That is a nice one. The blue comes through pretty well.

Hey everybody!
The Homburg weather continues. This Rockel that I got in a trade with Stefan is a deep, deep blue that is hard to capture in a photo.

Looks like you're ready for a round of trap at the local rod 'n' gun club, Michael; very smart looking. Also glad to hear you're feeling better, I know exactly how you were feeling. Have been there, too.
Thanks Doug. That's an old Bob Allen Sportswear knit Jacket/cardigan from when they were still making their stuff in Des Moines.

It's great to see you back, Michael. I've missed your hats and stylish nature.
Taking a break is no bad thing and yours was well deserved. You're certainly back in force with your two weekend posts. Super looking lids and, as usual, great outfits [emoji4]

Thanks Steve. I think it's been four or five years that I've been taking daily clothes photos. I had a bit of built up burnout. Ha ha.

yup! I know that feeling all too well. the older I get the less I can tolerate heat and humidity. looking forward to autumn. glad you are well and just had a case of the "I just don't feel like it!" lol!
Thanks Edward. Yes, I agree. Heat and humidity does get less tolerable with age. Today it is close to perfect here, in my mind. Low 70s, cloudy, nice breeze, low humidity = Heaven.

Thanks all,
Michael

I finally finished the size up and rebuild on this Beaver Brand '10X Quality' Western, (Band block by Rockwater and Rounding Jack by Rick @ Phoenix Hat Company).

No more hand sewing brim bindings. I'll be using a sewing machine for all my future brim bindings

I have to wait for better lighting before I can get good pictures of this hat and bow work...

Very nice.
What did you size up from?
Beaver Brand seems to run large.

Cooler temps prevailed the last couple of days.

A green Knox Vagabound is a grand unlined hat.

A Lee Adventure unlined was the hat choice for a dog walk and dog soiree.

Chores in a VS fedora. This ha is a dove beaver felt with a thin ribbon treatment inspired by the Stratoliners.

A vintage Stetson Playboy was a grand choice for a hardware store errand.

I've worn a few kilts in my time. Was told if it sits below the knee it's a kilt, above the knee it's a skirt......hmmmm, I think I see some knee there. ;)
A skirt should even further divert conversation from your hat, then!

I have another kilt, also a "utilikilt", but heavier and more carefully measured, from a source that also sells tartan kilts at more than one price point.
I believe the length measurement was taken to the center of the knee.
This inexpensive, lightweight one is perhaps a wee bit short.
