A surprisingly cool morning. Style-Rite heathered porkpie makes it to morning coffee.

I'd like to see more of your interesting jacket :)

It’s a heavy cotton waffle weave, should be soaked in water before entering a burning building. Doesn’t appear to have been used.

Well, my number came up....off for jury selection I go in my favorite straw. You guessed it, that's not my happy face today. The whole morning will be sitting in a crowded room with about 200 other potential jurors, Austin is a pretty big town and the Texas justice system is a very bizarre process.

Wearing my Whiskey 3X Resistol refurb this evening. It's been torn down and reblocked. The brim was also trimmed and reshaped. It sports a tall straight crown that's creased to my preferred Teardrop. Everything original to the hat was reused....and it now has a Longhair finish. I'll have more later in The Conversion Corral and in the Western Anyone threads...

Some Rockabilly with Gene Vincent



Another super job, Terry. I really like the colour on that Resistol. Very unusual.

Yes, I believe it is a vintage Japanese firefighter's coat, though I expect they use higher tech gear today.
One would hope [emoji4]

That is one cool find, Alan. You can have much fun trying to find out which one of your many fantastic hats best suits the coat.

Thank you Steve! I wish I liked the color as well as you. I can't say that I've actually warmed up to it very much. I like the way it turned out and it's a nice hat but I just can't get pass the color. Although Ive seen the color on other people and it looks good on them...just not on me.

Your collection of straws and panamas is inspiring, Michael. Colour me envious!
Thanks Stefan.

Still felt weather here:)

I thought the center dent it had made it look out of proportion, so I changed it quickly.

Another pair of great selections from your collection.

Looking sharp as usual Michael.
Thanks WK. You've get a great looking hat and outfit on today. Bummer about the jury duty. I almost had it last summer and then they settled the case the day before it would have started. So I'm safe for another year or so now.

Thanks,
Michael
