Anyone else here appreciate a good hat?
A few years ago I got a dark brown wool Fedora. It took me a while to get used to wearing it, but one crappy winter day I put it on and was surprised at how well it kept the sleet off my face and the heat inside my head, so I started wearing it all the time. Got lots of compliments on the look.
But I needed something lighter for summer weather, and baseball caps weren’t making it anymore. A Panama? Yeah, a nice Panama. So I started looking, and didn’t like what I was seeing anywhere. Everything I found was too coarse, too bleached, too… unrefined. Until I discovered Brent Black. I had no idea that Panama hats were such an art form - check out his website. I ended up buying one, and DAMN this is a beautiful hat. I’ve had it for a couple of years, and random strangers comment on it nearly every day.
