Thanks Richard. Beautiful Flechet velour. I posted some before and after photos over in the vintage homes thread recently if you're interested.
1mach1 that Mallory looks great! I love those Open Road style hats

Back to cool mornings, so I'm going with a Stetson 25 (love that Mallory, Harv!)

David and dh66, thanks for the compliments!

Good rainy A.M. from Central Ohio! You Gents are looking great as usual!

NewJack, there's nothing like a guy who's happy with a new hat purchase. The ribbon / hat color combo looks nice on that!
Richard, I have to say, the felt finish on your Flechet looks really interesting.
Harv, Love the Mallory 15!
David, Ditto on your Stetson 25! It looks great!

Here's a Panama I'm working on. This used to have a short tapered crown, just under 4' tall. I was able to square up the sides and adust the crown height to 4 1/2 inches after reblocking it. I'm trying to decide on a ribbon choice. I'm either going with a contrasting mid-ribbon and double bow, or with a contrasting OR / Strat type thin ribbon. Still deciding....

Terrific tops today!!

TJones... VERY impressive results on the Panama. I find shaping straws to be super frustrating.

Good to see you, Dale; great Milan, man!

NewJack is IN THE HOUSE! Exceptional hat, sir!!

Cool looking panama TJ! I vote thin ribbon.
Excellent Stetson DJH

What is the price range on FVF's these days, New Jack?

NewJack – That is a gorgeous hat. Love the color combo.

Richard – VERY nice. Looks good on you as well. Reminds me of Borsalino’s Diamante. I love those little hats.

Harv – THAT is a hat. Looks sharp.

Classic, David, classic. I like the light color as well.

TJones – I’d go with the double contrasting. More like summer to me. But I’ve always liked your refurbs so I’m sure you’ll make the right decision. Now you have both sides of it.

My blue Marathon this coldish spring morning.

The 7XCB has at least nine lives. Great hat.

If you say so. I would hate to have it ruined.

Joao - at least with that hat there's not much of you exposed to the elements

Can't say the same of you with those tiny brims.

I would go with something reddish or black.

I think the storm has passed, it's not raining now.
For today this Stetson.

The end of the old nuts... a mishmash of marks so quality level is unknown. Circa 1940.

Very thin felt body of modest weight (3.7 oz hat) - the Stetson Tailored Edge is a subtly rounded raw (kind of like a feebly growing down - remind me to tell you about that one some day).

 

[Joao Encarnado]

Really nice Alan.

 

[alanfgag]

Thank you Joao - it is nice, even with the wimpy 3" brim.

 

[rclark]

Nice hat Alan!

Yes it is. Looks good on you.
