From last month, the VS in Mohave... or was it sand?

I love the design here. The proportions, ribbon, brim width... It's elegantly simple and looks great.

You ROCK that really regal St Regis, Red, right?!!

Try that in "Pirate talk!"

Thanks Charlie, I lost an entire day on the lounge yesterday. Catching up this morning. I think we need a dedicated St. Regis thread (if one does not exist already).

This bullet BOP just arrived this morning. I'm not going to wear it to the gym but I did step back inside to continue my tradition of being very much unable to do a cattleman crease.

I like giving these old neglected hats some steam for the first time and letting them relax toward the shape they remember. Should have taken a before pic.

How old are these Stetsons with the "4X Beaver" in the box on the sweat again? Nineties?

Stetson The Sovereign again for the morning

Have a great Saturday,

Love both of these lids Michael. That overcoat is over the top!

Best to wear a bullet proof Akubra in such inclement weather. Looks great with sleet on it.

Flat Cap Friday:

And the morning jungle gym routine:

Great cap and love the birds.

In between the comments (I am not going back to the point where my computer broke down), I'll post my own hats of today. A three hat day, let's call them try outs.

Dunn&Co homburg, generously provided by Karl (Crow). More on that one later in the homburg nation thread.

second one was part of the hat-swap with Mike (Redfokker). A wonderful Stephen L. Stetson. More on that one too later.

Third one was part of a hat-swap too, this time with Richard (Morgan). Stetson Railbird (and more on that one too later on).

If I do look a little smug in the pictures it's because there were reasons for it (on my head). Great hats, all of them.

It is great to see the SLS. It looks great on you. All three are exemplary hats Stefan. I'll have to check out that Dunn&Co in detail, love the lines of that brim.

Same doorway, different hat... a Stetson 7X Clear Beaver, which is on sale through midnight tonight in the classifieds.

Wish I had a smaller noggin. Lovely Stetson.

Thanks Red, but it's one hat with two names.

Out for some errands in the Brent Whip stitch.

The Brent is looking good. Hats with fancy brim stitching have eluded me to date.

"Dumpling"...?

Steamed or fried?

Tribble?

If it was tribble he'd have about 14,548 caps by now...

Had to do some work on the Luscombe and found a Hawker Hurricane sharing the hanger ... so .... Wormser on a Hurricane.

Worms on a plane are way better than snakes. Great hat!

Thanks hatsR!
I try....

Feeling good this Sabbath with Penny's Marathon and new whit shirt.

In the walk to meet Steve and greet him before his come back to Germany and then in the States I wore the Tonak, who kindly gave me

It is an intriguing hat just built after the war with all the raw material constraints existing in those difficult years

Without lining and with a sweatband made of different material from the leather it has a magnificent felt ina rich and warm brown

The proportions are typical of the Huckel hats of those years with wide wings and low crown

I still thank Steve for generosity and with the autumn colors I wish him a happy homecoming
