    Thanks 65. I think I'll find I like a lot of hats with the coat. I guess one of the fun things about a new coat is being able to try out different hats with it. Thanks, Michael

    Thanks Rodolfo. You've been showing some great hats in recent days. As always I should add. Thanks Red. A homburg and coat are a great pairing. I think I've had this suit for a year or so, but can't really remember. It's quite a heavy wool and was made in Portugal. Thanks D. Gotta love...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I think I detect a psychological difference between us. I generally find it easier or more appealing to have something in contrast, either color or tonally, than something that matches. Could just be my bad eyes. Ha ha. Interesting background. Have to use that Middle English when you can or...

    I'll agree Dr D, it was a nice find. I think it's the first Air Force gabardine topcoat I've seen. I've been gleaning the info on the color from a museum collection that has an Air Force general's coat from the same period. It was made by Malcolm Kenneth, and oddly enough I started the day...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks steur. I was so tired this morning after a bout of insomnia that I'm surprised anything went together well. Thanks again. I think I rather like the light hat with the coat. To the eye the coat has a significant grey element that the camera doesn't seem to want to see today. But...
