What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Gary in NC]

Just got that hat in Turquoise. It's a fun one. You wear it well.

Thanks Jeff, and congrats on getting the turquoise - I think you'll love wearing it, but expect to get a lot of attention . That turquoise is a stunning color in person. Pictures don't do it justice.

For today down here in FL, I am wearing a mystery hat posted about in the Cosmopolitan Hat Company forum. I acquired and refurbished this Genuine Milan Hemp hat from the company. It was misshapen and the hatband was torn and ragged, but it's now it is a fun wear on a sunny day. Less attention grabbing than a Turquoise Inwood, that's for sure.

Anyone have any information on this company? It's my second hat from them. The only mention I can find of this manufacturer is via the museum of African American history in a costume exhibit for Cab Calloway. I keep digging though.

Stetson "The Motor"... the era of the posted advertisement (1934) is likely close.

I like that. 2" brim? Looks great.

2" is correct.
