Sweet blue cap! Congrats on the new cap. Wear it proudly as it is very sharp. I can not wait to see the cap and you out on cap adventures.

You and others recent posts of Hanna caps have me googling the Irish Cap website (https://hannahats.com/collections/caps ) and checking the selection out. The crafts people of Hanna have many different styles and materials to choose from. Is your new cap a touring cap?

Cheers, Eric -

Eric, Feel free to join us in the the "off the rack" crowd. Ha ha ha

It's very windy and wet today. I took this shot between rain showers.

Hi Dave, Thanks! Here are a couple of shots of the cap. I picked it up cheap on eBay.

Same cap...different day.

Same cap next day here also.

Yesterday I sport'd a heavyweight wool cap for my day's efforts in the heavy snow.

This mornings snowblowing and shoveling was done with same cap. The long hard effort had me perspiring, but winter comfortable.

My cap is drying out on a wooden cap block. It should be ready to go again if called to duty by tomorrow morning.

Cheers, Eric -

Caps were my first love, so I still keep an eye out. My other obsession/fetish is Irish history, particularly the early 20th century. I believe back in those days, some hundred years ago, this was called a Shooter's Cap, a term that probably is considered 'triggering' today. Charcoal herringbone in a Donegal tweed, picked it up cheap, used (hardly), same day as my last fedora, so they shared a bag in the freezer this week; this is the first trip outside.

Here's one I picked up cheap on eBay. I liked it because of the leather sweat band (even though it's cracking).

Nice looking cap. From the first pictures, I was imagining it being super wide and floppy. Excellent cap!!

My brown tweed Donegal touring cap and a fresh snowfall. Taylor stitch denim Ojai coat.

I would like to contribute some pics of the caps I wore the last few days.
