Thanks guys! It hasn't really come off of my head yet… But it might be a bit crunchy on my pillow so I reluctantly take it off for bed.

My flat cap - I really only wear it in winter here as it's so warm. It folds nicely and lives in the pocket of my winter coat.

Couldn't tell you who the maker is - I bought it in Sydney nearly 20 years ago and the label has long gone.

Two new iterations of my Zephyr cap. First, the vertigo-inducing 'Open Road' edition, made with 1940's auto upholstery, and lined with c.1900 Italian polished suiting cotton and full leather blah blah.

Next, the liner for one becomes the shell of another. That same gorgeous suiting cotton takes center stage, and is lined with shirting cloth from the same source/time frame.
