What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[The Shoe]

Today I was in my vintage Stylemaster.

 

[The Shoe]

Nice job.


Buy a spray bottle at a 100 yen store, fill it with water, and drench the leather and surrounding areas in spray, including the back side of the leather. Repeat three times, after letting it dry naturally. You will have a perfect fit. Believe me, patience, and it works to downsize a leather sweatband hat...

I finally got around to doing this. First spray done. I’ll let you know how it goes.

Very nice, Jeff. It kind of surprised me to find a Cavanagh that didn't have the cavanagh edge.

Looking good, Gary. Hats, coats and scarf.

Some hats remaining for this weeks' Italian week edition. Let's see.

Borsalino Ipersca Turchese

Garibaldi (probably made by Cervo)

Borsalino Landasti Misto Ruitor

The year 2020 at least brought me these two borsalino's (even if I did have to wait for four months until they got here).

 

[Rmccamey]

Those two Borsalino's seem to have less taper on the sides than many of the modern versions I see, or is it just the camera angle?

It's not the camera angle, Randy. They are fairly straight sided, but these are hats from the forties or early fifties.

Cold day with pearl sky, magnificent light for photographing.
For the Homburg & Festivity series, today is the turn of a "Diplomatique" hat from the 1930s.

This is what the address of the "A. Meer" shop in Strasbourg indicates in its locations that determine the age of the hats.

"Etablissement Ecuyer & Thomas - Chazelles sur Lyon" The size is 6 1/2 or 60 centimeters. Unlined and soft felt with remarkable malleability.

No other indication because inside the sweatband, very light in line with the felt, there is no label to give information.

The color of the felt is incredible, ranging from burnt brown to violet, as well as the ribbons that adorn it.
The dimensions are impressive like all homburgs made in France.

Happy Sunday to you all. Thanks for the likes and compliments on your magnificent hats

A Knox Twenty fedora went out for a dog soirée. Love the felt quality and "Custom Edge" in this fedora.

Cheers, Eric -

Fantastic hat, Daniele. Incredible colour!

A nice sunny day, a rarity this time of the year around here. I picked this modern Stetsonian for mass today.

Today was a two hat day. Chuck E. Cheese inflatable top hat that our youngest son “won” playing games after eating pizza.

This homburg is just wonderful Daniele. And it looks amazing on you.

Brummel's Fedora on yet another grey day. The sun shone out of a blue sky yesterday. Sadly, I forgot to take a photo of yesterday's hat.
Some great headwear to kick off the New Year fellow Loungers. You've had me drooling.
Have a great week, friends.

 

[Steve1857]

Absolutely outstanding, Daniele. Hats from A. Meer never disappoint. The colour combinations and proportions on this one highlight what superb hat makers the French were back then.

Two Stetsons yesterday.... one a Musketeer...

one a rival..... Stephen L Stetson

 

[Short Balding Guy]

Walkabout in a Stetson Whippet (pine green). We have a combo of rim ice and hoar frost.

Home and eating some lunch on the deck wearing a Royal DeLuxe Stetson Gun Club. Pine green hat again because I can.

 

[Steve1857]

Thank you kindly, dear Panos. All is well here apart from it being cold and grey.
A superb Mallory Homburg you picked up from Brent.
