Made an escape rope out of toilet paper (yes, we have enough and are not hoarding) and scaled the parapet walls. Trip out for supplies, both folks and us. Kind of an autumnal look, in this sunshine, but I'm trying not to repeat ensembles. Knox Stratoliner clone fedora from the mid-1950s along with a 1950s tie. Brown blazer and my Christmas gift vest/pocket watch. First outing for my new Italian racing oxfords made by Zetin. $300 shoes for $13 bucks from "the Bay."

French week over all ready? I enjoyed seeing the hats grouped. Thanks.



Glorious cap. Thanks for sharing a dose of the Hawaiian "pretty nice" weather and scenery.

Yesterday afternoon's escapades were done in a Stetson Bantam. Home and the sprinkles from passing showers were warning me to get inside under cover.

This morning dog soirree in a VS fedora. This thin ribboned sage beaver felt was inspired by the Stetson Stratoliner.

Be safe, be strong and see you on the streets soon,Eric -
I am pretty lucky to be able to go out for a walk every day, go for a swim, and try to stay healthy in such a beautiful place during this pandemic.

J. Hückel´s Söhne were famous for Velour Soft Felt Hats but their Stiff Felt Hats were also very popular. This week I will feature J. Hückel´s Söhne Stiff Felt Hats.

This is my final entry of the week but I actually have a few more J. Hückel´s Söhne Stiff Felt Hats. :)

J. Hückel´s Söhne "Plume", 125 grams possibly early 1930s. The liner has A. Breiter München which is a famous München Hat retailer that is still in business today. A light weight Stiff Felt and that is somewhat flexible so wears almost like a Soft Felt. Great form and interesting bow design. Also in excellent condition.

30 Days to 30 Hats - Day 26
Royal Stetson Musketeer

FF41605A-6A8D-4E78-9C00-13CAE912BDB2.jpeg


Royal Stetson Musketeer
Extra light pale blue felt
4 3/4 Crown as bashed (almost 5 1/2 open)
Stunning 1 5/8 Duo-Tone Maroon and Silver Ribbon
2 1/2 brim with silver grosgrain bringing and triple stitching
2 inch brown sweatband

What a better way to brighten up a gloomy stormy rainy day than with a special hat like the Royal Stetson Musketeer. Everything about this hat screams wow! From its beautiful light pale blue felt that is extra thin soft and moldable to its super cool and very unique duo-tone ribbon design. This special hat came my way off a much appreciated tip by fellow lounger @DaveProc.

50s Dobbs. Wide bound on top, less on bottom. Tag says it sold for a mere $10. A cheapie. :) View attachment 230809


Another beauty, Steve. The crown looks a little taller on that one but it may be the camera angle.
