Well, the pain got me out of bed at 05:30, so I will hunt and peck my first WHAYWT post in a long time. Since it is such an effort to type effectively, know that when I like a post, it is my best effort. I would hope that everyone will dig into their archives to find your favorite complement from me and apply it to the "like". They all came from my heart!

It was bright and sunny last evening so I got some pictures of the Mallory XV that I was wearing around the house. Selfies are quite challenging, bear with me for a while.

Excellent, Michael! I now know I need leather breeches to compliment my rope trimmed velours that don't get much action.
I expect those lederhosen will elicit nice comments regarding your tush as well.

Thank HR

Not everybody can pull off that look, Michael. But you have it down like nobody's business.
Try it, you'll like it, Stefan.

I'm running a day behind. This was yesterday:

Good to see you back Red. And that is one mighty fine hat to open with.

Gorgeous hat, Mike. The felt is beautiful, and the color combo is magnificent. And the binding! Wow.

That's a comeback with a bang, Mike. Man, what a hat! And so good to see your smiling face here again.

Love your hat sir, thanks for sharing. May I ask, is that a burgundy ribbon? it appears like it on my screen. It is a very nice color combo.

It does have a burgundy hue to it. The ribbon started off as a different hue - a color closer to the hat body. I say this as when I look at old magazine advertisements they show the hat with felt and ribbon matching. The vintage ribbons (rayon and other material compositions) tend to develop different hues over time. Patina is an off used descriptor for this outcome. Like you, I like the "patina'd" ribbon hue.
