I have a nice collection and haven't felt the need for more. So it's been many moons since I've bought a hat. I was shopping with my son who has recently gotten into fedoras. We were in the Goorin Bros store and a grey straw caught my eye. I tried it on was very pleased with the look. That was a week ago. I went back yesterday and bought it. It's called The Gilder. I love the shape and the slate grey color. Enjoy! P.S. The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated.
Congrats! Welcome back on your new hat day. Don't be a stranger. Post often as I appreciate your sharing your oldster hats. Wear the Gilder with pride. Best, Eric-
Sharp looking hat you got there Boss! I like it ! Great to see you! P.S. good to hear the next generation is also liking fedoras!
Very nice indeed. I'm a fan of coloured straw. This reminds me somewhat of my Akubra Capricorn, though it doesn't have the 'sheen' that the polystraw does. I like the natural look to it (texture wise, that is, as opposed to the colour). I'd definitely consider one of those if they are available in the UK.
