Wonderful Borsalino Adrian, that signature snap really makes this hat shine. Great looking suit too, stylin!

First time wearing this Bowler from the early 1900’s. Needs a new sweatband but other than that it’s in fantastic shape. Fabio, our fellow lounger, was my inspiration for this purchase.

Very nice 101. It is a higher end Derby of the era. Love that liner. Pity about the sweat, cool color.

Love the colors on this Dobbs. Quite an interesting liner logo, a period replacement perhaps?

Resistol back bow for WAR Wednesday.

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Always dig a back bow. This one is a sweetie Jim. The center dent works on this one nicely.

Threw on a Fed IV today, with rain in the forecast.

Super outfit, MB.

 

[scottyrocks]

Yeah. I hate that damb compulsion.

Better than a damp compulsion. Or maybe not.

I am able to get out of the house this morning for a supply run. Keeping with the WAR Wednesday theme and solidarity with Jim, I chose the Lee "SmartLee" back bow porkie. This hat dates from 1956 based on provenance from the seller, her dad bought it on their honeymoon. Also a picture of our master bath new sinks and granite. Kitchen is an exploded state right now.

No, it is better.

No worries. It's good information to have out there for all to learn from. I'd hate to end up with a fez...

Hey: nothing wrong with a good fez!

That is a very beautiful hat, Richard. Felt and ribbon go so well together.

Stellar Richard!!
Some of the finest most unique felt out there. Fun just to sit around and run your finger around the inside top of the crown and watch.
Sound familiar??

Good to see everyone again. The Sixteen Fiddy has such a great finish, and great color.

Thanks Red. It's one of the nicer felts I have. Great floppy Barbisio for you and good to see the remodel is progressing.

Thanks, Michael. Very nice combo on you again today.

Thanks Stefan. Spiffy Resistol Back Bow you have going today.

Greetings All:
Today....since i follow all the rules and yield unconditionally, as a junior member to Seniority and read the memo, wouldn’t be right not to throw a little Italy in the mix.
So...WAR, Borsalino, backbow with a stingy. Interesting the 3 step backbow and 3 stitch over-welt.
Be well. Bowen
