Hello friends, looking forward to catching up a bit. Haven't been around here much lately, but have been wearing my hats diligently, as always.
Here is an assortment, noncomprehenive of course, of how I've gotten from March to June.

Thanks sir.



Steve; Not the fuzzy, chamois glorious complicated/difficult felt of the cool weather felts, but your recent showcased hats have unique, classic and classy hues. The vintage feather adds character. Again, thanks for sharing.



Thank sir. I do need to wear my VS fedoras more often. Art Fawcett is and always will be the hat whisperer.



With or wothout that hat appears perfect for warmer weather. Two looks means two days without repeating. Heaven forbid a hat gets repeated. ;)



Michael you wear a boater confidently.

This morning a dog soiree in an unlined brown Stetson Playboy. No humans were seen before 6:30am.

A run was next on the agenda. A walkabout to cool down turned out to be a couple hours in the Park Reserve. A VS Wanderer in a lightweight Art-lite dove hued beaver felt was my fedora choice.

The locals were out in numbers. No humans.

Home and fixing brunch (pasta carbonara with andouille sausage, tomatoes and spinach) had me enjoying my meal on the deck in a VS Wanderer (Art-lite silverbelly beaver felt).

Cheers on this June Sunday, Eric -
Brilliant, Eric. I always admired the color combo on that Wanderer.

Wegener, Paper Label missing, possibly mid 1920s to later 1920s. Fantastic Felt with a very soft hand. Over Welt Brim with Hidden Stitch, Tall Crown with Wide Band, Crown Tip Patch survived. Found this hat back in September 2014.

That is just about the perfect hat. The proportions are large without being clownish. I really like everything about this hat, Steve. I’ve even saved some screen shots for a possible custom...hope that’s alright.

Brent, Thank you! It would be great to see it replicated. Here are more details. This hat survived some very tough times.
