Y'know, from a couple of paces that stingy doesn't look so drastic as it did to me in the first, more close-up shot you posted. Hmmmm... not bad at all.

I couldn't agree more. I really couldn't figure out what was going on with the first photo -- but the second photo puts things in a much better perspective. Looks good, bakers44.

Cheers,

And, while I'm playing catch-up here, thanks to all for the nice comments on the green Stetson Playboy. That one is getting out and about this summer!

Cheers,
JtL

I do quite like the Hanover Sq., Gene!

Here is a current straw by Zapf. Italian straw body finished in Austria. Note the green/brown hatband.

Looking good, Gene! Maybe a little "green around the gills" though!:D

Hey fellas, just wearin' the old light grey beater that I made a few months ago. You'll have to excuse the rather bland expression, I just got off work and I'm dead tired.

B-44, that does look much better with a distance perspective than it did in the close up shots. Still...you seem built for a wider brim.

Thanks, guys.

Dreispitz -- that wpsi count is a bit low, don't you think? :eek:
Of course, I'm totally kidding (I hope you know;)) -- I like that lid. :)

Cheers,

Besides the hat, which I very much like, your shirt is killer!! :eusa_clap I assume some of these shirts you wear, like this one, are vintage? I really, really like the loop-collar shirts, which can't be found in Europe.. is this style of shirt still common in the US? sorry to be so :eek:fftopic: ;)

Many thanks, djgo-cat-go! Once again, the shirt is a Nat Nast. I don't own any vintage shirts, but I love shirts with a vintage look, and that's what Nat Nast is all about. I also love the pick stitching around the collar and down the front of the shirt, which, in this case, mirrors the stitching on the brim of the hat (it's subtle, I know...;)). As far as the loop collar, my sense is that this style is not that common in the U.S. -- I'm with you, I really like that aspect, as well. :)

Cheers,
JtL

Here we go! These back bow straws are to be seen quite often this year. Obviously not only on this side of the pond :rolleyes:

Hey, besides what JTL said, might I suggest an Ebay search for them. A little hint though, they run BIG! I can still pull an XL in Nat Nast. Well, almost. Oh, and Tommy Bahama, on some of their prints, also does the loop collar.
