Like fedoras or Panama hats?

I have Stetson and Akubra rabbit felt fedoras, a Stetson rabbit felt dress Western hat like LBJ had and a custom-made Panama fedora. And I wear them and often get positive looks/compliments about them. And I am about to get a replica of Val Kilmer’s Doc Holliday hat from “Tombstone.”

Just curious …

I will sometimes wear a straw fedora at the beach or pool. In Fall/Winter, I will sometimes wear a newsboy cap.

Nice hats should make a comeback for men and replace ball caps placed backwards and sideways.

I have A Stetson “Gulfport” from Meyer the Hatter, and will alternate with a straw plantation style and Mexican made straw cowboy hat. I’m in my late 40s and wear what I like. I get compliments all the time.

I have and wear the following.

"Cowboy" hat...but shaped in a vintage style, not the stupid looking crap you see today, but like The Hag wore.



Fedora...similar to this.


And now and then a news boy or cabby hat...very similar to this. Wear it just because, newsboy hats are cool. Also have a tan one with LSU stitched on it.
