Great looking overall shape, Don. Love that ribbon and bow treatment.

Adam Hats never fail.

Lovely helmet, Reg!
Super ride!! I hope you get to ride a lot.

Thanks, Charlie! I haven’t been able to get out all that much this year, but I’m working on it. I am so out of shape it’s embarrassing.

Newly acquired Retro Sport French style touring casquette.

I doff my cap to my good FL pal Panos @PanosChris for peaking my interest in this one.

LOVE that one, Don, especially the ribbon and that bow treatment!

 

[VoodooSan]

Love that powder blue colour felt, Mark. The pug ribbon treatment is the icing on the cake.

Thanks, Steve. Amazingly, this is the first pug I've ever owned. I think I must have traveled in very culturally-deprived hat-lands in my younger days.

We're never deprived, Mark, just enriched the older we become

Ottmar Reich "Insuperable" "Asa" possibly earlier 1900s and a recent arrival.

Oh my goodness! Now that is show stopper and head turner for sure! Wow!

Oh, I like that! Very positive life-outlook!

Looking smooth, Steve. Perfect coat and scarf for that classic Borsalino.

Today's errands will be completed wearing the fourth hat from my score on Monday. It's a grey, 1940s-vintage Champ, with a 2.75” bound-edge brim, a 4.75” crown, and a 1.75” pug ribbon. I was unfamiliar with the word coney, until researching the headband embossing. I like this one a LOT!

No books, but way too many berets thanks to Daan and his extensive collection. The private label Aotearoa are made by the Boneteria Auloronesa - these are very high quality French made berets. I have some Spanish and Japanese made boinas from Flamingo which I like also though they wear and feel different from the Basque variety. They are great hats for everyday wear and especially for travel.

My wife's neighbor was a Japanese landscape designer who emigrated from Japan in the early 20th century. I don't remember seeing him outside without a beret on his head. My grandfather and his relatives of that generation were beret wearers too.

Added a bit of color today... Blue Stetson Sovereign. Got a couple wavy spots in the brim to smooth out, and think Im going to have to change out the ribbon for some grosgrain. This year Ive strayed away from black , grey, and silver hats a bit. Found some interesting browns, blues, and some nice contrasting ribbons and edge bindings
