I switched out to a Dobbs Forty while it is still cool enough for this heavy felt. I was lucky to score two of these from the same owner.
Looks like you're getting some nice weather there.
What a fantastic shade of blue, Joe!!!

That is a magnificent homburg, Joe. Love it.
Looks good (again)!
Beautiful hat, Don. It needs that wide ribbon; gives it presence.I switched out to a Dobbs Forty while it is still cool enough for this heavy felt. I was lucky to score two of these from the same owner.

Those first two Barbisios for me. Maybe because I was wearing a Steur Barbisio today, too.Some fine early spring weather this week. We'll enjoy it while it lasts. Sunday is here and so are the hats of the week. All of them with some sunshine to look their best.

Thanks Stefan! Your hats are awesome too!!That is a magnificent homburg, Joe. Love it.

Thank you, Robert. Tina is right as usual. We need more love for the black hats. I'm amazed that you still have banks to rob over there. Almost all of them seem to have disappeared here. We could use the MG as a getaway car. We might not get away with it, but it would be the most stylish bankrobbery in decades I'm sure!View attachment 687557

Gamble & Gunn have made me a number of hats, this one, being black, I had reservations about. Tina reassured me that, with the black trousers that she made for me, the black hat would sit well.
When I was a small boy our television was only black and white. We thrilled at the action movies imported from America. To this day I still can't help thinking that the good guys wore white hats and the baddies wore black.
Stefan, with both of us in black hats, we could look like the archetypical movie baddies of the 1950's. What do you say that we go rob a bank or two?
