What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Ramenzoni Solis

 

Me, neither, but it’s near the top of my wish list!

Looks good to me. I want a Fed IV, but I’ve never had an open crown before. The whole do your own bash thing is a bit intimidating, but I expect to give it a go at some stage next year.

 

Dress shirts, too.

 

Dennis Brooks, Fine Fur Hats— black beaver, 2 1/4” raw brim. This was my first 100% beaver hat and has served me well. I like the character it is developing.

 

Dog soirée completed and home to eat some apple pie for breakfast.

Some sort of German wool hat on a nippy morning

Have a good Monday,

Dapper as always Fabio. Love that suit coat. Springtime in your hemisphere! Yay!

Character for sure! Great look sir!

Your posts on Facebook always remind me of how I've neglected my life on the lounge. Love the pie image, good choice!

Good to see your brim Perry.

Lots of wool there Michael. Sheep beware! Love all of it.

 

I don't show my brim to just anyone, you know.

 

That western is fantastic. Love it!

 

First rain in over a month? Good time to break out the brush-burning Resistol 4X.

 

Fawn 1930's fedora for relocating leaves, removing some screens and checking the snowblower. Tomorrow there exists a chance of measurable snow that has me concerned I am ready.



This fedora is a Brock made by the Wolthausen hat corporation. This is when they bought the plant from WHC or the wolthausen hat corporation.



Wolthausen owned the factory from 1895 until 1930. Kensington and then Stetson had possession after. (There is a little bit of mixed information on the Internet that suggests that the plant was sold in 1930 but that Stetson didn’t put their name on it until 1935.)






Cheers. Be safe, be strong and see you on the street post pandemic, Eric -

 

That’s awesome! My 23 YO daughter loves Boston and my 21 YO daughter loves the band Yes.

 

That's beautiful, Eric.

I insist, you try it! Bashing is not a big deal in the end. I never "misbashed" one hat, it has always worked. Watch the video.

I never bashed in an highly accurate style. I never said: "this is the perfect crease, I have to reach for it." I simply bash, and be happy with my unique formed hats.

All hats I have were open crowned. I can't get around with a pre-creased.

Regards,
Arne

 

Thank you, Steve. In retrospect it took me way too long to pull the trigger on it.

 

Thanks, Joe.

Very cool hat. I thought it was the Musketeer as well.

Everybody needs at least one good blue hat. Nice one, Reggie.

Somehow you seem happier with the sombrero!

Wonderful colour and wonderful petting felt, Daniele.

Just beautiful, Dave.

 

Hope everything was in working order, Randy. The colour on the Milano works best in real life.

Thanks, Michael. I wouldn't say they're common, but once in a while one shows up.

That is one impressive brim curve on that Dobbs. Good to see it out again, Michael.

A firm place on the Hückel's greatest hits album and quite rightly so. Wonderful hats and this one no exception.

 

The warm weather is hanging on for a bit. Brent Black Panama this weekend
