Greetings:
If there were a modern hat i would buy, it would be this one, in this color and configuration. I can’t think of any others.
Very nice.

The lines of this one just screams pre-WWII. Looks like it has held up quite well. Like I said on FB, the tall straight crown more than makes up for a "lesser" brim width. All around cool old hat Bill.

Yes it very very nice. I have not fully committed myself to get rid of it. But I know I will very seldom wear it and for practical reasons I should let it go. An interesting thing about it is the color. The color name on the tag is the "N" word. In my mind I think that also dates the hat. I put it along the lines of Tom Sawyer, Uncle Tom's Cabin, etc...

Here are a few pictures of the labels. I have the middle letters of the "N" word blocked out in the picture but they are legible on the tag. And check out the union label. I love the "Be Just and Fear Not". It's a 7 1/8 UK which is a 7 1/4 US.

Straw and guayabera, looks like you're ready for some Salsa Matt.

It's awesome all around Bill.

I love the deep brown color. It reminds me of one of my (much younger) Knoxes

This morning I returned to Italy in the choice of the hat

Albertini - Argo - Marca Registrata 1817

The hat seems to be a find encapsulated over time. It is new and never used and seems to arrive for the workmanship and the finishing touches from the 40s.

The felt (Feltro rasato) is very light and of a "light nut" color. There are no indications of the manufacturer about the color and type of hat. The size plate is in centimeters 59, French size 6 and UK size 7 1/4.

The Albertini hat factory, founded in 1817, was the first hat manufacturer to use the machinery of the then emerging modern industry. He has "exported" his activities to England by setting up a factory after WWII

Thanks for the likes on the blueish Flechet of yesterday
Buona giornata

Simply beautiful.

New-to-me Resistol on a windy day. I sure miss letting Bob Roberts know the status of the local weather...

Superb, Bob. Love that ribbon treatment.

Rainy day so I'm wearing a vintage English fedora. Gledhill's from the 20/30s (I think). Very nice hat but I think I'm gonna have to sell or trade it. The brim is 2 3/8" and because of that I just hardly ever wear it.

I think it's a gorgeous hat, Bill. I like the 30's look of it.

Keeping with the custom hat theme this week. Going to see if I can make it last. Today for a few errands, the 1942 Rose Bowl hat from Mike Miller. My first custom, now I have a stack of them.

Even the first one was spot on, Mike.

Fashionably late? What an entrance though!

The wearer doesn't need to shout; he exudes it!

Thanks Stefan!
Class, huh?
I always thought that was just too much earwax...

Thought it looked familiar. Good to see it getting some sunshine. Great look, John.

Thanks! I like to give it some head time whenever a blue hat is called for. I ned to find more blue hat occasions!

Nice quartet Stefan.

Thank you, Perry. Not the worst of them I'll admit.

Thanks, Stefan. Don't look too close. It's got some miles on it.
