Cool and sunny day with the first dead leaves

I chose a hat to match the colors of the period

Borsalino Grand Prix, the color of the felt is "Miele - Honey" and the ribbon "Sepia"

The felt is finished with a medium fur and is very soft.

I thank everyone for the appreciation dedicated to the "Lupo"-colored lobbia.
Congratulations on your hats that you show every day.
Have a nice day!

I've never bought a new Borsalino, this time I broke the rule with some apprehension.

The hat was in its dusty box, protected by nylon and completely dissolved rubber belt.

New and never used, it was bought as a gift, but it stayed in the closet for years.

Borsalino Qualità Extra Extra Superiore, model "Lobbia" size 6 1/2 French style. 60 cm. in EU, 7 1/2 US

"Lupo" is the color of the felt, the color of the ribbon match the felt

I thought about wearing it to make it still alive. Here it is on a sunny and cool day with a culpably late autumn.
Have a nice Sunday!

Edit For all the Borsalino palette of colors lovers: "Lupo" (wolf) is one of the most indefinable grays in the very extensive Borsalino range of grays. It has some hints of brown and the dye often interprets it darker than this with results very dissimilar from each other. This one in on the "clear" side :)
Not much around to beat a new old Borsalino lobbia, Daniele. Fabulous!

Oooh, I like the look of that one. Gorgeous!

What a great posting, you wowed me with the hat and I love the young couple with a heart in the background, just fabulous.

I don't have either the skills nor the tools to make any sort of hat, but I know a lady who can.
She made me a silverbelly-esque style of hat,

My missus' talent has been seen many a time on here, but today she excelled herself, not with what she made, but having seen and learned about the silverbelly, she bought something for me. I must try and make it last. Ha, some hope!

Agnoulita for some late Sunday evening supermarket shopping.

The lighting gives a misleading image of its true colour. It's grey rather than fawn as in the photo below.

That's quite the difference in colour! I like it either way though.

Well, I've been dutifully taking photos of my hats, but not posting, for some reason.

So I made a GIF...

Great, now I'm dizzy!

It's green, so I'll comment how much I like it's proportions! ;)

Outstanding as usual, Fabio.

Generous shape on that Borsa, Perry. Lovely.

Beautiful hat, Rick.

Good morning hatted/capped folks.

This morning I sauntered about under the brim of a Warren fedora.

Home I spent time admiring the leaf barren yard that was my labor of Sunday wearing a Dobbs Leisure Time fedora. A limb fell in the strong winds last evening and a little hand saw work was a short effort while wearing the vintage hat.

Morning coffee was under the brim of a Dalton fedora.

Like many hat folk I have a lot of derbies. They ranging in age from around 1900 to the derby revival of the 1950s-60s. This is perhaps the oldest... a little out of the ordinary with its deeply scooped brim and wide ribbon with no bow. I find a well fitting derby a joy to wear and nothing cuts through a stiff breeze with more ease than a stiff hat with a D'Orsay curl.
