Got my foot tangled in a grape vine and took a header (just missing the rebar seen next to the concrete block). No worries -- the hat is fine. :)

EGAD! Glad that you (and the hat) are intact.

Monday with a pale sun and some fog in the plan
Tonak in grey made in Czech Republic, one of my personal gift for birthday

High end production in the heritage of the glorious Johann Hückel´s Söhne

The proportions are those of Central Europe hats, Steve (mayserwegener) shows, with great class, almost every day

The felt is of the highest quality as well as the finishes for a hat formed by machines
I have not used the steam to form it, only I made a little pression on pinches

I must say that the current colors of Tonak production are my favorite of this time

Keep it up my year dedicated to the purchase of modern hats manufactured at the factory :)

As always I have to say thank for your appreciations on the Saturday Barbisio
Buon Lunedì!
That hat is psychotically beautiful. Damn...

Our sound guy takes some cool photos. This was my favorite from sound check. Taken through a 9 foot concert Steinway. There's my falcon park back cherry lords hat.

The show went well, sold roughly 100 tickets, which, for original jazz in South Dakota, is pretty cool.

Ended up wearing my old Mallory derby to the concert, but left it in the green room during the performance in hopes of avoiding distractions [emoji39]

Beautiful Tonak Daniele, the color is superb. The lines of this hat are also very stylish. I like it.

That piano image is wonderful, just the right hint of classy hat sweetness. Great looking derby as well. Congratulations.

Fantastic looking Knox Matt. That bow is really showy. What kind of drop top do you drive? How do you keep your hats on at 90 mph?
Thanks, Mike.

The car is a 2008 Toyota Solara. Great car... Sadly, that was the last year that they produced them. [emoji20]

Trick with hats... Derbies or snug fitting, narrower brimmed soft felts. The windshield usually does its job, but windy days with cross-winds can be kind of dangerous. Lost a boater a number of years back in those conditions. But, so far, I've been pretty darned lucky (knock on wood).

Enjoy.
