Nice hat, but you just got photo-bombed by a little doll!Hemp Stratoliner at the park with the kids today. Summer is here in Kentucky! Temps in the upper 80's this week. I enjoyed wearing this hat during some Derby gigs my bluegrass band played this weekend too!

Thanks Stefan. Hard to beat linen chambray for a summer day.
Most excellent hat and suit combo. Great look.
So cool looking Brent, I gotta get me one of these.F. G. M. In dark green velour. This is a recent acquisition and my first/only wear before it gets boxed for the summer. Another reason to look forward to autumn.

Great Stetson NJ! Very interesting color. Had to sift through every picture on the lounge that posted with yours, but very enjoyable trip down today's memory lane. Good on ya!
Such a nice looking summer hat. Glad to see the weather has improved for you in Holland.
Another ITA, two in a matter of days. Classic lines and great liner. I think I'll have an IPA!J. Heinrich ITA Wien "Extra Qualität" probably early 1950s possibly earlier.
Boy this new format has really thrown me for a loop, you grew that beard so quick. Very disturbing, but a wonderful Weis.Weis Panama
I like that color. I have to give Stetson come credit for imprinting a proper Boeing on the sweat. Nice!WovenHemp Strat for a 90 degree day

Nice save Jim. Great hat. Since the threat of rain has turned into sunshine it put me in the mood to don the Hanover Square while sitting out on the new patio furniture set I thrifted yesterday.Feeling a bit under the weather yesterday, I decided to take a personal day. As we all know, idle hands are the Devil's workshop, so after laying around a bit I finally motivated myself to finishing this refurb. About a month ago, I found a Dobbs Hanover Square at an estate sale for the astronomical price of $2.50. A little beat, and a bit dirty, with a few nibbles, but all in all still in acceptable shape. In preparation for a bath, I had my first bad Lexol experience. After treating the sweat, I went back and looked several hours later and the leather had separated from the reed assembly in such a way it was not repairable. So a call to Bond set me up with a new sweatband. I gave it a naphtha bath, a good steam bath, ironed out the crown, and re-flanged it. I took the opportunity of being at home yesterday to cut and install the new sweat (in addition to putting a new sweat in a hat for my wife).
So today, a Dobbs Hanover Square. Hat by Dobbs, unfinished sweat by Bond, refurb by Fruno.
Some of the original sweat. There were no store debossments.
Sent directly from my mind to yours.
