It's official! This one has taken the number one spot, Michael. Love that hat.
Thanks Stefan. I was my find of the year for sure.

With all the straw I see around here some felt is in order. The rain wasn't reckoned with.
Borsalino Misto Salvia

Very nice. Send some rain and cool weather this way if you have any extra.

Thanks,
Michael

I'll have a limited wardrobe for the next four weeks as we hang out in Santa Barbara waiting to meet our first grandchild. He's due to arrive mid-month. Brought a couple of Lo Bues, a beret, my trusty Stetson Balibuntal and my beautiful partner of 48 years. Hope you are well and staying out of trouble... will check in from time to time.

Wore this new arrival for a bit today after getting it cleaned up

Clasico Sevillano
3 1/2 flat top crown
1 inch grosgrain ribbon
3 inch brim with 1/4 Matching grosgrain binding

This black Clasico Sevillano sombrero originally sold at Goyescas Pueblo Espanol... I believe a shop at an open air market in Barcelona, Spain came to me in a group Of three other hats. It caught me eye as definitely something different. In person this is a very well made hat. The felt is very stiff as I imagine is the intention to keep its squared shape crown and wide snap brim. But it also has a nice hand to it. The sweatband is thick... but rather stiff.. so I did not do any digging underneath.

All and all a different kind of look.. definitely not my preferred style and a bit out of my comfort zone. But a very nice And well made hat.

And thanks STILL again Mark!!! and also dang it... just the same. If ever I have an inkling of thinking I have one I may want to move along end up falling in love with it. LOL.

Just like those old cat ladies... I’ll end up an old hat guy.... at least I don’t have to feed them... but they do seem to reproduce
