Wouldn't that be great, Brent :)

Thanks, Steve. It’s nice to be able to dress up just a bit now and then. I was in business attire for years and I sort of miss it. Not to say that my garb today would have been acceptable back them: more garden party or date attire. Maybe by summer Covid will be under control and we will have some occasions to get with friends and dress up a bit.

Well, you did get the better bit of weather today, Steve. The Baldini looks fine in any weather.

First outing in the new-to-me Premier Stetson from Canuckistan.

Nice one, Jim and that pie looks good enough to eat.

Very nice, Michael. I like the way that Open Road is creased.

Stetson Stratoliner Vita Felt - Light Powder Blue
4 3/4 unlined crown as shaped
3/8 light bluish white grosgrain ribbon
2 5/8 brim with 1/8 matching binding
86 grams

“All things come to those who wait” This one took some patience but it has now arrived and it is spectacular. An early Stetson Stratoliner in light powder blue Vita Felt. A wonderfully light weight unlined hat checking in at 86 grams. The thin felt presents a sleek sharp crease. It includes the super cool embroidered Stratoliner tip patch and beautiful blue rear sweat seam bow. This was the hat I was bidding on when I fell and nearly crashed through my sliding glass door a few weeks back. An ideal combination of weight, color, styling and shape that should definitely have this be a daily wear kinda hat for me but will also have me battling the urge to want to “save” this one for special occasions.

A HUGE thank you to @BobHufford for the tip off on this one.

The felt color is a very light powder or pale sky blue... my phone camera wanted to photograph it a much richer blue tone that I tried to color correct as best I could. But I thought I would include the original ones just for fun.

Superb. No need to wait for a special occasion.
