We got a half hour of crazy rain just before i left the office yesterday. The front of our building got flooded because of a plugged drain so we all went out via the back stairs. All was good until i got to my car; parking lot flooded! Shoes soaked after wading to my car...

Today, a Donegal tweed jacket from Magee with my Royal Stetson in glorious blue grey felt.... and some waterproof hiking boots!

Keep the hat and coat safe, Doug. Love these ribbed ribbons.

Love it - who made it?

Thank you, sir!
This was a group effort. The hat was purchased unfinished. It’s a PHD Special Reserve. I wanted a style I found on a Stetson-made paja lid from the 1950s, but couldn’t find anyone who could replicate it in my size except Vince Corvelli of Bethesda, MD.

I found the "Wedding hat" photo file from that endeavor. Pictured below is the hat we copied. This was a fun project, started about a year ahead of the wedding.
