Thanks Fed! Love everything about this one!Great hats today everyone! @moehawk : I sure love those old pleated liners.... downright sexy IMO!
We only went out for a few minutes today but picked out hats for the short excursion... a 60's Royal Stetson for MrsFed I got as a freebie for buying two hats for Lil 'Fed's birthday; and a delicious little Champ featherweight for me. Fun times!

Thank you Mike!! To no avail I have been trying to get over that way for a few months. I am hoping to try and set something up for either later this month or in November.Great to see you Jer! I was thinking about you the other day. Any plans to come to Oregon soon? Great look with the overcoat.
Gorgeous hat Doug!!! She is a beauty!Great hats today, gents. Getting cold at night now, down to 37 degrees F. I picked the Gannon now officially called the Rodolfo on Michael's website. Black Cherry felt, 5-3/4" open crown, 2-5/8" bound brim and double highlights in the bow.

Fall is definitely in full swing up here in Idaho! Wore the Temple to brave the rain. Been slammed for a couple of days and am playing catch up... still have more to go but everyone has been looking great!! View attachment 88605
great job on a beautiful pieceThis fixer-upper 1950's Stetson Whippet was delivered last week:
I put it through the ringer. Some of the moth kisses were more like moth gnashes (all on the underbrim). But now she's nice and smoooooth. Unfortunately, the one original piece I could not re-use was the sweatband. It was totally disintegrating and had holes punched into it in random places. Reed was popping out... a total mess. So the one modern element is a Bond-band. I'll be on the lookout for an ebay piece I can disassemble for parts...
Wore it around San Diego celebrating one year of marriage!
A little Hollywood today:
And for Bob:

I do love that one, Daniele!Second trip to Meran in a mellow day with sun and clear sky
In the afternoon I wear this NOS Borsalino
Qualità Extra superiore. Size 6 US 7 3/8
Very soft felt finished with short hair
Color "Corteccia" with "shark gill" green ribbon
I promised to myself to be more sober in the next weeks
The online shop is still ready, in the next days the first batch of hats will be photographed
You know I think you're right... The size tag, inventory tag, and liner all together point to '40's for sure.great job on a beautiful piece
looks to be of 40s vintage
congrats on the hat and the anniversary
O, wow!Hey all!
Another bright and windy day. My best bowler, a G. B. Borsalino fu Lazzaro & C. that I got from Daniele. One of those hats that couldn't fit better even if it were custom.
And already brim up for Bob.
Have a great day!

Daniele, thanks. I promise to practice more...(I blame the phone)All or nothing! (great Small Faces song)
Stefan my vote is for the Huckel Standard, but the Cervo Princeps is an hidden gem
Since I know your passion for photography I suggest you to have more quality in the selfies
The hats will improve
