    What hat are you waiting for today?

    A nice little [late?] 50s Mayser should be arriving from Germany in about a week and a half (will need a good clean though mind you!)

    Thank you my friend! I don't take much photos hence I don't post as often as I should. Yes this was a very lucky ebay find - one of those incorrectly listed listings that we all dream about - the shipping to NZ costed me more than the hat itself! ;)

    Will do. I still have to take proper photos of the Valenza, and the Jota and post them in the correct forums! I also received a nice 40s/50s Morreton velour which I will endeavor to get photos of. I live in the warmer parts of the country, so right now midday ranged from about 10 - 14 degrees...

    Thanks for sharing Fastuni - I didn't know the providence on the "Rigepa" patent - I'll post more detailed photos once it arrives. I got it for 45 Euros, so even if 50s it'll be a nice addition to the office wardrobe.

    Just picked up another off of the ebay (just a simple black 4x2 2pc), soon to begin it's long journey down under. The internal griping belt is a feature that's always fascinated me - going through this thread I've always assumed this feature to be a good indicator of a 50s suit (I've another...

    Great to see the Mayser going to a lounger - unfortunately it was far too small for me. I look forward to seeing your photos once it arrives.
