Got out on the bike this morning and I traded the Dallas for a boater. While I was out I found a new suit at my favorite thrift, so some seersucker and the boater are finishing out the day.

Looks like you had a great time Red. And looking sharp and well hatted all the way through.
Thanks Wesslyn. The pants are vintage LL Bean, so they can't have been too far off the beaten path at one time. On the east coast at least.
Thanks Stefan. I could pretty much wear that one all week...
Mallory The Dallas on a nice cool morning.

Hope your day...
Hope the wedding went well, Red. Yes, this is a different pattern from the usual. I think I found this one last year.
Happy Birthday Johnny. And that's one sharp looking hat.
Thanks Bill. You've really been tearing it up with stellar new hats lately. Nice ones.
Thanks all,
Michael
An oldish Park Royal milan type with an interesting pattern.

A bit breezy today.

I guess I'm behind the times. Thanks Richard. You've been pulling out some nice straws lately as well.
Yes, the binding is kind of cool. And it proved to be a stable biking hat. Not as cool on the head as the Sun Fari. That one has hands down the best air circulation.
That's a good travel...
We almost got down to our average low last night and I find that not only means felt is good, but a jacket as well.

Another 90+ day is calling for a well ventilated hat. Stevens

On the sweat it says Milairo. Probably a plasti-straw.

I think a bit of time on the bicycle this morning...
Thanks Serge. That was a dandy looking panama you were wearing today, too.
Thanks Red. Sadly, a number of my old milans seem to have outgrown my head.
Thanks all,
Michael
Melvin Panama will go shopping today.

Supposed to be a tad cooler today.

have a fine Thursday,
Michael
Yes, life is good. Switched to my Pilgrim flat cap for a little biking around noon. Now I've retreated to the AC in the face of the imposing humidity outside.
Love that hat. Wear it every chance you get. I've been wondering about Moe and Matt as well.
I know the feeling. I need a few...
Hours of overnight rain brought a reasonably cool morning. Good for a Champ for a few hours at least.

Thanks, cks.
I'm trying Red. Mostly stayed in the AC today. Wore the Sun Fari on a short bike ride. Kept my head cooler than the rest of me was.
Thanks Stefan. I can take no credit, it came with the sharp crease. I did have to do some other smoothing and reshaping, mostly to the brim...

I think I need to up my daily caffeine dose, this heat is making me sleepy,

It does have a way of looking more straw like than straw. I like the color it takes on with age too.
I'd be happier if it was 20 degrees cooler here. Might be a toss up on 40 degrees cooler.
I like those old stingy brims. Great ribbon on that one too. They recently had a bunch of Milan from...
More record breaking heat today brings on more Hopoka straw

I think this helmet is going to be my great friend on the bicycle this summer. It's not heavy, but totally ignores wind effects. At the same time the wind blows right through keeping my head cool. Now if only some hats would show up around here again.
Thanks Stefan. Need a summery look as...
To follow the pattern, Irish linen on top,

As it moves into the upper 90s this afternoon even the linen may need an assist from the AC.
