Hats and Beanies

[natehate]

anyone other then me into tweed caps?

the last hat, is my oldest had it over ten years. its dying. tried to buy from them numerous times but they are a right pain in the ass
it'd be rad if ih made anything in tweed

Thats a good look for you man, something I may look into myself.

[natehate]

im a hat junkie. thats just the tip of the iceberg
but its the hats i wear the most
love the tweed
and it ages too

[scroogen]

I've got a couple hats….

Pendleton fabric, but I'm not sure it's a Pendleton hat.  Not tweed I don't think, but still a hat

Wigéns Harris Tweed earflap cap.  Great hat… paid 20 bucks for it

This one is Brooks Bros.  It's a nice light cap.

Natehate…that first hat is awesome. Its exactly what I'm looking for, what do you think of hanna hats and what color is that ?

[natehate]

hanna hats
its a super nice hat. the materials super nice
i find they run a tad larger then other brands
im a large in hanna and a xl in most other brands
there is a guy that sells them on ebay for a lot cheaper then they sell them on there web site

40 usd
and he let me exchange my hat when the xl was way to big for me

45 euro
Vintage Cap 77B2
color is plain weave 412g brown
the only thing i dont like about my hanna is there is a piece of plastic in the top piece of the brim and its rather hard to shape. i took a heat gun to it and it lasted a while but i think i need to do it again
i think shandon makes the nicest hats from what ive owed theyre just a pain in the arse
4 times ive tried to order from them, 4 failures. mostly they dont communicate much at all

might give them one more try haha
anyone on here live near these guys and wanna be a proxy for me?

Cordova Caps do a range of flat caps in various fabrics. They don't have a website, but there are details in a thread at the Fedora Lounge.

Was curious to ask owners of the Buzz Rickson watch cap whether they wore it folded up or not?  I think I prefer my beanies without the fold…

Look at Norse Projects or Nigel Cabourn
My Nigel Cabourn one ..

[Jord666]

Got it in the post yesterday morning

[seanocono]

That is a great find, Jord.  Congrats.  Have you tried any of the Buzz Rickson repo watch caps?  I'm curious how the genuine article compares.  I'm more than happy with my IHC-16 – wear it all the time -- but I am still curious.  Thanks.
