Love it Moehawk! Especially anything that can be found in a thrift store. Had my straw out last week but today and over past weekend had to go back to felt! Came through Canaan Valley yesterday (Sunday) and still snow up on high ridge of Caban Mountain. brrrr!
Thanks cks! An incorrigable thrift store junkie here.:) most everything I wear besides socks and skivvies (and ebay hats) is usually from them.

Tissue weight Portis.

Jack, I am such a Portis fan and am happy to have the one I have. I like the color and the shape on yours. Did it come with that crease, or did you tweak it? Silly question, I guess.

Thanks for your remarks on the Resistol. I'm lucky enough to have two of these 25's, though today's is of a more recent vintage and in great shape.

It came with a teardrop but was so dusty probably having sat on a closet shelf for yrs. I pushed it out to an open crown, then brushed & vacuumed until I gave up. A wk or so later I gave it a naphtha bath & after it air dried I put a teardrop back in it. I love the color & since it is dimensionally the smallest hat I have, I like the teardrop also.

Great outfit.
Thanks Robert. Hope the Tilley kept you dry this morning. We took a miss on the rain here. The Peters Bros was looking good for the afternoon.

Show stopper hat and pants! Go for it the dye job would be just right!
Thanks D. I have a white silk jacket that might be a better candidate for a dye.

Thanks all,
Michael

Mighty fine, Cuz. I'm dreaming of when I can do the same. No front porch to speak of but I did have a rear deck that lies in pieces in the back yard. Waiting on the contractors to return to finish that job so I can do a little back porch sittin.

I miss the 12' X 40' front porch I once sat and played upon.

Cuz, if you're ever down this end of the road, I got plenty enough front porch to share. The house was built in '21, nice big ones were pretty standard back then. I love sittin' out here with a cool one and watching the world.

Hey folks!
Sun is out and the breeze is calm. Wearing this windy-day project Panama that I found (in much rougher shape) at a thrift store weekend before last. Finished it the day before yesterday, but wind prevented it's debut. Not sure what the color is exactly, but copper comes to mind. Or perhaps something in the Umber family.
