My man Bowen! Tell us about those boots please and more photos?
Hey hey Yahoody, you’re back! Missed hearing from you. Glad you are all healed up i hope.
Ha, the boots, ok. If you want to see some really nice ones look at Fabiovenhorst’s post yesterday, pg.8442. Mine are just Staffords. I’ll post em in the Western thread with a hat you might like here soon.
Super duper hats all.
Be well. Bowen

Cavanagh lord's hat with peacock feather band that Moe MADE me buy on Monday. The heathered felt really is surprisingly nice for a later model. And the band... well
... it speaks for itself.
Another stunning example of a disco era Cavanagh. I do love the furry finish and that peacock band must have been an upgrade. It is interesting that the form of this one is very, very similar to the Huggy Bear, only furry. Nice, you own this look Matt.

Fantastic hat, Greg.

Thank you, Matt.

So nice...
Congrats Greg!

Thanks, Bob. I'm enjoying this one.

That crease looks nice on that fine Churchill. Those boots are killer!

Thank you, Dd. Think I'll leave the crease where it is for now. The kid calls em my purple boots.

Thats gorgeous Greg!
Get your feet off the bumper! Were you raised in a barn? [emoji14]

Appreciate it, Harv. I'll get my feet off the bumper. I wasn't raised in a barn but have spent considerable time in them.

Very nice!

Thanks, Rog. Hope you, the missus and the baby are well.

Right up there Bama, right up there!
And the boots, sweet!
Be well. Bowen

Thank you, Bowen. Every piece you've been posting is killer.

Thanks Mike. Both it and Huggy Bear are very neat hats with their own... er... "style".

It's interesting to me that Cavanagh seems to have been Hatco's branding choice for this type of hat. At least, I have not yet seen any examples of the form under the Knox or Dobbs names, for example. I wonder if that is correct, and if so, if there was market research to support that decision.
Thanks Matt. I think I see a corner ahead on the flu, just not sure how soon I will get there. Moving kind of slowly these days.

That is sweet. Love that long hair felt and that brim shape is super.

Michael
Thanks Michael.

I hope that the corner is right in front of you.
Great hat. Def one of a kind.
I know a guy with a jacket.....
Just sayin..
Be well. Bowen
Thanks Bowen.

I'm a little bit boring, I present another "French in gray"
263ew53.jpg

It is a Flechet Pilote with a form here, on the lounge, called "Lord"

The shade of gray is one of the thousand that are present on the ancient European hats market, especially the French ones

The felt is very soft with a finishing with a very soft very short hair

The brim is overwelted. The lining is bicolor in black and white with "Flechet" brand in red

Very comfortable to wear is an atypical hat in my collection, but I have other French in the same shape

I believe it goes back to the fifties

Many thanks for your likes and at the same time I will give you all my warmest congratulations for your magnificent hats.

I also wonder if there was advertising showing these hats? I have not looked. Probably a full page in Playboy, June 1971! I think I had one of these hidden under my bed back in the day...
