I'm more confused than ever.

No wonder you're sleeping on an air mattress on the floor.

Thanks RM!

BTW ... I'm Bob and not Jack (although I have been called Jack with another name appended a few times).

No worries. I can understand the confusion. Besides ... I like to post this comparison for clarification.

Well that will be easy enough to remember, Jack wears a brown hat and Bob wears a black one. I've got it now.

That ain't funny!

Did someone say "Fed IV with a Diamond crease"?

I re-creased the Dark Brown, and liked it so much that I almost immediately re-creased the other two.

Will redo mines!!!

Rime of frost this morning, but getting up to 55 supposedly. Dobb Hanover Square fills the bill

Have a good Monday all,

Great hat Mike!

This is the first picture where there is no snow on the ground. Congratulations. Love the Hanover.

Amazing Alan. Question, when it says "Boss Raw Edge" does this mean someone has added the brim binding at some point? It does look like some fine work if so.

Thanks, Matt!

Blue-riginal #7 today:

Wide ribbon goodness. Does this make the gills Great Whites?

Hey all!
This slim-brimmed Cavanagh offers less wind resistance on a gusty afternoon.

Have a great day!

Nice looking Cavanagh John. I agree about the wind beating characteristics of a good slim brim.

New-to-me 1950s Royal Stetson “Kashmir Finish”. Purchase facilitated by Jay (@Knotten). Needs a bath, but I couldn't wait to wear it.

Scoop's is just past Fred's Café on the far right.

I like the lines of this one Bob. I thought the Kashmir finish thing was taken by that other hat maker. I've got a line on Scoops, more soon.

Thanks Mike! I think Champ called it "Kasmir" and I'm not sure which version Dunlap went with. Looking forward to the scoop on Scoop's!

C.W.N. "Liberty" Wool probably German and early 1900s.

Liberty seems so USA, even in the early century. Love the sweat imprint.

What a warm welcome guys, grateful thanks. We had a wonderful day but not without incident. When you you have your hat on it's easy to forget that it's a straw, the wind got hold of it and sent it across the car park, a passer-bye rescued it, thankfully, no damage done. Tina, my wife, wouldn't let me do much dancing, but I had a lot of fun catching up with old friends, all keen to nag me. "Don't forget to keep up with your exercises!"

Bill, Esther works her magic with straw superbly. She made this particular hat to a specification that I had asked for. This shirt, that Tina made for me, has a rich, red colour that I love. It needed a hat to compliment it, my hat fairy did just that.
All in all a great day, I had a pair of gibson shoes replaced and the hip ached a bit but nothing more than was to be expected.
Just for Bill, here's that hat and shirt.

Hey just take care and stay healthy my friend!!!

If I were your doctor I will prescribe tequila 3 times a day and 1 hour of mariachi music in the evening, but I am not.

Have a great week
