I am beginning my post with a copy of a Spetember 1940 Life magazine copy reminding us of the venerable vintage Stetson hat. Bon Vivants rule!

Shortly ago I was out and about sport'n a vintage Stetson Playboy. I am sanguine spouting the merits of the vintage Stetson Playboy. These lighter weight felts (recently shared by many of my fellow posters) rock! I am certainly not speaking as a fellow Minnesotan this afternoon by my assured merits of this $5.00 hat, but rather one who wishes to emote conviction in my words. Yes conviction - the lighter weight vintage felts have become favs of mine.

Yes, on with the pics.

The above said, plenty of head time is allowed for grand modern felts like the Gannon I wore yesterday evening. The beaver natural hued felt has an eye catching gill ribbon treatment.

Best to all, regardless of my non-Minnesotan opin this evening about Stetson Playboys, Eric -
These lighweight hats are easy to like, Eric. Especially if they're as nice as that one. The Gannon deserves all the praise we can think of.

The hat parade has been jaw dropping this weekend!

@splintercellsz just a perfect lid, and nice suit and tie to complement. Killer.

My own weekend parade:

Stetson 3X Eddie Bauer with the black ribbon I put on years ago. I’d like to get the original woven band back on it but don’t trust my sewing skills.

Then a beaver brand Amish hat to keep the rain off:

And a perfectly proportioned Mansfield Duracraft black or midnight homburg:

Cool parade again, Jeff. The homburg for me, thank you...
