Great 40s Dalton, Max. Wonderful ribbon and bow treatment, and colour. They really state, this is a quality hat.

On the Tenth Day of StingyMas…

A Stingy Hat Trick so to speak

Stetson Twenty The Sovereign with Mode Edge… brown felt with burgundy ribbon.

Can an homburg or a bowler be considered a stingy? Well here is one of each with tiny brims…

Julius Garfinckel and Co homburg. Gifted to me by @Rmccamey some time back. Ya know come to think of the brim binding on this one is so stingy it might almost be a lords hat.

Tress and Co Brown Bowler…. About as short a brim as you will find on a bowler

Thanks. Reddy and I go way back. I used to handle his light work.

I just bought this on a coffee cup for my Boss, I work for an electric cooperative. Were you an electrician or in the power industry?

Great hat, and the sunglasses work well with it too.

Does 2 1/4 inch qualify me for Stingymas? Dark blue Borsalino Anello that I picked up from a fellow Japan-based Lounger for work today.

That is just superb, it has an air of 1940's Britain about it. Have you ever seen the crime drama: "Foyle's War?"

I haven’t. I shall have to look it up.

Borsalino Misto Ionio for some last minute Christmas shopping.

Stylemaster in Bluegrass Green for a family day trip to the Holy City of Charleston, SC. We ended the day at James Island Park to see the Christmas Lights.

Have a safe and blessed day.

Nah, nothing like that. Reddy was more prominent in advertising, etc. when I was a kid, so I remember him from that. There used to be a power station you'd pass on I-75 south of town that had a 2-3 storey Reddy Kilowatt bolted to the side of the building. I always thought he was pretty cool.

Looks great, Steve.
I’m just trying to think of the description one of the Lounger’s granddaughter’s used. Not fuzzy…was it cuddly? Can’t remember. Either way, that’s a lovely fuzzy cuddly hat.
Sorry to hear you can’t get back to see family in the Mother Country (as my grandparents used to call it). I haven’t made it back to New Zealand for nearly nine years. We are keen to get over to Europe at some stage, but our first trip after the Covid thing settles down will likely be to New Zealand.

Morning escapades in a VS thin ribbon fedora (dove beaver felt with ribbon treatment inspired by the venerable Stratoliner).

Cheers, Eric -

Thanks Gary.
Ja, it will be nice to be able to travel again without worrying about covid.
Great looking Stingymas Borsalino BTW. I too can recommend Foyle's War. Apart from it being a very well made police series, it's a period piece set in WWII London with lots of wonderful hats and clothes of the day to admire

So, Eric, it was your Strat look-a-like that inspired Esther when she made me something similar. I should have known that such a hat aficionado's superb lid is what the lady had in mind:

I am humbled sir. Grand hat that you have proudly worn the past couple of years.


I headed to work this morning wearing a vintage Stetson Playboy. It is a hat that I gallivant proudly under.

Best to all, Eric -
