Fortunately I hadn't packed away all the winter clothes yet. Had to pull on a very vintage Pendleton and a wool jacket.

My kind of weather, actually.
Have a good one,
Michael

Great looking Champ, nice color. Cool looking jacket.

Agnoulita in caramel before the heat drives me out of felt.

This is my first day wearing this economy custom. I’m really liking it so far.

Caramel is a nice neutral color. The brim and crown are really great.

Stingy morning, straw afternoon. Wearing my Penn Craft (English License) long hair from about 1963. Love the finish. One of my few feather adorned hats. The long hair seems to hold the feather so nicely. View attachment 119646 [ATTACHd=full]119647[/ATTACH] View attachment 119648 View attachment 119649

Hipsters have the stingy brims a bad name but I love me a classic slim brim. I also like the finish, is it long hair or more of a velour?

In the afternoon I did try this vintage boater that arrived in the morning, after the replaciing of the ribbon and sweatband.

Not the better sweat work but I did want it to look too new LOL

It has a long hair finish, not as furry as my Borsalino Angora, but very noticeable and soft.

Very nice boater. Any ideas on age? Love the brim binding on the Ramenzoni (and that name!).

Just as classy as he was in the day my friend! Have we seen detail shots of this lid? My memory is so old...

Probably 1930's

Thank you! I posted about it in the Dobbs Diner back when I rediscovered the hat: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/the-dobbs-diner.18579/page-89#post-2356602

Oooh. I can see it better now. It looks soft and petable. I like those special finishes more and more.

Borsalino "Cocisca" probably 1960s and a recent arrival.

Not that boring Harv, some would kill for such a hat.

That deep sage green is beautiful. The lightweight felt is perfect for this to me of year too.

I dig the shape and contrasting brim binding on the Ramenzoni. I’ve been looking for a boater for a long time; you wear yours very well.

Wow! My favorite color and a very interesting ribbon. Very cool hat!

Couple newbies to share!

Had to wear something British while watching HBO's hilarious coverage of the royal wedding. Went with this new-to-me skimmer - British make by way of Toronto Canada. It came to me sans sweat band with a stained ribbon so I installed a Bond-band and some fresh grosgrain.

Today, wearing a Mayser, stamped 1958. I swapped out the crown ribbon and re-flanged the brim. It's a nice little hat but I'd classify it as a bit of a beater. Dried out sweat band, torn liner film, crown could use a reblocking, and the kindly deutscherman who used to own it was definitely a smoker. Still, a nice lid. If the sweat eventually cracks apart, I'll give it a full overhaul.

Hey Blue! Nice looking skimmer, but I am really feeling that Mayser. The wide ribbon really complements the tall crown and short brim.
