Definitely works for you, Mario - no need to be worried about wide brims! (Not sure a sombrero would work for you though..... )

Nice 'Raindogs' look with the striped shirt/jacket combo, by the way. I assume you're a TW fan, judging by the photos on your wall in previous shots?

Greetings from sunny Edinburgh.

Spot on, Rob, spot on - and thanks for your kind comment!
Edinburgh, eh? My ex moved there after she was through and done with me...

Jimmy, you have an inexhaustible reserve of fine hats! You wear them well both casually and dressy!
Mario, you will soon want to wear wide brims in preference to narrow brims. Mark my words.
Goose, well done! Straw hats need some love, too.

 

[Torpedo]

Although these days I wear mostly straws, today I felt like this particular attire was shouting for a felt. So, I took out my grey Strat...

If all goes well, tomorrow I will go to the movies - Public Enemies will be out. Mmmmh... Which hat should I select?

Today my Mallory Ten Pliafelt arrived in all its open crowned glory. Gave it a quick bash and wore it out with with the boys tonight. I'll post some more pics of the hat tomorrow. With 2 3/4", it's a pretty wide brim again.

Excellent!!:eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

That looks great!:eusa_clap

I exchanged the black hat for a caribou color, or medium grey

I could be wrong but I am thinking you need a wider brim, a 2 5/8 maybe and more crown wtih your face structure. That little crown and brim just isn't enough.

Very nice, Torp. I love my Strats. They just simply have the look.

Really handsome on you Mario, don't be afraid of those older fedoras with the larger brim!! Looking VERY sharp here! Us ladies here too give you enthusiastic thumbs up!

Ok, I wanted to know if I can pull this off or not, so I bought this beautiful, light grey (50's ?) Borso with that really wide brim. Never wore such a wide brim before. It's a scary 2 7/8" wide, and we do feel a bit self conscious about it, me and that long, narrow face of mine...

Now you decide for yourself...

Brooks skimmer with the versatile hook-on puggaree.

This was just a tick tight front-to-back (I'm an LO), so I moistened it lightly and verrry gently cranked it out in the stretcher - problem solved. Yes, I know my screen needs cleaning.

Yes. Very Melvyn Douglas.

Yes, Torp, you are right, sir! I can already feel it rushing through my veins...

Seriously, though: I went out with the Mallory today - in the bright light of day, not in the dark of night, mind you - and felt really good about it!
