View attachment 111608 View attachment 111607 Today I got sick of waiting for the weather to get nice enough to suit my newest purchase. In defiance of the cold and wet I put on a T-shirt and a Stetson Shore Club. All ready for summer... sorta.

Nice hat. I love how straight sided it is; it looks like Stetson used a framing square to set the taper.

You kicked it out of the park!

Today I opened the French box of black hats
Some of them are elegant evening hats, not very suitable for the modern world

Flechet Qualitè Supèrieure

Impermeable Fabrication Spèciale

Qualité: Sans Souci, feutre noir

The felt is very soft with a shiny short-haired finish.

The shape is that of a "diplomatique" with reduced proportions and the thin edging of the brim. Fantastic the bow

Thanks for the likes! Have a good day
Great find, Daniele. Fléchet did these special finishes really well.

Today it’s “Fuzzy Friday” for me. Not much for fuzzy hats and feathers but this one works. Stetson 3x, lots a crown, 2”gills, 2 7/8” brim, nicely done underwelt and a feather. I kinda like this fuzzy fella. The feather stays.
As always, thanks folks for the kind words of late. Hard to keep up.
Be well. Bowen
Ps: thought it was Friday! Oh well. B
Fabulous hat, Bowen. I like these shots where there seems to be a flock of hats following you around!

I'm into this new to me Stetson St. Regis Homburg. A little brushing and steam and then to the bank and a few errands. Getting older, with some arthritis so giving up some of my hunting revolvers. Sad in a way, to be letting go of some things but the hats are always there, right? Anyway, as they say, getting old isn't for sissies.

This lid is super comfortable and I'm impressed by the quality of the felt.

Whoa! That's some brim on that hat!

I'll take that as a compliment :D 5"..to be sure. I like your Zorro avatar! I am wearing a new 5" brimmed black "Zorro" myself this morning. I am almost single handily trying to make those looking to traditional Califoirnio attire to realize it was a short flat crown that is traditional and not the current Nevada ashtray/telescope :confused:
