It's finally cold enough to be called winter here, so I trundled off to work today with my long black topcoat and the silverbelly Royal De Luxe Stetson:

(Oh, and there were trousers, shoes, and a sweater too.)

Hey all!
Happy Monday to everybody! And thanks for all of the appreciation for my home-made offering yesterday.

It's my first one I made with good felt, and the last with a crappy reconstituted leather sweat. I think my next project will be putting in a better sweatband (and doing a better job of it! ) so I'll wear it more often.
Have a great day!

Very "American" proportions, Daniele. Fantastic felt, and black goes with EVERYTHING!!
Yes Charlie "American proportions"
A little bit too wide brim for the narrow streets of Verona, sometimes I'm unable to walk

Very nice Daniele. Looks like it's capable of keeping the sun out of your eyes. I can't quite make out the detail of the brim finish. Is that a thin binding?
Yes Michael it is a thin binding.
I have not yet decided if I love this Borsalino or not.
You last cold week apparels were astounding, but you know my opinion about your "dandiness"

Daniele, such a great piece! As Charlie says, American proportions - probably why it really knocked me out (not that your other hats don't regularly throw me for a loop). And such a joyful smile! Have a happy Monday, my friend.
You too Jim FZ fan.
When I see my face under that black Borsalino I have always the doubt if it is right or not.......

Smashing hat.
Thanks Matt.
Your last hats are more than beutifull
Danielle – Bellisimo. Impressive indeed. Buon Natale.
Grazie e Buon Natale anche a te e famiglia!

Good looking.
Many thanks
I envy your last Fawcett hats

A very nice looking wide brim Borsalino. I like the black with that coat. You can't go wrong with a classic.
The coat it is too sporty for a so serious hat:rolleyes:

Grazie Daniele!
Prego Esther
The pictures you showed from you photo hats session are astounding

Daniele that Borsalino is a beauty!
Thanks Tommy!
I see it more on your head then mine, it could be the right companion for your beautiful hats ;)

Looks great, moe. I just (finally) found a 52 block in 7 1/4. It should be here soon and I have a couple of old bodies to work on. I'm sorta stoked.

Fruno, didn't realize the Dalt-O-Liner was a centerdent. I dig it
picture4-jpg.63027


For some reason I favor the centerdent for Stratoliners and more a diamond crease or C-crown for Open Roads. Couldn't explain why, just like them that way

Thanks, Tommy. This one got a center dent right after I reblocked it. Another case of listening to the hat.

I've just come to realize that this thread is a combination of world weather reports and hat awesomeness :)
Everyone looked great today.

We would have great fun with comparing blocks!
We would! Let's! :)
Are you like me, with a lot of them not yet "tested" waiting to be reborn?

Got a sneak peek. I should get the others tomorrow.

I agree with everyone else, AMAZING!!!!

Looks like a great hat to me. Height looks good as well. As a guide, the distance from your eyes to chin is a good height for the crown of your hat.
Wear it in good health
Johnny
Hi Johnny, I had never heard that eyes to chin rule in my life, it's really intriguing! Where did you hear it?

LOVELY LID, Christina! But will the brim fill up with the rain? Very cute look, I like it a lot!!
Yup! The rain caught me unawares, I switched hats when I got home!

Nice hat Kuki. And brooch and scarf and jacket. Looking good in other words.

Michael
Thank you Michael, loved your cap today with the earflaps, elegant and warm!!

Kuki – It’s funny. My father’s nickname is Cu’qui, I believe it would be pronounced the same. Accent on the first syllable? Anyway, great lines on the hat!
Hi @Miamibruno looking elegant as always! My nickname, which could be written also as cuqui, is used often for children, it somehow stuck and my close family still call me that. The accent is on the first syllable... where did your dad's nickname come from?

Celia, you learn to prioritize & develop the technique known as Scroll & Roll.
@Hurricane Jack @Celia I could use some tips too! My fear of eventually dropping off comes not so much from wearing a hat everyday (which I do), but from not being able to answer the comments and deciding to disappear out of shame...

That beautiful hat is standing up to the elements quite well! Nice pin as well.
Thank you Red!

Good hat day today, but then every day is a good hat day here :)

From no brim sunday to giant brim monday

View media item 1132
Don't worry, tomorrow I'll probably be back to fedoras...
But I do love your girly hats!!! Does the hat have an inner crown that goes further down than the brim for comfort of wearing? Sort of like the one on this link:
https://es.pinterest.com/pin/234961305534197692/

Great shape, just right for you! I guess that is of the many advantages of being able to make your own hats...
It is one of the advantages!! :)
