A Boater, of all places...

[thunderw21]

I saw a for real, genuine boater while watching the Angels/Yankees game (a rare thing for me, I'm not into sports at all). Suprising to see, especially since everyone else is wearing baseball caps. Good game though.

Look, look me in a boater.

Boaters much better - also better as covers the whole head with the brim.

Caps can lead to greater chance of sunburn and possibly worse to ears and other parts of the face.

The hat store in Flint sells boaters. I'm tempted to get one for next summer. Be a bit of a stand out.

If they sell Tesi boaters, grab one quick. The machine at the factory in Italy is busted, and they gave Duane at Thefedorastore.com the runaround for months. Besdor had at least one in stock, so I finally got mine. Many thanks to Duane for his excellent communication during that time, he's a class act.

Oh, and I wear a 7-3/8 but I ordered the boater in 7-1/2 since they're so stiff, and I'm glad I did.

I'm happy, really I am. lol

A Tesi it was that I tried on, and it was a 59cm and it fit great. Just felt a bit funny. It wasn't cheap, about $70. Looked just like yours.

Thanks for the kind comments Weegee, for those of us in the UK, John Lewis sell boaters.

Essential summer ware, shame the UK's summer has been underwater this year.

I won't mention if I also sell boaters in the UK - 'cos if I did I'm not meant to

Though if I did, I would probably offer discounts to board members.
