What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Steve1857]

Delion Fedora. A summer acquisition from Stefan.

Thankfully this French Fedora from 1955 was too big for him, but the right size for me.

Today was the first day I was able to wear it. Goodbye summer and thank you. Hello felt hat season.

Goodbye summer and thank you. Hello felt hat season.

So I guess we’ll be seeing a bit more of you around here. I know you never exactly went away, but welcome back, anyway.

Switched out to a Borsalino I got in the mail today. A silvery 5X Marque Gran Luxe. I think the model is Drudosti and color is Palladio which may be marble?

Fantastic!!

Love the colour of that Whippet Joe, I told Tina that I might have found just the hat to go with a new pair of trousers that she is making for me. The lady came and had a look, admired your hat and said: "He needs to stand near a razor!" Oh dear.

Thank you Robert. It does appear the lady is correct. And to think I thought of having a shave before taking the pics.

Looking good there, Steve. Really like the brim curve on that Delion.

That is a super cool one, Don, and a model we have not seen before. Please post it in the Borsalino thread as well, for posterity.

The Mayser, and the Philip Marlowesque trench coat is as equally desirable.
Oh dear, where's my manners, I was so taken by that hat and coat that I forgot
to say: "Good morning Stefan."
Good morning to you good Sir.

Weather permitting, we shall be in our MG at Christchurch later, after we have been to church.
Later still I am treating the lady to Sunday lunch at our favourite watering hole.
The bespoke hat was neglected looking, but Tina steamed it, re-blocked it and made a new hatband ribbon. I'm rather taken with it.

Thank you very much, Robert. Much appreciated. Hope you can still have some good weather for your day at Christchurch; you deserve it. And a lunch with the lady is always quality time; enjoy!

By now most of y'all know that I'm crazy about these long hair type hats, no matter if they are large brim, stingy brim or western style hats. Today's choice is this Stetson Twenty Five Gun Club that came to me battered and beaten up with a cattlemen crease. I brushed it good, steamed it then gave it this Gus style crease because that's what the hat was telling me. Sometimes ya just gotta listen.lol.
Hope y'all have a good 'un !

Back up over 30°C today, so back into straw. Bailey Toyo for a Costco run.

Etsuko was in a Toucan Collection hat. It doesn’t say what it’s made of, but I think this is also paper.

We gave up on the car show, the persistent drizzle ruined the day, a shame given all the voluntary work that goes into organising such an event. Off to lunch at The Monmouth Ash now.

Thank you gentlemen. She is a beauty. I'll get it posted to the brotherhood soon.
