    Another big event today, I had an actual doctors appointment. A real shot in the arm! No really, a shot of cortisone in the arm! Been in pain since lock down, the steroid helps for a while, but my shoulder is pretty much toast. Dressed up in a double breasted suit jacket and a c.1950 Mossant...

    It has been warm and sunny all week, but for the next few days, we have some felt weather. Not cold, but too wet for straw. Drive by Graduation Party for a friend's daughter today. Venturing out of the Casa Covid in my Borsalino Featherweight. Grabbed a quick few images from the archives...

    Impressive Steve! A hat that is as pretty on the inside as out. Love the liner and sweat stamps. That brim is to die for! It is always great to have these grab and go straws. I have a Capas Bogart like this that is my daily walk hat. Love it! Way to put lipstick on the porcine hat Bob...

    NOS Pilgrim Bankaru 7 1/8 !!!!!!! Screams 1950 or earlier.....TRADE

    I know Mike Miller could give it a nudge. I'm to impatient and ham fisted with the stretcher. Worry about that sweet sweat.

    Day 30 of 31 Hat Parade: I have only scratched the surface of my collection/obsession. Saving the best for last kind of left me in a lurch, so many more that deserve featuring, but no days left. Hat crazies have a term for how a felt hat feels..."hand". Sometimes hand involves lustful petting...

    Day 29 of 31 Hat Parade: One style of hat that I collect that has not been featured is the "back bow" fedora. A popular style of ribbon treatment going back many decades into the 19th century, the Back Bow made a comeback in men's hats from 1955-1959. Then, it disappeared again. This makes the...

    Day 28 of 31 Hat Parade: Getting down to the wire! Soon, I will no longer be bothering folks with my little obsession. I realized in going through the parade that I have neglected the American Derby. Classified as a stiff felt dress hat, the Derby (Bowler in European manufacture) has been around...

    Day 27 of 31 Hat Parade: Every sharp dressed man requires a top hat for formal occasions. I still need a 1930s vintage tux, but that is just a dream bucket list item in my larger size, guys were just smaller then I guess. This classic Opera Hat came during my pain days of 2019 after my back...

    Day 25 of 31 Hat Parade: A little late again, we napped before our daily walk as it was raining this morning. The weather is going to be getting hotter over the next few days so Straw Hats are in order. Tonight, my "Ben Affleck" wild looking weave from Homero Ortega in Ecuador. My friend's wife...

    So classic, love that color. The pug/ribbon is so period. Fantastic straw Eric. Your collection is so incredible, both winter and summer. The pug on this one really catches the eye! You do have some style my friend. Love the weave on that crown. Stay safe. If there was ever a "gentleman...

    Day 24 of 31 Hat Parade: Since it is Sunday in the 'Rona Times and no in house church services, I chose to feature what I would have worn. Casual suit, maybe even no tie, and this spiffy Barbariso Italian racing homburg! I love this "Rat Gondin" which is french for Nutria. Italian hatmakers used...
