Class act. I'd say that look, vest and all, is pretty much seasonless.The seasonal days for black hats are winding down. I felt like being a little dressy so I'm wearing a Scully leather vest over my black tee shirt.
Thanks Michael. The beaded hatband is one of several pieces that are special to me because they were beaded by & purchased from an elderly friend who has since passed.

Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style.
Thanks Dale! During the hot summer months I don't wear any of my black hats during the daytime sun so I usually box them up. I will sometimes wear one though when going out to dinner or the like, in the evening.
Very nice color and ribbon on this one Esther. You look wonderful this morning.
I like that moss green color Bob. I don't wear much green, but it would go well with browns I suspect. Looks good on you.
Special indeed Bob!The Stetson Special.
Beautiful Barbisio Daniele. I do like that contrasting brim treatment, it compliments the pretty green of the felt. Nice.The green is everywhere in the garden plus a huge variety of flowers
Barbisio in green with contrasting ribbon (bronze) on the brim
Made after the start of the eighties in Cappellificio Cervo - Sagliano Micca - Biella when the original Barbisio factory closed
Felt of medium stiffness with classic Italian proportions
Made with good to excellent finish it is a product of the "last hurrah" of the Italians hatters
Have a nice days!
Beautiful. It would get a lot of head time on my part if it were mine.Good morning. My mystery Stetson went on my head during morning chores. The liner does point to the late 40's. I have found no labeling under the liner behind the leather sweat.
Good morning to all. Best, Eric -
