For Bowen: Le horsey is in le Lovely Liners thread. [emoji41]


Sent directly from my mind to yours.
That hat wins extra special bonus points for its name alone!

Well, that was an enjoyable parade. That Titan turned out sweet. Loved that felt (I petted it frequently while in my hat room). That supernatural is really a statement straw.
Thanks, Mike. That felt is more than incredible and the good news is I actually found two more of those on the bay! Another chamois one in grey and a regular one. And even cheaper than this one! The panama is a succes too; wore it again today. The one who decided it needed a month's supply of shellac deserves a kick in the butt retroactively though.

Seems to be heating up out here more quickly this morning. So I will probably be in a cap if I get out bicycling and a straw when I get home.

Have a fun Saturday,

Great look today Michael. I guess I better dust off my light colored pants since we have passed May Day. Love that Dobbs color.

Thanks, Michael. The panama needs to earn its place. It has a lot going for it but it's very stiff; not something I'd expect from a panama.
You could try giving the panama a quick bath in ethyl alcohol. If it is stiffened with actual shellac that should dissolve some of it out.

Lovely shape to that hat, Michael. Your own version of Mike's bonelord.
Thanks Stefan. Sandstone lord doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

Thanks Mike. The season of summer clothes has arrived. Here at least.

I seemed to recall my Hats Guatemaya palm straw hat was a reasonably good bicycling companion.

The memory proved correct and we had a good bike ride together. Kept my eyes well shaded while remaining firmly attached to my head.

Have a great afternoon,
Michael

Hey all!
This old Mossant today. It has a heavy overwelt edge that I believe (but, of course, could be wrong) was meant to be worn brim up, but the snapped down look it growing on me.

And down...

I just hope the color name of "Orage" (Thunderstorm, Tempest, Squall) isn't somehow prophetic...might have to switch from Field Jacket to Trench.
Have a great day!

It works either way, but I have to agree that the brim down is the better look. Channel your inner Bob Roberts for the brim up look!

Haven't had the time to comment on all the great hats of the last few days, but there were more than enough of super hats out. My hats of the last few days:

borsalino ghiaccio

Knox Westlite

Barbisio Titan chamois

And even here the weather is looking like it would suit the straw hats: ecuadorian supernatural

I especially like the Supernatural. Beautiful.

Love that Mossant. Down is my vote.

Opening night for Annie was a big success last night, sold out house! Spent the day in recovery. Now I have to go repair some set items (hopefully not after every performance!) and get the theater ready for tonight. Another black hat with my stage ninja clothes, Churchill Lord's Hat, unsure of the dating. The logo has a "R", if the rule of 1972 for Dobbs per the professor holds for Canadian hats, this one might be early 1980s. Great felt, and smooth finish.

Wow! Beautiful, Red. You seem to have a different hat on every day. I only own nine nice ones.
Here's the one I wore today, Stetson El Presidente.

Out garage sailing today found this nice box but didn’t buy because of the felt markups

Sadly only a smithbilt that was way to small for me.
Ended up doing gardening work so I broke out the pith helmet

People hardly ever have garage sales in Mexico. It's one of the things I miss from the US.
