Borsalino Agave on a late Saturday afternoon.

Been a while since I've seen that one. Such a great style with the underwelt binding and that almost caramel colour.

Thanks Stefan. I don't take this one out often enough nor as often as it deserves.

Every once in a while I like to let the old cats out of the bag. This is my second oldest, sold in Buffalo circa 1860. Alas, too windy to wear it in the parade.

Wow, wow, and then some more wow, Alan

What a stovepipe!

Started out in a 4x6 western until I stepped out the door and almost lost it in the wind. Switched to something more aerodynamic.

Most excellent, sir, top to bottom!

How did I overlook your gracious comment? Perhaps I should enter it in the: "You Know That You Are Getting Old Thread." Your comment is most appreciated, thank you.

How I would love to have another blazer in this fabric. Hard to justify though, having a burgundy blazer already. It is a bit tired looking though. Now if I could sell that one..................

That's what those bowlers are built for! Another nice one, Bob.

A bit less wind on tuesday and this Kohlndorfer homburg was called for.

Mossant Oxford Bleu

Mertés De Luxe

Wegener Cornett (still needs a bit of steam to discipline the brim)

Dublin homburg

Mayser Libelle

Kohlndorfer

Mertés De Luxe

My favourite of last week is definitely the Mertés de Luxe, Stefan.

What a lot of new info we've gotten about the company after your original post yesterday. So great to have such knowledgeable folks on this forum.

Thanks, Steve. Glad I decided to go for that one and cool to see both Martin and Steve go full Sherlock mode and turn up all that info.

Welcome back after a hibernation. I see no challenge with wearing caps and hats. Glad to see you back showcasing your glorious hat collection sir.

Felice primavera!

Thanks a lot.
Caps are, sometimes, more easy than hats, but they (the hats) remain my favourite headgear
Grazie per la felice primavera così spero per te nel Nord
Buona domenica!

What a line up! Just fabulous! There isn't a Homburg in my wardrobe but I tell you Stefan,

But for this Kohlndorfer, I could easily make an exception.

You are all wrapped up against the chill, here in Southern England the sun shines, not quite warm enough for the straw hats just yet, but the Aloha shirts and the Strat-a-like make an appearance. If it gets warmer still, I might wake the old MG up.

Not that I need an excuse to wear my MG shirt.

Thank you, Robert. A fine homburg should be on everybody's hatrack, so there's a challenge. Would go fine with the MG running around as well. Just as fine as your current outfit, I'd think. Not quite spring weather here yet, but there are promising signs.

Yesterday afternoon I enjoyed a walkabout under the brim of a Gannon Playboy (silverbelly felt).

Grilling time under the brim of a Gannon Wanderer (silvermist felt with charcoal trimmings).

This morning I completed some outside chores in the 9'f weather under the brim of a VS Wanderer (dove gray felt).

Cheers, Eric -

The cold wave means once more into the breech with a longhair. This one of the rebuilt Lee variety.

They say Spring is in two days...

Northwest Hats heathered camel for services this morning.
