FINALLY got back here!

Over the weekend we attended an event where a jacket was the decorum.
Hat: Vintage Silhouettes Oxblood. I always check the color in at least two sources of light...

Thanks Bowen. I kind of like it unruly. Then when my hair gets too long and wild, as it is now, it looks fairly kempt in comparison to the hat.

If I can wear straw and break the rules, you are allowed to go fluffy before the snow flies. Love this one.
Thanks Red. And the Mayser looks great today. It started out muggy here today and then turned to rain. I had to run to the store so I went with my Opplandske Nor Cap.

I took the rain gear with and made it all of about 3 blocks before I had to pull over and put it on.

Turned out to be an okay ride as I made it to my favorite thrift before the real downpour started.
And now that I'm home I'm sitting here under this Dutch topper that came in the mail today as a gift from Stefan.

Now one of these days I can pull out my tailcoat with the proper headgear.

Thanks,
Michael

My latest hat project that I started a few weeks ago. This is a Bradford Western 7X Quality. I could never afford the price for a vintage Strat so I made my own version of one. I just finished sewing on the brim binding and and ribbon work....I have more in the Conversion Corral

That's a great jacket, John. Love it.


Sent directly from my mind to yours.
Thanks Jim!
My brother got the patches for me when he went to a game in April. I just had to wait till the thrift store deities delivered a suitable jacket to sew them onto. It was made in NY, and then sold in SF, similar trip to the one the Giants made...
Too bad it's not a G-1. That would have been perfect! :)

That is what I would call vintage USMC.
