Great sweater. Time for sweater weather...
Thanks Perry. I was digging around for a heavier sweater, but then I ran across this sweater vest and decided to go with it. I like that sweater you have on today a lot. Great style and great look with the VS.

A nice cool brisk morning after the rain went through, so time to break out the Irish Sweaters. Matching it with a 50's Mallory Dallas.

Great color on the Dallas and nice match with the sweater. I think I have an Aran Crafts number around here somewhere.

Very cool ! What kind of material to they make those out of ?
This one would appear to be made from wool, though not sheepskin. Some sort of faux construction. I have another one that is real fur

Thanks Michael. Looks like our sweaters will be getting a lot of use the next week or so.

Blustery 34 degrees here today. It felt like a Stetson day. Wearing my $75 Stetson Royal Deluxe Walnut colored Roadster. I like this hat and love the narrow ribbon band on the brim. I'm still not sure about the leather hatband. [emoji848]

My neighbor sees me wearing hats on a regular basis. He recently stopped me and said that he had a Stetson hat, but never wears it. He asked me if I was interested in it. & I replied it depends on what style it is. [emoji3]

He goes into his house and comes out with Stetson box, opens it and there's a barely worn Roadster hat in my size. [emoji50]

After a brief discussion back and forth, we agreed on a $75 price for the hat. [emoji106]

So, my hat for this evening is the first acquisition from eBay in a looooong time! Got it today. I haven’t bought a hat in over nine years. Well, this one fedora makes up for my lid lapse! Far as I’m concerned, It’s the super model of toppers!
I’ll be posting it on the new eBay hats thread as well and will be asking folks for their expert assessment of the year this one was born, so please go there to help me out.
I’m guessing, mid fifties? So happy to have a ribbon with gills!
I had to steam it in a hat stretcher to get the long oval shape it needed to fit my oblong cranium, but otherwise it was perfect! Have a wonderful evening!

What'd'ya expect, living so far north, Steve?
I find the lack of sunlight up there even more depressing than the cold, and that's saying.

I love light and heat too, Max. However, living in Denmark has lots of other advantages. That's why we're among the happiest people in the world [emoji4]
