Nostalgia today... Great hats guys... Chief

That hat looks great - very close to one I just bought. Great color.

Blue-gray 50's Champ - the sweat says "Champ feel the felt" "Felted by master craftsmen" and "Kasmir Finish." i don't see a model name or number.
It was a gift from Matt Deckard.

Hey chief that nostalgia looks great. Is that a vintage or a modern?

Choices kinda limited. Wifey and I are doing a radical debt reduction plan, so no new panama for me ;_; ah well

And think of the money you are saving on shaving soap and blades!

The ribbon on that hat picks up the waistcoat and necktie colours quite well!

By the way - you wear the watch chain nicely. I can't quite bring myself to move my pocketwatch and chain from pants pocket to waistcoat, though I wear both pocketwatch and waistcoat all the time. Perhaps one of these days ...

Thank you so much I'm actually pretty excited about my first "proper" shave; picked up the last of the necessaries today including some all-natural pre-shave oil, blades, brush and brush stand. Now I just have to dig out grandpa's old safety razor, polish it up, install the blade and away we go!

I love wearing my chain Albert style; it has such a distinctive old-school swagger to it. Once I finally get my grandfather's pocket watch repaired, I'm going to wear it with this chain:

I'm just going to tweak it a bit to make the fob drop longer, as I believe it was originally configured. Incidentally, I've seen a picture of George Bernard Shaw wearing an identical chain.

Been a hot week in New Hampshire - mid 90's expected today as well.

Vintage Royal Stetson Panama

 

[hatophile]

Wow, nice vintage Panama Dave. Cooler weather should be heading your way.

OR 25 today.

 

[Chepstow]

David, that looks good. The combination Sweatshirt and the ribbon of that Stetson is very harmonic!

Perry, nice OR. Looks that many new Hats arrived.

You'll never go back! There is a TON of internet that talks about how to clean, polish, and disinfect old safety razors. I know this is fftopic: but will you be using a soap or a cream?

Javi,

You got hats like I have handkerchiefs, you'll never run out.

Cute portrait.

DJH,

Do you buy your tee shirts to match your hat ribbons or the other way 'round?
