When I first saw this photo I was going to delete it. My house is rendered and the surface painted white, so strong was the sunlight this morning that the sun's reflection has overpowered the photo subject. Yesterday we had similar weather, yet come the evening and we had a thunder storm that rattled the roof tiles. So I'll keep this photo, just to prove that we do have a summer, and as I have said before, It's my favourite day of the year.

I can relate to that. This year we're lucky. Summer is during a weekend.

Merry Monday, tous les monde!!

Visiting dignitaries today include my 9 month-old granddaughter, here this morning!
STILL wearing this Panama Hats Direct "Havana;" with a redux using vintage ribbon and (much more important) a non-allergenic sweatband by Mr. Fawcett.

Excellent panama, Charlie. Looks like fine weave.

Yesterday evening out and about in a Gannon (green moss with gills).

This morning I found myself selecting between two vtg. Lee All Americans. Gray or buckskin, buckskin or gray. It was 6:00am and still sleepy I mused about it for a bit. I chose the buckskin felt.

Best, Eric -
The dilemma of having a large collection is that you have to choose...Good thing is that all your hats look good, Eric.

Good Monday morning to everyone.Nice cool morning here in NE Ohio.I didn't have A Stratoliner now I have 3.A vintage I'm wearing today,2 modern a reg and a premier.I did some work for a very generous lounge member who gifted me 3 strats and 4 other hats.(that's a story for another thread)Didn't think I deserved them,but a huge thanks to triple-d.

Fortunately I hadn't packed away all the winter clothes yet. Had to pull on a very vintage Pendleton and a wool jacket.

My kind of weather, actually.

Have a good one,
Michael
Excellent outfit as usual, Michael. But it does seem to fit autumn instead of spring.

Agnoulita in caramel before the heat drives me out of felt.

This is my first day wearing this economy custom. I’m really liking it so far.

You should, Brent: it's a fine looking hat.

Couple newbies to share!

Had to wear something British while watching HBO's hilarious coverage of the royal wedding. Went with this new-to-me skimmer - British make by way of Toronto Canada. It came to me sans sweat band with a stained ribbon so I installed a Bond-band and some fresh grosgrain.

Today, wearing a Mayser, stamped 1958. I swapped out the crown ribbon and re-flanged the brim. It's a nice little hat but I'd classify it as a bit of a beater. Dried out sweat band, torn liner film, crown could use a reblocking, and the kindly deutscherman who used to own it was definitely a smoker. Still, a nice lid. If the sweat eventually cracks apart, I'll give it a full overhaul.

Outstanding ribbon work on both, Justin. That Mayser will serve you for years to come I think. These Echter Maysers are real quality hats.

Looks good to me!

Stingy morning, straw afternoon. Wearing my Penn Craft (English License) long hair from about 1963. Love the finish. One of my few feather adorned hats. The long hair seems to hold the feather so nicely. View attachment 119646 View attachment 119647 View attachment 119648 View attachment 119649
Nice to see a longhair hat when you don't expect to see one anymore. No straw weather I gather, Mike?

That Borsalino was made for it!
