Yesterday (Saturday) a two hat day.
First I started custom with Mackey Hatters.

After lunch I went to Tagus river south bank, to the Cristo Rei monument. Time and weather were not the best to go up there.

And a Stagecoach hat.

Beautiful Mackey, looks great with the hat band. Awesome scenery!

Great hats. How wide is the band on that Stagecoach?

I had not yet seen Stefan's yesterday hat when I picked this '30s Crofut & Knapp, Knapp-Felt.

Thanks for all of the kind words about yesterday's Knox.

Enjoy the game (if you are into that).

I also post a "P.S." shot, just because. Yesterday, the boy and I went out to the Great Dismissal Swamp for some fun. Lake Drummond is one of only two natural lakes in Virginia. It was as still as glass.

Great hat! And that leg looks divinely pristine. Wow

Thanks, Matt. Really like the look of the Knapp-Felt you wear today too. The way the brim is done always has me in awe.
Thanks Stefan.

After reading your comment, I again read this great primer on the construction of the classic stiff felt. http://thehattedprofessor.bowershats.com/2010/07/?m=1

The D'orsay curl is one of my favorite things in all of hatdom. And the subtle variations from hat to hat are simply wonderful.

The elegant art deco look of the form makes it one of my favorites with which to mess around in photo shop. Just for self-indulgent giggles, here's this one from a couple of years ago (along with the original of the photo that provided the background).

Thanks, Jeff.

And yeah... the conditions on the lake were disturbingly beautiful and serene.

It took me a while to figure out that "leg" in your comment was likely an autocorrect mess-up of "lake". I spent a couple minutes racking my brain to figure out if a "leg" was a part of a hat that I had never heard of or forgotten.
