Good morning.

After a morning walkabout I puttered about down by the fire pit. A Gannon Wanderer was my brim.

I started the grill to prepare brunch for six guests. I doned a Dobbs fedora. The inky blue fedora is in a minty condition and I wear this hat gently. I took it off when in the wood smoke of the grill. In retro I should wear a different fedora for this kind of chore.

Got to go with the Battersby, love it! By the the way Stefan, The names of days and months should be capitalised, such as January and Sunday, not that your English is not impeccable, it's almost as good as your hats!

Fabulous hat, fabulous colour, you just made my Sunday with that Gannon, Randy.

For church this morning I wore the first ever hat that I had made to measure. I also wore the first ever shirt, other than Aloha shirts, that Tina made, I should qualify that it was her first attempt at a Spearpoint collar.

Wonderful hats as always, Eric. That Dobbs is a stunner.

Thank you Stefan. Have you ever been told that the bad guys wear black hats and the good guys wear white? It goes back to the pre-colour film days when black and white film was the only type of film available. A lady, a very elderly lady, at church reminded me of that today. But she still admired my hat, telling me that every gentleman once wore a hat, and not just on Sundays. Gentleman, eh? Me, a gentleman! Best keep my erudite dictionary of profanities a secret.

Making its debut on this thread, I present the Borsalino Debrosan Bismuto.
I’ve been itching to wear this one since I purchased it from Stefan during the Summer. This is the thinnest felt I own. I love everything about it, the felt, the ribbon, the colour, the shape, the brim stitching, and the fit.
Shopping during the day…

I didn’t want to take it off, so it was the same hat when we went for dinner…

Etsuko wore a Maxim.

Some more of the Borsalino. Stefan informs me that the label was used between ‘54 and ‘60.

@steur, if you come across another like this, you can put me down for it. I don’t really have room for it, but I’ll find a way to make room.

Thank you, gentlemen and friends. My "hat followers" at church gravitate toward light colored felts as their favorites. But, I'm to the point now that more than a couple of Sundays without a wearing a bowler and someone will remind me!

Magnificent Sunday hat! This is the day The Lord hath made. Rejoice and be hatted in it!

Very nice, Randy. Making a homburg should be part of the hatters' exams.

Thanks, gents! Definitely got me a good one. The wife's alright too.

Congratulations on your anniversary!
Two great hats, especially that spiral Cav!!

Congratulations!
Both looking good and looking like you’re having a great time. May there be many many more.

Happy Anniversary. Sounds like you had a blast. That Cavanagh is awesome

Congrats, Jonathan! The Champ is nice and all, but that spiral stitch one sings!
