Love them all, Stefan, but the brim curl on the brown Mossant is incredible.

Thank you, Brent.

All of the above. What a beautiful photo!

Always so complimentary, you are a true gentleman, Sir. Tina said that she thought that I always wore the grey Stetson with that shirt and how good the nutmeg colour compliments the shirt.

Given that kind of praise I just had to wear my cream straw Gamboa today. A gift from Tina. I wore it with the shirt and trousers that she made for me, along with shoe artisan Colin Johnson's Gibson style shoes.

You set the standard!

I know it's too early but since I'm gonna be out of commission for a while I am wearing straw now. A Humming Bird Yeddo boater for services this morning.

You set the standard!

Thank you Bill, your Sunday service attire is always something special, got to look your best for your maker.

Thanks Robert. 54 this year? Amazing -- you two must have married in your early teens. The only plan that I know of for now is to cruise around in her Christmas/Birthday/Anniversary gift (as soon as the dealership adds some accessories and I hand them a check -- then get back to selling hats to try and cover some of that debt).

Whatever the cost Bob, it's worth it. The lady looks like she's loving it. Back in 1980's Tina fell in love with a French car, it was called a Talbot Rancho, dubbed a very poor Range Rover. Nonetheless she loved it, even though it was under powered, had countless mechanical issues and was a pig to drive. Three years on, it had to go.

A gentleman head to toe, Robert. Nice to have a bit of sun to go with it!

To you Stefan, I doff my hat and say thank you very much. Appreciated. Tina would never post either here or elsewhere, I know she enjoys reading Lounger's comments though. How flustered she becomes when her work is complimented. So, on her behalf, thank you, to you and everyone else, who put in such a kind word, praising her talent.

Chapeau Grataloup the last few days.

I'll be glad to see the back of the building behind me. It's Denmark's largest hospital in Copenhagen. My youngest daughter has been holed up there since Thursday. Hopefully, she'll be able to come home tomorrow. Fingers crossed! View attachment 417408 View attachment 417409

Thanks Bob, Randall, and Stefan @steur. Nothing serious, thankfully. A chronic illness, debilitating while it lasts, but she's a tough cookie and always bounces back.

Hoping she's home tomorrow.

This week had me facing storm winds mostly and by chance I chose to face that with a cast of homburgs. Almost as good facing strong winds as bowlers.

I’m really digging both of those Mossants! So much presence!
Gonna have to dig my only one out soon.

You do look like you just ended a long road trip. The hat looks great though!



Congrats to you both on the Silver Anniversary Gary and Etsuko! You appear far too young to have reached that milestone though. Ours is coming up in a couple of weeks. It will be ... uh ... hold on ... our 39th (!?). Then again, maybe you are old enough.

Thank you, Bob! So glad the drive is done, time for a little R&R.

I suppose, Ross, it’s pretty cool to own a Stetson with a LOT# starting with a 4.
Me, I’m on the lookout for #0001.

Sarcasm rules.

Ha! Cheers Randall! With your eye for hats, I’m sure you’ll find one (maybe two?) within the next few months. I feel another vintage hat season may be upon us.

Who is that unmasked man in the rare Stetson?

I literally shaved my face blanket right after finishing the 4 day drive cross country, and regretted it immediately again haha. Tough learning lesson.

A few more better light pics from today. I’ll need to have it cleaned up more before I share it in the pre 1940’s thread.

Great old hat!
Welcome back to the east coast and the Atlantic Ocean, Ross!
But dude, grow the chin do back.

Etsuko and I turn 25 on Wednesday. We’re both working on the day, but we both have Monday off and both took Tuesday off.
We’re celebrating our silver wedding anniversary with a three day weekend in Kobe - me in my Hornskov Mogul and Etsuko in her Akubra Leisure Time.

Thank you, Randall. They did know how to make a fine hat.
