Walk to enjoy the warmth, accompanied by an ancient Thibet made in France expressely for A. Meer - Strasbourg. The hat is more than a hundred years old and is a blend of fur and wool with a shape that can be dated to the early years of the century. It is wide, but a loved one

It has the features of a homburg without the ribbon edging of the brims.
Imposing with full crown, it has an indescribable charm.

Thank you for your likes which I reciprocate with my heart

A beauty!

Looks great, Tim. Reminds me, I need to break out my Cambridge bowler for the holidays.

This morning I'm sporting my latest from American Hat Company Frontier Line. Steel Gray grizzly finish Top Hat with contrasting color ribbon and brim edge binding. This one puts a grin on my face every time.

Wolfbrae heather felt Pork Pie. Gary @The Shoe mentioned this one the other day in the Wolfbrae thread. Inspired me to give it a spin today.

Weather warmed up a bit so I went home and changed for the afternoon( Crocketts not very big and I only live about 8 blocks from downtown) Georgous weather thats perfect for Denim and Open Roads. Tree lighting on top of the Courthouse and Christmas parade was last night. Bought some Christmas gifts, had a beer, had a coffee and visited with some friends... good day

Christmas in Crockett is THE big event here in town all year... About 300 vendors, bunch of food trucks, and unlike most weekends, most downtown businesses are open. If anyones ever in East Texas the weekend before Thanksgiving, drop me a line and come on over! Its a fun weekend and Ive got a couple of spare guestrooms ( we only have one decent hotel in town lol

Echter Mayser, "Superbe", date stamped June 3, 1950. The black felt has a very soft hand. Found this Soft Felt back in 2019.

Masyer's Hutmanufactur, A. G. in Ulm Königreich Württemberg, 09/25/1891, Post Card Receipt. Königreich Württemberg / Kingdom of Württemberg. Found this postcard back in 2015.

Thank you, my friend.

VERY nice, Steve!!

Thanks, Mark.

I can really recommend Robert at Wolfbrae Custom Hatters @belfastboy for bespoke hats and refurb work of all kinds.

If he lived in Europe, I'd surely avail myself of his services more often.

Randy, I was thinking of you and your love of Cambridge Bowlers when Timmy posted his Topper.

It's definitely a stylish hybrid.

"Superbe" is definitely the right superlative for your Mayser, Steve. The sweatband looks as soft and supple as the felt.

Great overall shape and dimensions. What are they, btw?
