What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Daniele Tanto]

Love the finish on this one. Such a rich color of brown.

Thanks Mike and everyone too
I have a preference for short or medium-haired finishes hats, less for long-haired ones, as I like very much the velor finishes.
Borsalino has a predilection for the short-haired finishes, with bright reflections, perhaps because Mr. Giuseppe Borsalino has made his apprenticeship in France, a country where felts finished with short or medium-haired with shiny reflections have had a great diffusion and marked tradition working. As you can see on FL, the velour was more produced in central Europe.
My friend Steve (mayserwagener) has an immense and splendid collection of velours that are showed here with ease
I follow my preferences having an Italian market that often offers me this type of finish and I was lucky enough to detect a good number of French hats (Tirad, Flechet and Mossant) finished with short hair.
I also have a passion for mixed felt hats and antique wool hats, of which I have beautiful examples.

Very well put together Michael!

Thanks 65. I'm a big fan of Harris Tweed and have several caps made from it. And a bunch of sport coats, and a few overcoats. Still looking for that full suit. Your French velour hat today is very nice. I'm a big fan of velour finishes too.

Thanks,
Michael

Beautiful color and finish on that Borsalino Daniele. Looks very good with your green parka.

Many thanks Michael, today I would like to have one of your elegant coat to wear and it would be perfect with the hat
You are one of my joyful inspirations of every day because you remind me of a time, quite gone, when the Italian men were dressed elegantly, now, even here it is difficult to see class attire

1930s Stetson Special.

Molto bello Bob! Uno splendore

For this chilly morning the French velour Chamois

Very nice frenchie. I like to know the producer or to have a picture of the interior.
Thanks

The Levine is one of my favorites. In all of it's color variations.

Thank you much, Michael.

Foggy snowy morning in a vtg. Beaver Hat.

My favorite kind of pho... we have more than our shortness and baldness in common, sir.

Nice shirt. That Alpenland looks like it has some fine felt.

Nice Bushman! The felt looks really substantial on that brim.


Beautiful liner, as most of these Mayser hats seem to have. Great color. The lines and snap are interesting.


Looks like a nice finish on that one. What is it? Welcome.

Thanks Mike!
I am a big fan of shirts with fish, both obvious and subtly worked into the pattern.
The Alpenland is getting better and better the more it breaks in.

Hard to tell from one poorly lit shot, but probably later 60s, maybe 70s. Can you provide more pix, interior and exterior?


Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Substantially warmer than yesterday morning, but substantially windier as well. I think I'll go with a cap today. Hopefully won't have to chase this Stetson down the street.

You're still looking a little under the weather this morning. Hope you recover soon.

Thanks,

Great outfit. I understand about chasing hats down the street. Where I live a 30 mhr wind is just a light breeze.

Hey all!
A German made Hückel that I got in trade from Stefan blocks the rays on a bright and sunshiny afternoon.

Have a great day!

Coyote fur hat - it was in the teens this morning.

Looks like you are auditioning for a part in season 3 of Frontier.
Looking good.

That Wilson is one great looking hat. The tight brim and tall crown are striking. It makes for a very Intense, cool look with that coat.

The Mayser is sweet, too.

Great looking pair of hats and coats, steur. You look well set for winter.

Michael

Matt, Michael, thanks! I appreciate it. Let the winter begin!

Echter Mayser "Mayser's Supra" at dusk, probably early 1950s.

Wonderful, Steve. The liner alone is worth it. That is a very pronounced brim flange on that hat.
