What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[bowlerman]

Day with mist and sun that make the temperature pleasant at midday.
I'm ready for the photo conference tonight

Lobbia Borsalino Qualità Extra Superiore made in the 50s

Color is "Rutenio" Felt is soft and pliable

This is a very classic "homburg" in proportions with ribbon and finishes on the brim that match the color of the felt

Comes new from Merano, M. Hutter shop, along with some other hat of this shapethat you will see soon

I'm sorry I did not let these hats pass by "Post new hat here"...in the near future they will show with more details

Thanks a lot for your likes on the Borsalino heather felt
Buon Giovedì

Amazing, Daniele!

Today my Dusty sage Lee silver label Homburg is a frosty sage in the single digits Fahrenheit this morning. Regardless, I am appreciating the bright sunlight!

I've been out of the office having to pretend to be a grown-up way too much this week. Happily, this morning is the last one. I'm wearing the blue Dobbs Fifteen for the occasion.

I hope that each of you have a fun Thursday full of great hats. View attachment 96878 View attachment 96879 View attachment 96880 View attachment 96881 View attachment 96882 View attachment 96883 View attachment 96884

Peters Brothers this morning.

Sweet one Bob. Love the shape.

Inky black Kitten Finish Beaver Twenty Five Resistol on this chilly Wisconsin morning. The felt on this hat is simply incredible! Enjoy.

Black hats rule Mike. Love that liner tip. I agree that this one needs more head time.

OMG Daniele! That is one of the most beautiful Lobbia Borsalinos in history! Love the color, lines and the pristine condition. Definitely a major favorite!

Yesterday was New Hat Day, as I took delivery on a recent eBay win.

So far this morning we have a Dobbs Fifteen and a Resistol Twenty-five. I'm coming in with the low bid in this Mallory Ten. The auction photos weren't the best, and I prayed it would clean up nice, but what I received yesterday was beyond what I expected. Fantastic (and very pettable) felt, an interesting dark gray color, sharksgill bow, wind trolley, felt and sweat in great condition, what more can a guy ask for?

Gave it a good steaming and brushing before work and put a quick diamond in it.

Man, I love the smell of steamed vintage felt in the morning!



GILLS!!



Cool edge treatment. The binding is wider on the bottom than the top, resulting in this bound and stitched top edge.

I'll take better shots when I can for the Mallory thread. It was dark when I got home from work last night, and dark when I got in this morning, so I haven't even seen it in natural light yet.

I wish everybody a Youthfully Smart Thursday!

Yes, the smell of felt in the morning...smells like...VICTORY! Gills! I'll have to check out more details on the Mallory thread. Great catch, fishing from the "Bay". Congratulations on this one. Envy, covet...

Wow, a sage Homburg. Now that is a horse of a different color! Would love to see some detail shots of this one. Nice.

Thanks Jeff, fat fingers this morning it’s just Catalena Hats in Bryan TX
I’ve got a couple of their hats and they are-working on a rust colored western influenced bowler for me.

What a nice hat. The work on the brim is just beautiful! There's something about a black vintage hat.

Thanks!

Borsalino L'udoela in the color curdo, which translates to "Kurdish." I think of it as brown.

That hat is absolutely superb Daniele. And the scarf is very nice too. A great look for a chilly morning.

That is a great hat Alan. And also nice to see items that came through Juster Bros. One of, if not the, premier menswear stores in Mpls for many years. What a beauty it is.

Seems to be a big day for homburgs here today. I picked this Golden Pheasant out this morning, but then had to go for my weekly grocery shop before getting the photos up.

[Nathaniel Finley]

Nathaniel, Thanks! I will have a native speaker take a look at it. Maybe one here will comment too. It's from the 1895 so definitely from a different time. I am not sure where it came from (snipped from) but it's an advertisement from the hat company and not a retailer. You might want to take a look at this "Hat Manufacturer (Manufactory) Of Rehfus & Co, Kehl, Information On The Manufacture in English, German, French and Spanish languages, 1883"

http://germanaustrianhats.invisionzone.com/index.php?/topic/20-rehfus-federleicht/#entry1255

Thanks for the link, Mayser! It would be interesting to hear what a native speaker thinks of that grammar.

To be honest, the German in the booklet of information about the manufacturing details was easier to follow than the German in this advertisement and the translation of the advertisement offered in the link is also not quite what the German says (at least to me).

Maybe the ad was using some idiomatic grammar that I’m unfamiliar with or which is out of use now over 100 years later. It could also be some kind of dialect (which would mean the ad was targeting one area of Germany rather than a social class as I originally hypothesized).

Of course, my German could just be not good enough, either...
