Dang, Greg!
The hat is spectacular; those boots are just incredible. Easier to get in & out of?! Fantastic approach and look!

Every time I open the box containing this type of hat I wonder whether to keep them or sell them

They are three French hat in melousine with a shape and finish to be worn with a black or charcoal gray coat while waiting in the foyer for the start of the show

Extremely elegant and with an unusual shape, they are a representation of a fashion accessory that is now neglected.

Fléchet Qualité Superieure - Fabrication Spéciale, size 60 cm or 7 1/2 in the US. Qualité Sans Souci, the color is black. Arrived new from, some years ago from A. Meer in Strasbourg - France after many years of sleep on the shelf

Every time I have the temptation to sell some, then I like them too much, but perhaps some could go around the world to make some other "evening hats" enthusiast happy

An early (pre-WWI) American made hat. Hawes Von Gal must have been skilled in promotion - examples of their print advertisements are many and well preserved - but examples of their $3 hats are scarcely seen on the vintage market and soft hats like this one are rarer still. It is beautifully made and finished, though the long hair felt is somewhat rustic compared to Stetson hats of this period that I have had the good fortune to handle. The outdoor shot shows the color most accurately. I hope you enjoy seeing it.

Thank you, Charlie and yes, these I can get off without using a boot jack but at 13” tall, there is a bit of lacing that goes along with them.

A very special hat, Alan, thanks for sharing.

It's no surprise that you are pleased Brent, I admired Randall's work on your hat in the photos that you posted on his restoration thread. It's exquisite.

My life insurance company wants my medical renewed so I am off to the doctor's later. My bespoke Gamble & Gunn will have the receptionist smiling. The first time that I wore it to the doctor's surgery she asked what kind of hat it was. guessing that she had not heard of the Fedora I said: "A black one."

Good morning. Morning escapades were under the brim of a Stetson Whippet of Canadian origins.

I enjoyed a walkabout with coffee under the brim of a Stetson OR (fawn hued).

I ran a couple of errands wearing a Gannon Playboy (silverbelly beaver felt with liner removed).

Cheers, Eric -

Thank you for your likes on the hats shown these last few days.

To keep wearing hats, considering that I don't often go to the source of supply, I brought home a box full of "forgets"

Today a Misto Borsalino. Sold in my town a few years ago.

Borsalino Qualità Extra Extra Superiore, the color is "M. Volga" and the type of ribbon, written in pen in red ink and "Foe 214" Unlined.

The size is 6 or 59 cm or 7 3/8 in the US. Remarkable is the felt which is finished with a short fur, in gray and shades like other Misto Borsalino. The ribbon is patterned with colors that reflect the colors of the felt.
Have a nice day and and continue with the daily hat parade
