What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Daniele Tanto]

You and me both my friend. I made the mistake of thinking the Tonak color would be the same as Winchester’s of the same name. Nope. This hat turned me off from this finish; although, I sometimes think I’d like to try one in a medium dark brown. I was hoping it was going to be more of a heather, but it’s something else. At least it no longer has the pink ribbon it came with (another mistake by me and not Agnoulita).

Brent I think the best thing for your hat is to brush it with an iron hats brush. Strictly anti-clockwise and lightly and continuously. I think that choosing the colors on the basis of the Winchester felts is a gamble. Fepsa and Tonak produce felts with very "European" colors and finishes. The difference is marked and it would be better to have from Agnoulita a bunch of samples in felt with the colors. It would solve many problems in the choice and appearance of the felt, considering you are a loyal customer.

That is really something, Max. Only one problem with it though: not enough space for more hats.

Ah! But there is room for more closets

1950s (possibly late 40s) piece by custom hat maker Tropp the Hatter. Morris Tropp and his brother Wolf were custom hat makers from Austria/Poland who had shops in Philadelphia PA. and then later Newark NJ.

Max, That's an old find of mine. Great to see it again. It's looks fantastic on you!

Fantastic, Steve. Never seen one like it. Love the side vents.

Stefan, Thank you! Great pair of Straws from you today with the Dunlap and English Hatter. I really like the weave effect on the English Hatter. Very unique!

I had an Affligem when I was in Belgium. Yummy. Thanks for arousing that memory!

Some example of interesting ribbon and bow on hats with "difficult" dark grey
They are examples I have available now, with calm I can find others, but they could be a suggestion for you Brent

A) Cappellificio Cervo. Felt is "Loden" and color "Ucraina" This is the more close to your color

B) Panizza. No indication of color. A grey/blueish "lustre" and dark felt with medium hair

C) De Megni, probably a Panizza A medium to dark grey with a silver ribbon

D) Vanzina stiled by Borsalino, a deep lustre felt with a fancy ribbon
Have a nice day

Oooohhhh, ahhhhh...brilliant. Like watching fireworks!

Elegant Doug. Both hats today are exquisite.

Which is better D'aquino or Agnoulitas?

Hands down: Agnoulita!

This was one of my first hats from Agnoulita. I now have felt samples to go by.

The flecked fur is supposed to look that way, it’s just not a look that I like. It sometimes looks alright in photos, but once in hand....
At least now I have all of his offered finishes (the long hair is still in transit) and know what to expect.

Good luck! You will kill it with that great looking straw. Keep us posted.

I really like the looks and colors available. That's all I need, another hat to think about.

I’m looking at “coffee” and “spice” colors for a future order. Not sure when I might place the order, but I’m thinking about it.

Surviving the heat in my Cabo San Lucas special, handmade by locals. Picked up while a vacation there a couple years back. Very nice go-to hat.
