Hey all!
This Portis Silver Beaver on a grey afternoon. No matter how much I steam and shape it, it always has a beater look and feel to it. Some days an old beater is just the ticket.

Have a great day!

Looks perfectly formed from here. My old Portis, on the other hand, has kinks and bends and absolutely refuses to lose them. But it's soft as a puppy's ear, so I cut it some slack. And that reminds me, it's about time to throw it on my head for a day. Soon.

The B-Day is tomorrow 49 to be honest and clear. I feel like a million bucks...only a few grays at the temples.
Happy to post a recent Etsy find . Been wanting one of these but a good quality one and this is it @ $130. I am a 7 1/2 60cm this fits a little snug. He only sells up to L 23.5cm. Hoping because it is leather it stretches out ? I would like another 1/4 inch. Lets hope because I want to buy more of his hats.

I think this following one is the truest color

I'll pop a few more into new hats.

Nice, Michael. That’s a classic looking hat. Those vintage Dobbs really catch my eye. Now on the other hand that overcoat looks mighty interesting. The picture seems a little dark on my screen, so it's hard to make out the details. If you would be so kind could give a little more info on the coat?

Thanks D. The coat really wasn't wanting to show up in photos today. It was another find from the vintage store today.

Goes well with the hat. Both are sort of chocolate brown. The hat is very smooth, the coat is very rough.

I think it has some mohair in it. 3 button fly front. No idea how old, but I think 50s at the newest.


Found this when I was rummaging around the attic a couple of nights ago. New in the box with the tags still on it. I think I purchased it a few years ago. Put it away and lost track of it.

Nice attic find. Wish I had an attic like that. Great outfit today, too.

Thanks,
Michael
