Great looking Resistol, Rick. That's some serious pling bing you're wearing on your wrists and fingers there. Lovely to see the joy in your faces at being able to eat out again. Stay safe, my friend.

This was yesterday, Sunday. Some of the restaurants are starting to open up here. Me and Mrs. quik finally got out for a bite and some fun hanging out. The hat is a Resistol 10X refurbished by David Gibson.

Wore one of the 5 new hats I just received from Stefan this week. Stetson Premier Lancer. More in the New Hats thread.

A bright, sunny, but cold and crisp winter's day. My red nose shows just View attachment 306023 how cold it was :)
Excellent, Steve. Looks great on you. Good to see you got some sunshine as well, even if it was a bit nippy!

I'd been thinking about this Borsalino for a week or two, so I rooted around this morning until I found it.

Have a good day,

Glad to see you found it, Michael. It deserves to be worn and that might be the right kind of weather for it.

Knox for services this morning. Note to self *take pictures before wearing face mask as to keep the beard presentable. Removed the jacket and tie before heading to lunch at a local restaurant.

Very nice, Bill. Those colours work really well.

Silvermist Gannon. A bit wet, and slightly frozen, Sunday morning.

Everything that one could want from a hat, Jim. Perfect.

In truth, I’ve been wearing this nutria Gannon in natural almost every day since I received it.

Well, success needs celebration, Brent. And that hat is a success for sure.

Very nice, Johnny. Very striking bow design.

Low crown Biltmore Peluche with a 2 & 1/4 " brim this Sunday morning.

Nice petting hat, Reggie.

View attachment 306123

Mallory Aristocrat Quality
Warm Pewter Felt
4 3/4 Crown as shaped - 5 1/2 Open
1 3/8 Antique Pewter Grosgrain Ribbon
2 1/2 brim with 3/8 grosgrain binding

Hat number 7 of the Mystery Hat Box Nine. This may very well be my favorite of the lot. I would guess this was Mallory’s take on the Whippet. And what a fine job they did! A lot to like about this hat... the color of the felt, ribbon and binding to the dimensions and crease... it all just works in my eyes. The manufacturing tag has this hat labeled at 7 1/4 however for whatever reason it as a perfect size 7 fit. Two more hats to come from the Mystery box. They will be hard pressed to outshine this Malloy.

It does have everything to be a favourite, Joe. Lovely hat.

Another great week Stefan. Glad you were able to find a window to get some hat time
Thanks, Joe. Have to work a little harder this week to catch up;)

Beautiful, Rick. And good to seize the opportunity!

Fabulous, Perry.

Good morning. I watched the US Weather report and see snow and storms. No new snow here. A blue hued 30' s Candian Brock fedora was my deliberate choice to add some color to our gray day.

Cheers, Eric -
Stunning, Eric. There must be some way to replicate that awesomeness.

Monday dedicated to Borsalino "lobbia2 and so it will be for the first week of February.
View attachment 306205
Borsalino Qualità Extra Extra Superiore size 6 so it becomes a 59cm EU size or a 7 3/8 in the US.
View attachment 306206
The paper label tells of a hardly seen color "Ceilon" and a type of hat "Gulaela" that is most widely available on the market.
View attachment 306207 This Borsalino was most likely made in the 1950s.
View attachment 306208
Its shape is one of those I prefer in the "lobbie" built by Borsalino as well as the contrasting combination of the ribbon and the ribbon of the brim, very malleable was made for the Italian market.
View attachment 306209
Thank you for your appreciation on the Borsalino lobbie shown last week.
A compliment to all of you for the continuous cascade of great quality hats shown.
Could the colour be "crilon"? I have that one on the list. "Ceilon" would be a new one (not a bad thing of course). Whatever the colour, it is a magnificent lobbia, Daniele.

I see a little cleanup shoveling might be in order today.

Pre-war, when the world was still in black and white:). Beautiful hat as always, Alan.
