I went to the site you posted and was going to order the antique oil and motorcycle leather conditioner, but they wanted too much to ship it, so I’ll just get some or something else like it when next I go to a big town.
Appreciate the help though.
And no, I didn’t know you was kidding.
I thought you and Max must really like tequila while working on hats. [emoji6]
Sounded fun, till I envisioned myself passed out on top of a crumpled up Mallory Twenty! [emoji16]

This one's unusual. A black, curled brim Open Road. I had my doubts of its authenticity, but the numbers match.
It is a 7 1/8, but after a couple of months on a custom band block and plenty of Pecard, it fits fine.

The curl seems to be executed properly and the overall style quite interesting. More dressy than the typical OR and less formal compared to a Homburg. Nice one Max

So, Doug, how did the surgery go? Pituitary gland back to normal? You feeling alright?
Cuéntanos.

As good as can be expected. CAT scan shows tumor gone. Waiting on MRI report. First day was pretty rough as pain killers didn't work very well. Better now. Hope to go home today.

Walking around ok, but i get tired fast. Hormone levels normalized. Front lobe headaches and nasal pain, along with throat pain still present. Oxycontin and Tylenol help. They've been giving me steroids too that help with post surgery swelling.

Yesterday, I posted, in the: "How Do Folks React To Your Hat Wearing," a photo depicting me wearing a hat with neck tie, shirt and leather jacket. See here: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/how-do-folks-react-to-your-hat-wearing.73283/page-141
The OldFashioned replied: Leather jacket with tie and hat works. So does a beard too: And what a fabulous pictorial response it was too.

So today, emboldened by others, I have donned the leather once more and teamed it up with one of my hand made shirts by Tina and a hand made straw by Esther.

That is very cool. I've been thinking of doing a pencil curl on my latest Open Road, but it seems pretty difficult without the proper tools.....

And Pecard is a leather conditioner recommended to me by Mike and Brent. Very good stuff. It has different types. I use the Antique Leather Pecard. It is so good at softening leather and making it look new, I am tempted to use it on my face.

LOL, I may have to try it on my face as well ! It is good stuff, that's what I use on sweats as well. Been using it for years on various leather items.
