Two great looking hats, Eric. I really like that colour, it suits you, too. Super ribbons, especially the thin ribbon and bow on the VS.Got to love a day off! I went out to run a couple of errands this morning in a VS fedora that was inspired by the vintage 40's Stetson Stratoliners. The hats felt is a favorite hue of mine (dove (light cooler gray) beaver felt with matching ribbon treatment).
Back home finds me working the grill in a Gannon (silverbelly beaver felt with charcoal trimmings). Cheers (locally brewed sour beer).
Best, Eric -
As usual, love your outfit. As always, your hat is more than just the icing on the cake. Super looking Homburg both in colour, shape and style.It is really starting to cool off in the NE. Bright brisk beautiful Sunday.
Have a great week!

'Cause black hats matter...
I looks great, T.Not quite finished with this one yet. I still have to clean up the ribbon before I actually sew it back on and I still need to do a little more tweaking on the crease. I'll have more later in the Conversion Corral when I'm completely finished with it. This is a faded CA Quality Melton that a fellow Lounger sent me. I took it apart and completely reworked it. The fur felt quality may not be up there but I like the way it came out anyway. It reminds of a hat that a blue collar working stiff may have worn back in the day. Nice and casual....
Although not intended to be a replica, I drew some inspiration for this hat from the fedora that Charlton Heston wore in the movie, "The Greatest Show On Earth". I liked the over all appearance of Heston's hat in this movie...some things I didn't like about it, so I put my touches on the Melton refurb
Thank you, Steve. That is a fun hat to dress under. LOLAs usual, love your outfit. As always, your hat is more than just the icing on the cake. Super looking Homburg both in colour, shape and style.

Wow, nice hat, Max. Pretty cool shirt too.Wearing my new Stetson Flagship. Just picked my brother in law up at the airport, and I am on the way to leave six hats with Ignacio.
Fortunately, this Flagship just has a wrinkled ribbon. The size is fine.

Happy Veterans Day to all that have served and continue to serve. MUCH appreciated!
This was from awhile back (when I could get my Dad to sort of look up for a selfie -- damned Alzheimer's). He is a Korean War vet.

Great color on a great hat! Have we seen that overcoat before? I love the color. It is hard to find a green 100% wool top coat these days unless you have it made.One degree off of the record low this morning. A bit warmer now under the Marathon

Haven't decided if I'm going to run downtown for a couple of errands today or groundhog it again. I did see my shadow.

Splinter my friend I really appreciate your vintage hats especially your pre-World War I collection; they are truly a hat historical education. I also totally dig your vintage clothing collection and your efforts to blend your hats with garments from the same period. I said all of that as a preface to my initial thoughts about your current post. That overcoat is fantastic! What a statement piece in its day and even now. Love it. Thanks for sharing.c.1910s Eakle "Genuine Beaver"
