A terrific Tuesday to you!!
That's a great looking hat. Perfect crease.
Berry, berry nice, Matt.


Sent directly from my mind to yours.
Thanks Jim.

The Demon Hanover is such a wicked hat. Glad to see it.
Good looking Royal, Perry.

I'm feeling quite..."demonic" today.

What, no tye-dye today? Very sharp Matt.

Super #1 Dave.

Very Sinatra-ish Charlie.

Never heard of that brand before, but looks good Richard.

Thanks, Jim, you're quite well-hatted for a demon.
Thanks Perry.

Today... got some business to attend to where the audience expects me to act my age. They think that the tie dye does not reflect well on the profession and the system.

Buzz Killers...

Your Stetson is a Buzz Resurrector! Thanks for that.

That is one great hat! The ribbon and binding color is killer! Looks so good on that color of felt.

That's a premium hat Jay!
Thanks, Hatophile. It's the one in my collection that gets the most compliments. Walking to the train platform this morning, I noticed an approaching car slowing down. I thought the driver would ask me for directions, but no. He rolled down the window and said, "You look really dapper today, sir!" That was a nice start to the day.

Well I'm in some great company today. Beautiful hat, Daniele.

Is there an English translation of "Amiata"? I've looked and can not find any literal translation. The only non-product related occurrence of the word I find is the Amiata system of lava dome volcanoes. Monte Amiata in Tuscany is the largest of those.

Might the color be named for that? Volcanic ash is gray. And I do think that I see the color of that hat in this lovely winter photo of Monte Amiata...

When this hat came to me I named it the Intrigue. It is a somewhat puzzling Stetson 7X clear beaver quality hat in a mode edge dress style - a little earlier than many and with some custom adaptations that are hard to pin down from where and by whom performed. It was quite dirty - I had the hat worked on at Optimo, where Graham replaced the ribbon and sweatband and cleaned the hat as best he could. It is lovely to wear, with its mysteries in tow.

Borsalino Nutria in mirtillo (that's "blueberry" to Englishers) for a bright morning.

Enjoy your Tuesday.

Beautiful color, the blueberry really shows in the light.

The old faithful Stetson #1 Quality.
Cheers!

Charlie, this is why you need to post your great hats more often. Yummy back bow? Would like to see a detail of that feature. Love back bows.

Hail Jim! When we start seeing upside down pentagrams carved into your forehead we will start to worry.
