to take these pics of my new to me Playboy. I just love the golden brown color of this felt and ribbon. Thin, very light felt.

I was so excited it was still available when I asked to buy it. I had to stretch it a little bit, and I know I have to keep the stretcher on for a few days so it won't shrink back, but it feels perfect now.

Wormser Supreme Quality

Lazy Sunday. I 'm thinking baseball and a nap...

Great color on that one, is that a fawn? Beautiful.

Mayser today. Temp in Austin = 106. Very unusual this time of year. Usually in the mid 90's.

Very nice one Max. It has the beginnings of a hollywood curl. Very popular in the 1930s. Side up and side down of the brim.

Love the brim on that one Rodolfo.

 

[Daniele Tanto]

Thank you Daniele.
Any chance you have a photo of such a hat you could share? I don’t seem to have anything like that in my photo library. Thanks,
Brent

Some example of interesting ribbon and bow on hats with "difficult" dark grey
They are examples I have available now, with calm I can find others, but they could be a suggestion for you Brent

A) Cappellificio Cervo. Felt is "Loden" and color "Ucraina" This is the more close to your color

B) Panizza. No indication of color. A grey/blueish "lustre" and dark felt with medium hair

C) De Megni, probably a Panizza A medium to dark grey with a silver ribbon

D) Vanzina stiled by Borsalino, a deep lustre felt with a fancy ribbon
Have a nice day

Nice! Thank you for the ideas. I’m not sure what I’m going to do but your photos help me see what’s possible. Thanks Daniele.

Thank you, Wyldkarma. I have no idea what Wormser called this color.

Good Monday morning! I had one of those existential crisis moments while getting ready for work - I couldn't decide on a hat!

Then I heard a voice calling to me from a box in the corner, "Pick the Frunoberger!"

So, OK.

Far be it from me to ignore the voices in my head.
