42 degrees and feels like fall.. Lets pick an Autumn hat for the morning. To make it fun lets do before and after pictures

My favorite little lightweight Orange Stetson with green ribbon and edge binding. Its come a long way since it arrived all crunched up in the ebay box with paint spots and oil stains

OR.... a heavier Stetson 4x Cowboy Conversion. There wasnt anything wrong with this hat... It was just not my style originally

The weekend is in full swing here and I've been out and about this morning delivering a birthday card to one of my grand daughters. She didn't know what to think about my choice of hats this morning and said it was one of the BIGGEST hats she had ever seen ! Lol.
Resistol Stagecoach line from the late 70's complete with another pencil curl brim. The brim of the hat was still wet from the process when the pictures were taken but has since dried out with no discoloration. Normally those macrame headbands that were popular back in the day just plain ol mess a hat up in my opinion but this one isn't too bad to my eye.

A hat for a professional appointment

Dunn & Co "proudly" made in the UK, that's what the sweatband says, more or less, but I have some doubts about the felt that seems to have been supplied by some European manufacturer

But you never know what happened in the making of hats in ancient times

The hat is very well finished with high quality components and fits like a glove, so it is among those that remain in Verona, despite the very specific desire to lighten my collection

Happy Saturday to all of you and congratulations on your hats that I recovered after two days of absence
Looks great on you Daniele
