Myriads of magnificence, everyone.
Greg, really liking all your caps.
Jared, beAutiful homburg. The colors are great.
Also fantastic northwest dillinger Tedquinton.

Last evening I went black, with a hat Dennis Brooks made. I'll update later with a pic.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone.

Quick shoot of today's look, with a brown Tress & Co. bowler.

Today I've brought the 1930s (?) Borsalino:

I purchased this one some two years ago from FL member HarpPlayerGene. The story he had -- though I haven't been able to read the threads on it here at FL -- was that this hat dated from before WWII. The haberdasher in Sofia, Bulgaria (see the sweatband pic), decamped when the war broke out, and his stock remained untouched until fairly recently.

In any case I like the color. It doesn't fit me as sturdily as other hats I have; softly, yes, but it doesn't grip, if you know what I mean. I always worry that a good breeze will knock it off my head.

Greg, awesome cap, man!!

Scott, that CEO looks great! What is the brim width on that one?

Chas, I like the colors and pattern of your cap!

S4C, you have outdone yourself! :eusa_clap The grey waistcoat for sure!

Benzadmiral, that is a sweet lid, my friend.

S4C: Both waistcoats look great. Grey seems a tad more formal; buff more as if the word "dapper" or "dandy" had been invented specifically for that look.

Well in order to keep up with my Panamas today I got my Stetson Panama Centerdent, nice hat, when you grab it it makes a crunchy sound, my only Panama to do that, does it since new... I have sprayed it with distilled water and keeps doing it.

Nice hat, like it a lot, stylish and sofisticated for the summer but keeps an informal air...

Well tapatalk isn't letting me update my earlier post, so here's a new one with the pic of yesterday's lid.

Today, though temps are subzero through single digits, it was so sunny I felt like my falcon park virtuoso. Trying to get a few new angles of perspective.
