Sly Guy Style--Hats

[manatree]

I wear various hats at various times.

I have one of these in Black that I wear often


and in leather


various colors of these


I will wear a baseball style cap once in awhile and a beanie when its cold.

I wear the above because somedays I just want to pimp out. Ya know, you can take the boy outa pimpin but you cant take the pimpin out the boy.... 

Marz....where do you buy your hats?

or where do others buy hats?

I'm having problems because of my big noggin. Need a 7 3/4 - 8 depending on the hat. i'm having a tough time finding summer straw hats that aren't the full blown cowboy or panama. i'm looking for something more along the lines of a porkpie or a sinatra style. something straw or vented to allow for some good cross ventilation.

thanks

Welcome manatree,

Though I'm not a big hat wearer I get the catalog from Hartford York.

They have lots of great styles, but I can see you'd have a problem needing 7 3/4 or larger.  You know what they say about guys with big heads though?
Have to buy big hats

Marz... I have similar hats... is that black leather one a Kangol???  Where did you get it??

I-must-have-it!!!

 Stenchy Fidoras, anything by Kangol, Derby's/Bowler and Porkpie hats look really good on sly domes!!

Thanks: Except for the 2 hats sitting on the oval boxes that were made for me by Art Fawcett.  http://www.vintagesilhouettes.com/ and the grey which is a Akubra Federation

I acquired them off e-bay and didn't spend a lot of $$.
