And he was right. You might have some competition if members of the FL had a convention/get-together in your town, but otherwise, I think you could rest assured you were rockin' the winner.Thanks, Mark! This one garners the most compliments from folks when out in public.
A black dude came up to me in the local grocery store and said, “Man, you know you be styling the best drip widdat hat wherever you at!”
Indeed—going strong!
What does OPS era mean?
That one is definitely German. East Germany when that was still a thing. The VEB Vereinigte Hutwerke Guben made hats under several brandnames. This is one of them. Unusual style though. I think Mossant made a similar model, so they may have copied that.
Thanks Stefan, the watch was a gift from my lady, it's a real one, no batteries, you have to rotate the winder to make it go. It's not brand new either, much better it's an Omega, I think it dates back to the late 40's or maybe early 50's. I do cherish it.
Gustin Vintage Heavyweight Sweatshirt - Natural Rainbow Nep - $119 Rugged 14oz cotton that gets better with every wear. 
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - #395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks. 
Himel Bros. - The Ross Mk. 1 Leather Jacket Classic D-pocket motorcycle/aviator style jacket. 
Mossant (love that deep brown colour) and second Gorasgu for me. But all as spectacular as usual.
Except for the ribbon that Hornskov Broker almost looks like the Stetson that I refurbished.
Similar. Mine looks a bit higher at the front an has a mid width ribbon with a one-sided bow.
Good looking hat, for sure.
