Tired of turkey sandwiches. Left work early and I’m going to a restaurant!
Got me an attitude, so I’m wearing the “flatly” at a cocked angle to match. Someone got a super great Wormser OR clone cheap last night. Glad for him. I tried my best but they tried better. The cookies do crumble [emoji6][emoji849]

Today’s hat Dobbs Royal Coachman with guild edge. It’s medium to medium dark grey leaning more to bluish tones in my estimation. The brim is right about 2in with a nice guild edge and the ribbon is 2in. It’s a 6 7/8 that’s fits nice and snug on my usual 6 7/8 to 7 head. This has been one of my favorite go to hats since I got it earlier this year. It’s very comfy and has a bit of its own character.

Great blue overtones on your Dobbs, Joe. Love that wide ribbon, too. Wind cord is the icing on the cake.

Well, the 100 is the best, with the 50 a close second (still awesome) and the quality is accurately represented by the price in the others I think. Admittedly, my judgement might be influenced because I knew beforehand the prices of each, but the 50 and the 100s (I have two) are both truly breathtaking, no matter how you see it. Luxurious, like a Rolls-Royce.

Seems like it will be some relatively nice weather here today.
Perfect combo Michael. I like the pullover under the jacket and the coordination between colors
Don't worry about bands on stage and your personal memories...this summer I found a man I haven't seen for twenty years, that told a story about a concert we went together, completely disappear in my mind, I believe I was in Marocco, but at the end it was true I was at the concert, he had a picture of both with the announcement of the concert on the back o_O

Was that blocked on one of the new Randal Alan 3-D printed hat blocks? Or did you iron it with this?

If word gets out they're made like that, everybody will want one:). Maybe @humanshoes will put it in his line-up of customs.

Stefan that is fabulus !! Congrats! I've seen a couple of vintage felt bodies with a pattern of some sort but never something similar. I guess a press machine was used after the felting process?

Thanks, Panos. Don't know how these were made, but a press machine is highly likely.

One of the strangest and rarest hats seen in production here in Italy where the search for taste has always been the master of the minds and hands of the hatters.
Barbisio was the most "experimental" of the Italian producers and this felt, made as a fabric for interiors, is the example.
The new version of the "Granito" is far better of the oldest one
Bravo Stefan!
Thank you, Daniele. Both for the comments and for getting this one for me. I was a bit worries this was going to be a sort of party hat, but that's not the case at all. Perfectly wearable. Barbisio shows us yet another trick!

I was going to say, Way Cool toppers Steve. Great hats! Then Stefan comes along and.....Way Cool, Stefan, what a hat!
It's the future of hats!

In all seriousness, very striking. This example is quite the piece!


Wow Stefan the treatment on that Barbisio is certainly eye catching! If you've just described it to me, I would not have thought that it would work as well as it does in real life!
Gentlemen, thanks. It is very different and I'll admit I didn't expect it to be as wearable as it is.
