What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

That looks great, Anthony. Is that ribbon plum colored? It works beautifully with the deep grey felt.

if I am honest , I have no idea what color it is ... and I'm holding it in my hand as I type this
looks black.... then navy.... then a sort of eggplant ... tough to tell

Very nice Steve. I like that wider brim on you.

Even better. I love it when different angles and light sources change a ribbon's (or hat's) appearance.

I look forward to seeing how you like the hat over time. At some point, I am going to have to try my hand at a modern hat. Borsalino is a maker that I have been considering.

I love the hat ... really love it
I went into Bencraft expecting to walk out empty handed based on what I read about these or maybe switch gears and get a cheap straw for summer... but as soon as I started to handle these hats I kinda fell in love to be honest ...
not sure if I should admit this ... but I'm going back to get another one

Great color, and I dig the hat band, Joao.

You've got it bad, Anthony...but I understand completely!

If one makes you happy two will make you happier.

Hope your tests come out well!

Very kind of you to comment, much appreciated. I'm fine. One small bonus from an earlier problem in life. At 28 I was prescribed mildly short sighted and needed glasses for distance, used to push them up for reading. The optician told me that in later life, the minute body shrinkage would bring my eyesight back into focus without the specs. He was right, but now I need them to read. Yesterday I rattled of the tiny letters on the bottom row of the reading chart without spectacles, the doctor had to take a couple of paces towards to the chart to check. I didn't have the cheek to offer him my reading glasses.
The frost outside must be seriously cold, my cat stepped out, shivered, turned around and came back in. After yesterday's collar and tie something to encourage warmer weather. I'm forever hopeful.

No, please DON'T encourage warmer weather, because
(a) we had such a ridiculously mild winter - with all the rain that goes with that - until a month ago
(b) thermal comfort can be regulated by clothing much more easily at lower temperatures
(c) the clothes of the colder seasons are far more interesting, smarter and satisfying to wear.
I suspect I have Edward with me here!

Well OK, but if it's alright with you and Edward, do you mind if I send you my utility bills?

I think, it's a good match with your shirt.

And a better shot of the crease without the ugly guy underneath it.

Like usual, nice loungers-style, again.

Merry Tuesday.

Today I'm going with the Adam Polar. I really dig this hat. It's the first long hair felt that I have ever owned.

Have a swell day, everyone. [emoji3]
