Nice cap and pics, Joe.
Good to see you around, Jeff. Excellent selection.
You've got the Stetsons in black covered, Perry. More love for the black hat!
Stellar hats as always, Eric. It's the Flagship this time to take the prize.Good morning. I checked after my walk and the bird baths are frozen. It is a cool morning. A Stetson Stratoliner DeLuxe was my morning walkabout hat.
Warmer clothes, coffee and a Gannon wanderer were de-rigor.
the granite Winchester felt hue is hard to capture in the morning.
Working on trimming some rose bushes in a Stetson Flagship. The petersham ribbon looks good on this lighter fawn hued felt. I knwo from previous posts that this ribbon style provokes strong dis-likes and likes. For this hat it works.
Cheers, Eric -
Black hat and black jacket. Very nice, Steve.
Perfection top to bottom and left to right, Robert.
Barbisio variation on display there, Daniele and at its finest. Wonderful looking hat.I got a little lost with the very welcome visit from my friend Steve
I had some new hats to show you and the weather helps me with completely warm days, too much for the season.

Barbisio "Sportex" Ratiné size 6 1/2 or 60 centimeters, 7 1/2 in the USA.

The felt is the interesting part of the hat: its dark blue color is fantastic as is the drafting of the dye, the finish is "Ratiné" ("withered" in English) and that is the surface is slightly wrinkled and in relief. The ribbon is in complete harmony with the color of the felt and it has very low total weight.

The proportions of the hat are generous, suitable for an autumn that, after having announced itself, has completely disappeared

Congratulations on your hats that I have very little commented on.
Works very well on that hat, David.
Perfect for autumn, Brent.
A thing of beauty and a lovely petting hat. Outstanding as usual, Alan.
Very cool, Joe, hat and pics!
Good to see that one around again, Bill. Colour me jealous!
Jacket, waistcoat, shirt and hat. Perfect combination, Steve.
Breathtaking!Sir the "ribbon" is 2.25" high with 4 pleats. The pleats have volume. They are not flat. This style pug is very cool in person.
While I like the ribbon style, you like it and a few others on the forum, I doubt that the average or novice hat wearer would be able to comfortably wear a style like this. I imagine we might here t is to bold. Between us, it is cool that it is different than the same old ribbon treatment.
I have seen Northwest Hat Co provide a couple customs to forum mebers with this pleated style pug band. We would have to ask the other custom hatters if they would like to put some effort to this style ribbon treatment.
FYI; Below are pics of the Stetson Beachcomer ribbon treatment. This is my fav of this style.
Cheers, Eric -
Lovely hat and very generous proportions for a Panizza.
Letting all the pets out to play, eh? I'm all for it!
Gorgeous hat, Steve. Glad to see you around. Bring out all the velours!J. Hückel´s Söhne "Seal Velour" made for Huthase Dresden, Chemnitz, Leipzig. This is a fantastic chocolate brown close cropped Velour. Possibly 1930s late 1920s.
The Seal Velour, Sweatband and Liner are color coordinated.
I have a J. Hückel ´s Söhne Promo Pocket Mirror from Huthase with a similar style hat (Color, Form).
"Huthase" (Hare Hat) was a retail operation with stores in Dresden, Chemnitz and Leipzig. Here are actually trademark designs sent to J. Hückel ´s Söhne in 1923 (courtesy of Muzeum Novojičínska). It's one of the most clever designs I have encountered.
Can't have anough homburgs! Keep them coming, Brent.
Beautiful hats, Gary.After being bedridden for the whole of yesterday with the side effects of the Covid jab, I needed a hat that would make me happy. My Stetson Custom V fit the bill perfectly. View attachment 459275 View attachment 459276
Etsuko wore her Panizza.

It's as much a great colour as it is a great hat, Stefan.
You are not alone having a green hat in your collection.
I'm still uh-ming and ah-ing, about a burgundy hat.
Now if it was darker, something like a black cherry......
Thanks, Robert. Burgundy coloured hats require quite a bit of uh-ming and ah-ing I think. Picked up a wine coloured one recently (not my size).

Thanks for the link, Stefan. In Borsalino Brotherhood you wrote: "And here we go again; another hat sold as a size 62, but which was measured around the outside. It is actually a size 58. Modern(ish) Borsalino in a wine red colour called Porto. Raw edge brim at 6cm and the crown at 10,5cm at the center dent. It is a men's hat but to my eye this is not a men's hat colour."
In both hats and shoes American sizes are a half size bigger than Imperial, the latter being the British system of measure before we went metric. That half size can be significant when seeking a comfortable fit. To avoid any ambiguity I have always quoted the sizing used, in whichever country I am buying from, then add my metric size.
Your experience has given me cause for concern. How can a hat be a 62 when it's actually a 58? Has someone got a short tape measure?
Your last comment: "It's not a man's colour." Now that resonated, back to the uhm-ing and ah-ing I think.

Full sun Sunday and out of the ordinary heat.
Autumn seems to have forgotten that it is the season of rain and fog.
I had prepared this hat for some time, but the gray day, to be in tone on tone, is hard to arrive and so here it is
Panizza Marca Oro size is 60 cm. so a 7 1/2 and the color of the felt is "Lapis" while the ribbon is color is still "Lapis"
A perfect tone on tone
The ORO Panizza line was a top of the range in the fifties of which the hat has the shapes and proportions.
Never used, it is a leftover from stock which, however, has fueled the travels of moths
I want to expressly thank all those who have appreciated my hats of the last few days.
Have a nice Sunday
