Thanks for all the comments recently. Tasha is totally fine but her hind legs are starting to weaken from age, so getting herself out of slippery rocky river banks wasn’t going to happen without some help.

Good to see Redi-Kilowatt again Jim. Looks sharp

Forecasted to be over 100 degrees today
A cheap paper straw hat and lots of air conditioning got my vote today.

Mike, Leghorn is straw from the region around Livorno. Apparently Livorno was called Leghorn by english speakers in the past. It does feel like straw rather than a synthetic.

Richard, isn’t leghorn a specific weave? I thought I recalled that leghorn had a distinct repeating pattern.

Nice.

Thanks, Richard. It's a beater but I love it.

Cool morning, warmer afternoon. This calls for felt in the a.m. and straw for the p.m. The Cavanagh Homburg has been sitting in a back room taking fresh air to get out some noxious odors and it's become wearable. It's about time. It's been sitting alone too long. A very nice hat with great felt, a clean center dent without pinches, and a half blind stitch on the brim blinding.

Brent, all the references I can find are to the wheat straw from that region. I have not found anything about a leghorn weave.

That's a good looking homburg Doug.

Easy to see why that's a go-to hat Bob. The Ford tie is really cool, from the 50s or 60s?

Penny’s Panama, cleaned and new sweat added. I’ll post more shortly on Cleaning straw hats thread

Figures I had that wrong too. Thanks.

Thanks Richard. I'm thinking 1950s on the tie. A little older than the hat perhaps.
