I wasn't able to get up and about today until later this afternoon. Grabbed the tweed jacket from yesterday and a hat I haven't been wearing as much as it deserves. Stetson late 50's - early 60s Sovereign Twenty with the sweet Mode Edge and some really wonderful dark brown, velvety felt. I generally like a wider brim than this 2-1/4" lid affords, but it's nice enough that I just don't care.

The felt easily molds to whatever shape a fella wants, but to my eye the classic center dent works best with this one. I have the front pinch at about 4-1/4" and keep it level with no rake. A superb hat, really, it fits just a touch loose at size 7-1/2 but feels real comfortable on the noggin'. I wish my pics showed the felt off better. It goes really well with the old copper wide ribbon.

This is the first vintage fedora I ever bought and it’s still hands down my favorite. Love the colors on this Crofut & Knapp. I try to pull this out on special occasions. Today’s special event is a wedding for a little girl who has always called us uncle Bill and aunt Carla. No relation in blood but always will be part of the immediate family.

Always a pleasure to see you and your lovely wife together, Bill. You have really put together a fantastic colorway with the hat, suit, shirt and tie. It's really all tied together perfectly.
