A nice homburg certainly brightens up my day. Gorgeous homburg, Steve.
Why not take the classic look to perfection?! This hat does just that.
Magnificent hat, Bob.

A two-TAR day yesterday. Ice blue Strat was the perfect hat to keep the sun off and provide some warmth for the first day of high school baseball at the southern end of Brooklyn.

Very nice, David. A bit of sun; we can use that over here!
More homburgs: always good news (even if they are green).

The Borsalino Gorasgu Visone tops the list for me, although they're ALL winners.

Cheers on St.Patrick's Day. My morning walkabout was taken under a Stetson Vogue.
Home and enjoying morning cold brew under the brim of a Stetson Avenue.
I headed out for a couple errands wearing a VS moss green beaver fedora. This hat took inspiration from the venerable Stetson Whippet. I do really enjoy the "Art" ribbon touch.

Failsworth Deep Brown Med/Long Hair
Medium/Long Hair Finish Felt
Approx 5inch crown as shaped (about 6 Open)
2 7/8 Raw Edge Brim
Approx 1 7/8 Brown Grosgrain Ribbon
I felt like this was one I needed to take a shot on. Listed as a “100% Wool Felt Trilby” I didn’t see any reason to believe any of those things were true. In hand it appears to be a medium/long hair fur felt with a very soft finish and it’s nearly 3 inch brim would outsize most folks definition of “Trilby” (except maybe Joao). Failsworth, a UK hat maker in Manchester had the UK Stetson manufacturing license starting in 1949... which seem to account for most of the Failsworth manufactured hats that turn up here. Occasionally though an actual Failsworth branded hat does pop up And I am happy to add this one to the collection. I’m not sure the age of this hat.. Stefan indicated it is a more modern offering based on liner logo.. though the term “more modern” around here often can mean anything from the 1970s/80s to current. Would love to narrow down a bit. In the end though age is not of too much significance as if this hat was made even last week and at this quality level… it would be even more impressive.
