Resistol Milan, ribbon by Paul's Hat Works.

 

[Rogera]

Great looking lids today (and the past few days) everyone!

I started the day in new VS



and my wife and I went to the "Scenic Mountain" in Big Spring (about an hour away) to get out of town for a while

.

I switched into my Akubra CD for that trip since it was pretty warm and I don't mind getting it sweatty.

Manofkent, great look . I like how you coordinated your tie to the ribbon on that straw. Very classic look.

Thanks Manfred, DJH, ManofKent, A'n A, and Javier for your recent comments. Apologies if I left anyone out, thanks to you, too.

Javier--yes, the Adam has the "look". It's practically new, with a nice supple sweat band and no soiling anywhere to be seen. I've enjoyed seeing your posts showing the variety of your collection lately.

HamilcarBarca3--stay cool down there. My brother told me it was 99 degrees there last Sunday. I generally don't visit my family until November.

Orangegrad, DJH, Mike, jlee, Rogera--all nice choices today.


It wasn't quite as warm as Houston here today, only about 85, but warm enough for a straw. Dobbs Panama.

g-durand, darn sharp straw with killer pug!

 

[bowlerman]

+1!

Manfred, the new western Borso is killer!!

Jared, that's a great portrait!

G. Durand, what a beautiful color on that Panama. Is it dyed or a naturally aged patina?

 

[ManofKent]

Thanks for the comments on Friday's offering.

Justin - I love the colour of that felt. With our small town cinema It'll be a while before the films reach here.
Javier - thanks for the info. on the last one. Sorry no help on the history of today's hat but it looks good - nice pugaree.
OrangeGrad - The Akubras look good on you.
Mike - Amazing ribbon.

Jlee - looks good. Nice replacement ribbon.
Roger - both great looking hats.
G.D. - I love the colour of that pugaree with the straw.

Nice boater Frank

Thanks for the Kodo's, I see that you like boater's too.

All the Best ,Fashion Frank

 

[DJH]

Great casual weekend look, Sir Richard.

Frank you almost inspired me to try my boater outdoors today. Almost, but not quite. When I stick it on my head, I always feel I should be a fishmonger or one of those Armish guys who work in Reading Terminal Market in Philly.

 

[fashion frank]

Hey DJH ,I got a real chuckle out of that one .

A guy once said to me "hey you look like your right out of the 1920's ,you know Great Gatsby and all that " !
I told him "thanks I take that as a complement " .

Enjoy your day DJH and All the Best ,Fashion Frank

 

[Chepstow]

Many thanks for the kind words, Jeff. I guess, he get a lot of head time from me now!haha

Frank, great to see you with that nice Boater, looks and works really good on you!

Richard, nice that stingy furry beast. Stands you great!

 

[job]

I like your hats and outfits Richard and Frank.

I went to church in my Dobbs Milan today.

Optimo Montecristi "Fastback"

[g.durand]

Manfred--thank you, sir.

bowlerman--that is the natural patina on the Dobbs. The thing must be at least fifty years old. The straw is still fairly pliable but the sweatband is fragile, so I handle it with care.

ManofKent--thank you for your comment. I must say the Woodrow is a fine looking lid, and it works well with your overall wardrobe today.

Frank--the boater is perfect with the tie, the braces and Old Glory in the background. Your commenter was right, you could have stepped right out of the 1920s (or earlier).

job--nice looking Dobbs. Nice tie/hat ribbon combo.

rlk--That is one fine Montecristi.
