    Felt hats in summer..

    I'm originally from the desert (New Mexico to be exact). While living there, I found my threshold to be about 70 degrees before I had to give up a felt hat and go to straw or linen caps. Currently, I live in the Pacific Northwest, which is more humid. I've found my threshold has actually...

    Friday the 13th

    I shouldn't be superstitious....my apartment number is 13. However, considering my line of work, and what I have planned to do today, Friday the 13th could be a bad omen.

    How do you "mark" your hat as yours?

    That's pretty much how it works for me, too.

    There is some anti-hat propaganda going on...

    How nice of the author to recommend wearing a baseball cap...I think I want to retch. And if my hats are making my friends sad...I need new friends...

    Last night, I wore my new Tesi from Amsterdam for a night on the town:

    Who got the oldest computer-contest! ;-)

    I have an old Mac Color Classic in storage, which is my oldest computer right now. However, my main computer is a 2013 iMac.

    Post New Hats Here!

    I posted this in the Italian Hats thread, but while I was in Amsterdam, I picked up a new Tesi felt fedora in a nice blue. The quality is great, and I love the color.

    Italian brands hats

    I was in Amsterdam this past week, and picked me up a new Tesi. The quality of workmanship is really nice, and I love the color.

    Waltham Pocket Watch

    Gorgeous! I received a Waltham watch built in 1904 for my high school graduation present. It still runs well, and one of my most prized watches.

    Your Most Disturbing Realizations

    Mortality is such a sophisticated concept. It seems like we're raised to know that we are mortal, and we see that around us over time as friends and family get older. Still, it seems to be a concept that we cannot completely get used to, even the more we are reminded over time. However, aging...

    Lunch, Anybody?

    Agreed! Had me some leftover pizza for lunch today too.

    What's the best hats for different occasions?

    I agree with this. It may be because I wear a lot of blacks, dark blues, and grays, but I sometimes feel most comfortable in a black fedora rather than a lighter color. I've never perceived a black fedora as being too formal. I'm not gothic either, but some people in this day and age might...

    Stephen King's 11/22/63

    I just started reading this yesterday. I'm only a few chapters into it, but the story is very captivating. This may be a quick read for me, despite being a fairly large novel.

    New Blade Runner Movie NOT a remake!

    Well, I'm glad to hear it's a sequel, and not a remake. I love the music from Blade Runner. It's easily one of my most played soundtracks.

    what do you do ...?

    Oh I agree! Sadly in this day and age when not everyone is wearing one, they're just not practical for blending in with the community I work in. Some days I wish I had a regular office job so I wouldn't have to think twice about what I wore.

    what do you do ...?

    My background has been primarily in private investigations and security. For the past four years, I've been an investigator for social services. Because I usually try to blend in a little more and not stick out in my community, the most I wear to work these days is a flat cap. My fedoras...

    What coffee or tea did you drink today?

    I get these often as well. They are really good, and a good value. I'm also partial to Umbria coffee these days. Grind it fresh and prepare it in a french press, and that's amazing stuff!

    What to wear with a fedora....

    Hey there, and welcome to the Lounge. My suggestion would be if you decide you want to keep wearing the hat in your picture, that you try it with much more casual clothes, instead of a suit. Like belfastboy said, seek out a hat that has a more quality look for it for your suit. The hat in...
