Thanks for all the 'Happies'! :)

Wore a different optimo panama today (not THE Montechristi) but I styled the brim last night in a similar fashion.

The color is not accurate at all. The felt is a steel gray blue mixed with silver blond. It has an under-welt and it doesn't seem to have been used at all.The sweat shield looks brand new. I reckon it is from the mid to late Fifties.

Well Gene, Happy Birthday!

DJ, what a great little gift! Children are the best thing to happen to a man (and I like you in a brim better too!)

Today I wore my Adam Executive for a family get-together (to bore all the kids with vacation pictures :D )

Thats a really cool looking Adam Executive Mr. Paladin. Ive been trying to get my hands on one in my size, but it always seems to slip through my fingers. How wide is the edge binding? As wide as a whippet?

Josh, it is about half the width of my Whippet's binding. I'll measure them for you today and give you the exact widths. Thanks for the props on the Adam. It is one of my favorites.

Hey Lefty,

Your wife looks very demure in her straw hat. Where is that Rebel flag? Is that not heresy in Ohio (although I understand there was a faction here during the Recent Unpleasantness)?

Thanks.

The flag is somewhere on Rt. 422 between Chardon and Ravenna. I'm guessing it's more about being a nut than any real political statement.
