What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

Beautiful Portis, Jeff. LOVE that ribbon!

Thank you. It's what stuck me initially, as well.

Daybreak in the Piney Woods.... just barely below freezing... big improvement! Felt like a big hat day so out comes one of the Stetson 4x's

It's colder than a well digger's **** today, so I've got on my trusted Carhart beanie:

It's one of my favorite knit caps. I found it in a parking lot years ago, brought it home, washed it and have been wearing it ever since.

Stay warm everyone!

Starting the day in a Mallory, with sweatband replacement by the guys at B.M. Franklin.


Only to switch to this once I finally received it from my sister-in-law.

The Mallory is a beauty! Glad you were able to extend it's life with the new sweatband.

I was weighing if it was worth the cost to repair, but decided it was to fine a hat to let it go or trust to my experimental sewing skills.

Decided to work from home today and took some time to run a few errands.

The temperature is a couple of degrees below zero and we have a very lazy wind which just goes straight through you, So i decided to give this 1970’s wool and cashmere trillby from Nagy Hütt a trip out.

Looking back at my selfie from this morning, it appears the bleak January weather is making me weary. I decided to perk up the day with this antique velour hat. Manufacturer's labels are no longer present but I am quite certain this hat was made by Anton Peschel and from the "made in Austria" mark on the original sweatband, likely before WWI - two decades before the AP for Oviatt's hat posted earlier this week. It has traveled through a number of esteemed hat collectors - retaining its original detached sweatband for historical reference but with the addition of a new ribbon by Art Fawcett and a new sweatband. The hand of the felt is remarkable, feeling like a hat made from fur rather than from felted fur. To wear it is warming for the head and for the soul.

Another stellar hat, Alan. Impossible to resist if they come along.

A friend sent me this photo he took ten years ago today. We were visiting Santa Fe briefly for the opening of our joint exhibition of photographs. Pretty sure I had traveled with the Stetson 1X Nutria for this trip. There is sunshine today, too, though old sol is doing little to warm our single digit temperatures. I am spending the day inside, hatless.

From yesterday: Lord Kent to grab some coffee with family.

We took a few nice photos but I'll share this one of my sister and me. Most folks when they realize we're siblings say, "oh yeah, the eyes!"

Stay warm this weekend, friends.

Mid 20s with enough wind to make morning dog session way too chilly. Today one of the lesser Stetsons gets the call. A Stetson Montes wool. It took a curl well, I think its cute and its warm
