Ok, Mates, I've just made it! Did someone mention mighty Milan Monday, maybe? Marvelous! Here's my 1950's Cavanagh Milan...

And, as long as we're well into straw season, my grandson was here yesterday to try his on...

Marvelous hats these last few days. Some superb Milans on display!

My humble contribution for today. Dark brown Panizza.

@Esther, sorry for wearing it the hipster way [emoji41]

Boring is GOOD, Esty!! How do you apply the brim treatments? Perfect!

Ah, in that case I'm golden.
On the boring front I mean...

How do you mean? The curve of the brim or the binding? Flange?

Thx, Charlie! Means a lot!

I buy the tree's as Pre-Bonsai and develop them from there...I have 30 or so in one stage or another of growth and style, I show several of them once a year at a local Bonsai Exhibition, it requires a lot of attention and work ...

This is a 9 Japanese Maple in a Grove with 3 Monk's relaxing, drinking and smoking their pipes, it is known in Bonsai circles as a "Penjing"...
28"H x 28"W x 17"D

And Matt (MMBarnes), and ingineer (Richard), and Moonie (Anthony).



I hear ya. My wife won't even let me walk down the Bonsai aisle at our local nursery. I've killed so many she thinks they'll know and die out of fear.

Self-rebuilt Barclay today.

Yeah Fruno , I miss them all . Like a big part is missing . I hope they're safe and enjoying themselves .

I always admired Bonsai , but its a talent . I love going to Japanese Gardens . The forms are stunning . I think I'd have to take a course , I've read a good bit . Seems there was a program on it once on PBS . Hats off to Japanese Gardeners . ... I killed the first and last Bonsai I got , and figured the form in Japanese Maples was what I needed to start with , IF I ever do . GREAT WORK Bolero , and Mm25 ! ... Fruno , and I will keep hoping , One Day ... .

Hey all!
I was hoping for a straw day so I could wear the Adam, but instead got a grey, cool bordering on chilly one.
Portis Silver Beaver gets the nod.

Have a great day!

Old cap, no snap.

 

[mayserwegener]

Tonak "Flexible" probably late 1950s. It has an older looking form. Also very light felt. This one is from my May 2016 Czech find.

Back to the Gomez today, for what little time I spent outside in this lovely AL weather.

I'd say this is a smirk. A stealthy smirk, but a smirk nonetheless! Good one!! Oh, and Lovely lid, lad!

My question is about the brim binding, Esther. It looks like a bound edge, and I was curious about that. Are you applying that by hand, or machine?

And THANK you, Serge, for your kindness!

Alan, We're not as accustomed to seeing you in a cap, and this one has complete cap coolness, character. Love it!

Harv and HatsRme, thanks for the comments yesterday!

I actually wore my Akubra CEO today but I just got this Akubra Woomera delivered today and couldn't wait to put it on. Thanks to Michael R, who brought this sweetheart of a hat to my attention. (Thanks Michael, I'm another tall crown fan) I'm not sure how I'm going to bash it yet, I'm toying with leaving it open crown for now.

Thanks Michael, I hadn't seen the Woomera until I read about it from your posts. I got lucky, just five days from ordering to delivery.
