Cool Knox, Dave. I really like the ribbon treatment.

I come back after a long and strange summer that lasted until late September. Impossible to wear felt hats, today thanks to a cool day here is the first autumn felt.

A low-class hat, those that wear out in years of intense use and hard to find, so nothing elegant, no XXX, no beaver or high-sounding names.

It is a hat made in France probably in the sixties, therefore with a short brim and a medium crown.

It is called Magdinier and has only one peculiarity: it has a heathered felt that is difficult to find today, nothing but the felt is marked "Chinè Satinè "Impermeable (satin heather, waterproof)

Have a nice day

Daniele, Great to see the Speciality Felt! I have been absent here since my lockdown marathon. I hope to be back in action next week.

Garrett, Super! I like how you have this Hückel "Chamois" setup.

 

[Yahoody]

Some sharp looking hats Gents!

 

[deadlyhandsome]

Thank you Sir! Nope, simple mail order, store bought. New yesterday. Shipped to me by mistake. You'd hate it, stiff as a board And the felt quality sucks compared to a "real" hat. But the price is right. Generally these sell of $300 to $350 delivered. Found a supplier that charges $227 delivered for the same hat.

Wow! That sounds like a great deal. Can you please send me a PM with the information on the supplier?

Eery sky tonight. I am enjoying some outside time with my dog (Tio (Horatio) a Port.Water Dog). I have been wearing my Gannon Playboy (inspired by Stetson's Playboys made of a modern blue smoke beaver felt).

Cheers, Eric -

 

[Short Balding Guy]

Outstanding!

Thanks sir. You have been posting up some grand hats of late. I especially enjoyed your Neiman Marcus hat. It sounds fancy.

Looking great under the big brim.

Indeed chilly 83'f! Like the longhair hat sir.

Featherweight nutria fur western, LOT5XXX, c.1930.

Thanks for sharing Alan. Some hats you can pair with a bath robe and they will shine. This is such a hat.

Ever looking sharp Reggie. I will have to look for Como's as your hat really has a classy look. Cheers.

Thanks for all the likes Fedora Lounge folks. I leave with a pic of the fruit that is my dinner this evening. Nothing beats fresh raspberries, half and half and some vanilla seeds scraped from the pod for dinner.

Cheers, Eric -

The Golden Bear and Borsalino befuddled the bagger boy tonight:

BBB - "Are you dressed in a costume?"
ME - "Uh, no."
BBB - "That's just casual wear?"
ME - "Pretty much."
BBB - "Are you a dancer, like Michael Jackson?"
ME - "I don't have that much talent."

I would have lingered and humored him some more because clearly he was interested but there were people behind me in line and with COVID social distancing and all...

Hopefully the Averla (c. Aligi) Gorasgu made a boring Friday night shift a little more fun.

Love it. Even the jacket.

First time out & about in my late 1960s Akubra Stylemaster that I bought during straw hat season. I like it a lot.

My wife wore a Maxim.

Thai food at a restaurant we frequent.

Here’s the crease and ribbon on my wife’s hat.

 

[Daniele Tanto]

Before the daily hat I want to congratulate my daughter Ginevra who graduated in Japanese at Ca 'Foscari in Venezia

There she was yesterday on the day of the proclamation in Piazza San Marco, made without public, with the square closed for health reasons
Finally the temperature has cooled down in NorthEast Italy, so I can wear the felts.

I chose another particular French hat: Morreton Liclon "Softline" Impermeable

The felt is clearly very soft and thick with a particularly rich heather finish and a distinctive high ribbon.

It has the typical shapes of a European hat of the sixties and early seventies, very well finished, not a low level hat.

It was for sale in a Lyon hats shop, but it arrived in Italy as a brand new/old stock.
I have another very similar made in Germany by Ottmar Reich, soon on these screens

I love my CD BGG but I am out of damned cigars and with the border closed I can't buy from the US based online suppliers. Our tobacco taxes are horrendous and cigars approach double the price up here. I like your hat BUT I covet your cigar!!!

 

[St.Ignatz]

Thanks for the BG like.
Yep, the "$in tax" is tough on us sinners. Wish I could help.

[alanfgag]

I do love that hat.

Thanks Perry, I remember that it has inspired you in the past. ;^)

Wow, what a beautiful hat!! Perfection all around. You certainly wear it well, Alan. Looking sharp!!

Thanks for sharing Alan. Some hats you can pair with a bath robe and they will shine. This is such a hat.

Many thanks for the kind words.

I remember that one, Alan. How many grams?

It's a good early felt season wear at 2.8 ounces (79 grams).

cheers,
Alan
