Hey all!
Velour on Memorial Day? If it's this nice lightweight-ish (115g) Borsalino Colombo, than why not?

Have a great day!

Shirt is a lightweight chambray. It's from Epaulet's Individualized Shirting program, as are most of my shirts these days. Link here:

Thanks, quality of material and cut shows. Coupled with the Borsalino, Subtle elegance.

We made it back home this afternoon. Took our time, stopped at a few outlet stores... but only bought new socks.

I had my NW Hats Silverbelly with the Old Copper ribbon today, and MrsFed wore the Cuenca straw again. Nice, warm weather the last couple days.

Nice hat bro !!

If you do any reflecting back on this Memorial Day keep a thought & prayer for all the Gold Star mothers & grandmothers, for what they lost & never recovered from.

See Jack, thats my problem with millennial cry babies, older generations really had their share of blood and tears and continued with their lives, nowadays everyone gets offended so easily.

I remember a friend of mine saying "safe spaces? My only safe space was behind my .50 Cal machine gun in Korea, and I was 19 years old"

Sir, you have accumulated a grand hat selection to have at the ready on your hat rack. Your shared family pics I have truly enjoyed this past month.

Eric -

Eric, Thank you for the kind words. I have really been enjoying your pics lately along with the grand scenery, flowers and all. Very nice indeed.

It certainly is a bole hat, Ant. As great a hat as I've seen.

This is my fav hat you have showcased on this thread. Excellent dimensions for you. Pairs well with the shirt.

Hey it gave you a smile in addition. What is not to like? Thanks for sharing the positive results of stiffener.

Wearing my latest conversion this nice afternoon. Bradford Westerner 7X Quality, '50s era. If you can't afford to buy a vintage Stratoliner, convert a hat and make a clone! The felt on this hat is phenomenal. I used a different block on this one to get closer to a Strat open crown shape. It's the same block I used on the black Resistol. I scavenged the 3/8 thin ribbon and bow off of another Bradford. The other Bradford also had a windcord I wanted to use but because I sized up the hat it was too small. I was also going to try and scavange the brim binding from the other Bradford but it was for a 2 5/8 and the brim width on this conversion is 2 3/4. Had to go with a raw edge brim. I'll post more pictures later in the Conversion Corral...also wearing some new prescription sunglasses by Oakley.

Great work TJ.

After all these yrs it never gets easier, Chamuco. I'm always glad to see May go away for another yr.

Hey everybody, been awhile. All ye lookin' smashing!

Been wearing a lot of hats but haven't visited the forum lately. I took my optimo with me to New Haven to see my little sister receive her 7th degree (I believe the third one from Yale) . She insisted we take a trip to Delmonico Hatters. I didn't purchase anything but had a really wonderful time talking with Lloyd!
