Grand Borsalino Steve. That brim is certainly showy in this form. I like the color, Bismuto?[/QUOTE]Very nice, congratulations! I need a new Gannon...
I like how you have this one set up. Simple elegance Matt. Interesting blend of color.
The Granite I have from Mike Miller is almost green in some light. It is one chameleon color.

The Dallas is just the ticket for TAR Thursday Jim. Great color.Nice brim swoop. You should show off your creases, too, IMHO.
I keep reaching for Mallorys lately. I don't knowingly own a pre-Stetson Mallory (the Commander - maybe), but the ones I do have are some of my nicest hats and all seem to have an excellent hand. Today would be The Dallas, for thin ribbon Thursday.
It's nice being able to get back to the vintage felts as the weather cools. Not that I mind wearing felt in the summer, but I worry about stressing these old sweatbands.

I like the ribbon on this Pilgrim, nice and casual. Looking sporty this morning.A Sears model on a nippy morning

I see I seem to have gotten some sort of grease stain on it. That'll teach me to wear a hat while cooking.

The Bantam was such a cool looking lightweight by Stetson. It really fits that name.Bowen's comments yesterday about the Knox Vagabond had me thinking about lightweight hats this morning. As a consequence I selected a lightweight hat from my hat rack to head out on a dog walk.
The vtg. Stetson Bantam was my choice. The lightweight felt and leather sweat make this hat fit ever so lightly on the forehead. I love the feel and fit of these styled vintage hats. I know other forum members have similar vintage hats and always enjoy seeing those oldsters. Go Bantams!
Vents!

Thanks Red. This one isn't labeled as a Pilgrim. Says only SEARS Roebuck and Co on the tip and sweat. And Cushion Comfort on the sweat. It does have a pretty cool ribbon.I like the ribbon on this Pilgrim, nice and casual. Looking sporty this morning.

Love that Knox, Mike!For TAR Thursday I bring out the Knox Premier Strato-clone. Crisp enough out there to warrant the A-2 as well. View attachment 140482 View attachment 140483
