What's on the computer screen next to that Whippet? It looks subversive.

Michelshane; Great pics-always. I appreciate the very classy and creative pics you have posted recently. Thanks for sharing - share more.

Coach; Way to go sir!

David; Great hat. It coordinates well with your jacket and tired looking face. Enjoy the morning sir.

Joao; Great hat pics. Thanks to you and Alan for keeping up the western hat end of this thread.

MichaelShane, I have said it before. You were born to wear a hat! Great Pic!

DJH, that Powell is exemplary!

Tom, that Biltmore is a winner!

Sam, that Knox is some kind sweet!

Joao, you barely have room for that hat in the car, but it's looks good on you.

Monk, that is a stellar whippet!

Eric, a Stratoliner is on my wish list, and that one is superb!

If I forgot anyone, forgive me, y'all look terrific today.

 

[m0nk]

Thanks, and yes, this site is a near-permanent fixture on my monitor.

 

[hatophile]

Just hope the boss doesn't see that!
Nice Whippet too.

Gorgeous Strat Eric.

 

[Salty O'Rourke]

Well, I've fallen off the HAD wagon - here's my new-to-me Mallory Nokabout:

So many great hats to start the week... how to comment on them all?

...Great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, and great.

Michaelshane and Salty, great and great and great to see you back here.

Excuse the flip attempt at humor. Busy Monday but always a treat to take a break and take in this the thread. Thanks for posting your wears.

JonnyO, great pics-- looks like you had a great time. Only one hat on the trip? Looks nice, but gotta say it's better on the photographer! Actually I don't even try to wear hats in public when my daughter brings one along (one of mine, of course). She shows me up every time!

David, that Deckard Powell is a mighty fine looking lid.

I'm a big fan of that Gatemouth, too, Perry! Man it looks great.

Congrats on that Superfine, Sam. Also looks like a treasure!

m0nk, Salty, both awesome.

Eric, that light sage VS is absolutely a stunner. What a striking color. I know I'm repeating myself, but wow.

I began the day in a Brill's Fifteen

and later had to do an interview for a news spot that I'm told will air next week sometime. I didn't know what to don, so I went with the VS Bobby Blue. Unfortunately, the hat won't make a television appearance!

Back to Brill's now.

Looking sharp (and clean-shaven!), Jeff. Be sure to post a link to the interview when there is one.

 

[alanfgag]

Did they ask you to remove the hat, Jeff? That VS blue is really sharp on you.

 

[Joao Encarnado]

Joao, you barely have room for that hat in the car, but it's looks good on you.

I can drive with no problem with my hat on
TY.

This is a fine Vanzina hat sold from a hat store in Brunico, about ten miles from the border with Austria. It traveled from Dinerman to Zetwal before arriving in my collection a couple of years back. 2" brim, creased to a 5" crown.

 

[Joshbru3]

Gorgeous hat with perfect proportions, Alan!! :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

 

[alanfgag]

Thanks Josh. You would like this one, I think and I would like to show it to you sometime for your opinion on age. Both Dinerman and Zetwal thought it was 1930s. It does have a wide gray sweatband, basting stitches on the ribbon bow and some other features that suggest that period, but I think it is a later hat.

 

[alanfgag]

Here is the one label found in the Vanzina:

Gorgeous hat with perfect proportions, Alan!! :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

Agreed. Black hats can be a bit overpowering with larger brims, but that one looks just right.

And speaking of Zetwal, where has that kind sir been these past many months?

 

[CaramelSmoothie]

Here is the hat I wore this past New Year's Eve. It's a 1920s skullcap:

Rusty, Hatto, m0nk, Manfred, Eric, scooter, thanks for the Powell comments.

It is a shame that Matt had to stop the program as these are very nice hats.

Tom - I like the fawn version of the BOR

Hatto - the Gatemouth is one sweet hat

Sam - very Knice Knox

Joao - cool Resistol - I assume a lower quality step than your usual Black Gold?

m0nk - cool Whippet

Eric - hard to beat those VS Strats; very nice!

Salty - nice Nokabout

Jeff - two nice hats. Hope we get to see the interview at some point

Alan - change of vibe for you. Looks good!

CS - very stylish and a treat to see a young lady post here!
