Stellar hats, both of them, Joe.

With the weather cooling down a bit here, I was hoping to pull out a felt hat, but the weather gods were not having it. Up again to 30c. Still, the Akubra Range (Etsuko’s favourite of my summer hats) hasn’t had much head time this year, so it was good to have a chance to wear it.

Stylish and elegant; that's the way to do it, Gary.

I hiked in the mid day heat a to a beach a few miles out of town on a small remote island in The lesser Cyclades. After a vigorous swim I fell asleep on the beach only to be awoken by the sight two bronzed young Greek goddesses standing over me proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that they had absolutely no tan lines. One goddess pointed out that my hat had been blown by the brisk North wind into The Aegean Sea, and the other one retrieved my straw Cordova Cap from the gentle surf and kindly brought it to me.

After a rinse in fresh water and a quick dry in the blazing sun, my cap is fine, if only wrinkled a bit. I, on the other hand, fear that I may never be the same.

Something about these Knox hats always gets me. Wonderful, Brent.

Good morning. An Adam hat with a unique ribbon treatment was my hat choice this morning.

Best, Eric -
There seems to be no end to the array of magnificent hats you hold in your arsenal, Eric. And that's a good thing for sure. Love them.

Well, that's one you don't seen every day; gorgeous!

Borsalino Peluche. Been a while since this one has had an outing, but the crisp early autumn sun seemed to call for it.

Have a great week folks.

A good thing you have hats around to answer just about any call, Steve! Good hat and outfit.

I was kind of hard on Hornskov today in its thread, but there really is a lot to like:

There certainly is, Brent. I'm with you on the ribbon thing though.

View attachment 362951 Great thing about nice felt. It’s easy to change. Steamed in a higher cattleman’s crease for a lofty crown.
4 7/8 at the front crease.
Much better.
The angle of this pic makes it look even loftier, but it’s not quite this tall.
Mid 50s 7XCB still awaits a matching wind trolley. Doesn’t seem complete without em.
View attachment 362950
Very nice, Randall. Love the hats that take a shape without any steam even better.

Hornskov 'Editor' today. On my way to work. I look if i saw a ghost :D
View attachment 363098
Did you? If so it must have been equally impressed by your hat.;)

St. Veit (Sankt Veit) Ludovikus Hagens Wwe (Lustenau, Voralberg) probably early 1930s and a recent arrival.

Looks great, Steve.

Hello all! Felt season is finally upon us and it’s always good to see everyone sharing and enjoying their hats. Gannon in moss green this morning.

Gorgeous hat, Dave. Love the ribbon.

Tonak Gazela on this sunny day in Denmark.
View attachment 363282 A recent acquisition at the beginning of the summer along with a bunch of other hats from @steur. This was its maiden outing.
Ah, yes, that one. The sun brings out its wonderful colour and felt finish, Steve. One of Tonaks finest hats.

Beautiful hat, Perry.

Hey gents—the cooler weather here in the southland has me rooting around in boxes and pulling out the felts. I almost forgot I had this Borsalino I bought in San Francisco in 1986.
View attachment 363313
Lovely hat. You'd think it would be hard to forget one like that, but it all depends on the rest of the collection of course.;)

Great find, Dave. Bruma is a coliur we haven't seen before; there seems to be no end to the variety of Borsalino colours. Interesting that it's not a "misto" colour given the heather felt.

Fall has landed with a thud here, so let's start trotting out the heavier felts.

OPS-era Game Bird.

Bring out these suede finishes as much as possible. Great hat, Jim.

50s Whippet in steel blue for a trip to the surgeon yesterday.

Stellar hat, Bill. Awesome colour.

Borsolino Misto was my hat choice for a morning dog soirée.

Cheers, Eric -
Doesn't get any better than that. Man, what a hat!

The daily excellence of lids is so inspiring! In the spirit of the changing foliage, my Vintage Silhouettes Oxblood, by Fawcett, by golly!

Beautiful colours on that one, Charlie.
