Temps are cool enough to warrant a GREEN Borso from Bulgaria

(sorry about the color, Stefan)

Never apologize for green. ;)

I'm wearing old faithful today.this Sovereign was my first intentional move to fur felt from Scala wool.
The flang is a bit soft on the left side.

@Michael A posted a great photo earlier today and it made me think of victorians who sat and enjoyed their gardens. So naturally I had to make the photo black & white.

Thanks for the enhanced artwork Garrett. I wish I had that tree that is behind Muir in my yard.

That was a beautiful green Borsalino you were displaying today. A high lust factor on that one.

Thanks,
Michael

I have been as indecisive as the weather the past day or so. None of these stayed on the head for very long. Lady friend is hiding, so as not to be recognized attending a mariachi concert that opened a new outdoor concert venue in town. I thought they were kinda fun (until they started covering tunes by Nirvana and Led Zeppelin)!

My brother in law has a great shot of his grandpa, uncle and great grandpa sitting on straight back kitchen chairs out in the yard. They're relaxing, but in no way sloppy. One's in shirtsleaves, but his suit coat is folded nicely on a bench, which is to the side under a tree. Ties are a little askew, but the shirts are fastened up to the neck. They're all staring directly into the camera, and each of them have a hat sitting on the grass, brim down, at the front corner of their chair.
I've always liked to speclate which hat had the bottle under it.

Here I am again with the second straw Borsalino arrived last week

Panama Quito Borsalino size 60 cm.

Made like its brother in 1998, it is a magnificent-fitting hat

The straw is a bit stiff and by definition less flexible than a Montecristi

The interior finishes are superb, the best I have seen on a panama
The dimensions are: crown 10 cm high. brim 7 cm. and the ribbon is black.
Light and very comfortable hat for the hot season

I am now back in the sleepy quiet of the Italian summer, saying thank you for your likes on Borsalino Sisol;)
Very beautiful hat. The fact it's the second one in quick succession would explain the Cheshire in your smile.

Kids and Grandkids came over today with a Father's Day Ice Cream Cake! Also broke out my Kevin McAndrew refurb. Not a very good picture....

Before: (pictures below are from last Winter)

Reblocked it and straightened it up all around. Old hat projects can be seen in the background which have since been finished and out of my wife's dining room...

After the refurb with a Cattleman crease and with the addition of a matching color 3/8 thin ribbon with an OR style bow...

Very nice work. You would be my wife's hero if I told her about your hats being out of the dining room.
Best not to mention it.

This was part of a deal with Stefan from last year...I forgot I had it.

Not remembering you have a hat and then finding said hat. It’s like finding buried treasure. Or, it’s a sign old age. Wait..what was I talking about?
