Nice hat! Reminds me of my brown Nutria Quality, which I really like.
"Faint hat never won fair lady."
Today working and wearing this gray, a TARDAN, mexican hat, It´s lined in my style¡¡¡
This is a modern Tardan, yes? Mexican is correct geographically, but as for ethnically, it is my understanding Monsieur Tardan was a transplanted Frenchman. He had an interesting life and a violent & untimely death worthy of a movie, incidentally. Not the way one would usually expect a hatter to end his days.

AnA, thanx, pilgrim.
John, thank you. It was stripped of the sweatband, liner or any discerning tags or marks.

That's a great hat Monte, even greater that it's your dad's. Awesome that it fits you. Is it fom the 60s?
Superb homburg A-n-A. Looks good on you.
RobFF it's a good look to be sporting. I strive for it myself often, especially this time of year.
Hat and boot shot inspired by Orangegrad. Open Road by Stetson, boots by Don Quijote of Leone, Mexico. See the hat in action in Fedoras Afield thread.

Thanx, man. I had it restored in the early nineties. It had no liner, tags or sweat so I really don't know how old it is. 60s could be a good bet. The crown used to be more of a telescope shape and the brim was 1/4 to 1/2" wider at least.
The new sweat is custom fit to my 7 3/8 size so it fits pretty well.

Manfred - the brand of the cap you're wearing is unfamiliar to me. And it's a stunning cap. The colors are very deep and refined. Very nice.

Great to see all the smiling faces and headwear this morning. Especially good to see Manfred's delighted countenance and captivating cap!
Tomorrow starts the sixth week of this. Not that I'm counting, but hopefully only eight more days in this contraption, which is enhanced by a Vintage Silhouettes beaver, in whiskey (beaver in whiskey sounds like a recipe...)
Too many perfect hats!!
Eric that Dk. moss looks dreamy warm; you should be snug as a bug in a rug!
David, the Executive is the right hat and name for YOU!
Mano Richard, HELLO! We've been looking for you!!
Andy, such a perfect hat for you, you'll always WANDER...
dh66... I covet those boots, man. Spectacular!
A&A any lid from Boston is special. Very, VERY nice!
RobFField, really great look today, my friend. Love it! SUPER hat, happy face!!
Monte your Pa's hat is just surreal. Totally perfect!
Che, Che, CHE... OMG your Borsa is a golden fleece... Special!!

Thanks Eric and Charley.
It seems to be turning into Fawcett Sunday.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend - I'm getting a couple of jobs done in the office that I won't have time for tomorrow. Thank goodness a brand new DD opened right next door

Thanks for the compliments.
Very impressive display of Vintage Silhouettes O.G., DJH, SBG and HrMe. It's mid 60s and sunny here, you gents have my sympathies.
Chepstow that is a sharp looking cap. I like the cut of it.
Taking a cue from RobFF and going for the vintage outdoorsman look with my Dobbs and new (to me) flannel shirt. Coming out of it soon, its warming up quick.
