Decided to wear the NW Hats Whippet clone in Granite today. This is going to be a grab and go custom I think.

Dang that's nice, Red. The ribbon looks sort of maroon in one photo and rust in the other. Which is it, or something else altogether?

Thanks,
Michael

Outstanding colors Mike.
Mirtillo is looking awfully black on this Borsalino Leo today.

Super look Michael.
Ha ha, thanks Perry. I picked up these '60s LL Bean tattersall pants off of the costume rack at Goodwill the other day and figured that today's 80 degree temperatures would probably be my last opportunity of the season to try them out. The rest of it just kind of fell off the rack.

I take it that the straw hat there means you are seeing the hot weather too.

Thanks,
Michael

That is odd light, not a hint of blueberry. Stellar suit jacket.

The granite felt is really a chameleon. It can change colors in different light. The details are in a nice maroon/wine color.

Wearing my Penman this chilly morning.

Under the best of lights my eyes see it more as black than blue. But in the sun my camera usually sees it as blue. With today's clouds, strictly charcoal. Wish the pants had been there when I picked up that jacket a month or two ago. Big shouldered Armani heyday there.

Thanks,
Michael

Uncertain Monday, some ray of sunshine and passing clouds

Flechet "Pilote" Impermeable, without lining, no other indications about typr and color

It is another of the French hats with a particular felt, called here on FL heather

As his brothers worn in these weeks has a very soft and malleable felt, the color is astounding.
It is a blue-celestial with tiny white insertions that varies according to the light

The ribbon is like the others very imaginative and a touch of unpredictability

A special thank you for the likes of last week. I am grateful

Unusual for this time of year, but I'll take it.

That is odd about the color. As I recall... the blueness of yours is very subtle. Mine is pretty darned "blueberry" as it should be given the name. I wonder if the way that it was taken care of before it moved in with you affected it's color or if there was some screw-up with a dye batch.

Regardless... hellofahat.

That is wonderful, Daniele.

That ribbon is delightfully imaginative.
