Hello old friends

The cooler weather brings the felt back out ... So today I'm enjoying one of the finest bespoke pieces I've ever handled

Hope you are all well

I come back after a long and strange summer that lasted until late September. Impossible to wear felt hats, today thanks to a cool day here is the first autumn felt.

A low-class hat, those that wear out in years of intense use and hard to find, so nothing elegant, no XXX, no beaver or high-sounding names.

It is a hat made in France probably in the sixties, therefore with a short brim and a medium crown.

It is called Magdinier and has only one peculiarity: it has a heathered felt that is difficult to find today, nothing but the felt is marked "Chinè Satinè "Impermeable (satin heather, waterproof)

A Stetson No.1 Quality hat purchased at the factory store in the 1930s... not by me.

Fabulous

A real head turner!

Well, hell, there's a surprise. Looks from the debossment it's getting some head time. Whatever happened to the one with the pencil curl? Did you keep that one?



I always think that sounds like the name of a summer camp in upstate Minnesota. Nice hat.

Thanks Jim.

Looks great, Terry. Hard to believe it’s the same hat.

Thank you Brent! I still have a little ways to go on it, yet.

Hey back atcha, brother. How's that kid's fastball?

I'm about this close (holds fingers reeeeealll close together) to ordering another Gannon. I haven't gotten a new one in a few years. I'm thinking a powder blue Strat clone, but Eric's recent Playboy clone has me thinking...

OK, maybe two?

yeah... it's been years for me as well uncle Jim
you need that Strat clone!!!

... we are working on that fastball ...

View attachment 264225 I was going to put this in the "surviving the elements" thread as I worn in in a light rain today but there is almost nothing to see. Its a Resistol Stagecoach in chestnut reworked by VS.

Superb colour on that hat; lovely.

Nothing says autumn more than a heather felt. Good to see you here, Daniele.

I missed that very specific crease around here. Wonderful hat, Anthony.

It does take some getting used to, Brent. More so than other hats.

That felt never disappoints.

This hardly gets any wear at all. Not because it's a bad hat, but to be honest it can't compete with the big boys.

Stephen L Stetson
I really should wear this one more, but sitting in its box under a lot of other boxes it's not a grab and go hat.
