I was feeling in the mood to do something different about my gym routine, so I decided on wearing my Dobbs Twenty Five Challenger to the gym. This is a very soft furry creature. This is a late addition to my humble collection of stringy brims.

Needless to say, people at the gym were looking like, WTF Mr. Fernández [emoji1][emoji1][emoji1][emoji1] Got many compliments. They were actually more surprised I wasn't clean shaven[emoji1]

PS: I did not worked out with it on[emoji1]

^^^^^ Still my hero.
Ha ha, thanks Bob. I had to change my hat and add a coat to get out on the bike for what seems like the first time in weeks.

Cool liner in that one Michael.

Best,

Thanks Blare. It is a bit different from the run of the mill liner. And the brim is a little different from the run of the mill fedora, too, at 3 1/8".

Found a new hat while I was on my outing.

Have a good evening,

Nice weight hat holds up to the trade winds. The felt is not too hard, with a smooth hand.

Really dig that trim, Jonesy. Hard to imagine anything more appropriate.

I have a dark-skinned Mexican golfing friend whose name is Hermilo Zwart. He says his great-grandfather was a Dutchman who upon arrival in Chiapas proceeded to marry into wealthy families several times. The power of blue eyes and blond hair among the descendants of the Mayas.

You could still try it, Stefan. You'd be rich.[emoji1]

Maybe. I've heard of this dentist who has two daughters and this awesome hat collection:D

A very nice Strat you have there. I think that liner is my absolute favorite!


Interesting color on this old Mallory body Brent. That felt looks to be a heavy dress weight, luxurious for sure!


What a great hat for a "get well" day from the USPS. Can't wait to see it on your newly refurbished head!


Two great hats per usual Stefan. I wish I could pet that nutria, that felt must be really something special. Interesting liner on the Mayser, it almost has the look of a Hückel.


Your parade of all things fluffy has been a joy to behold of late. The color on this one is really nice.


Great images Dave. The sweat logo is really nice.


I like the color of this black cherry Dave. Is it from the "current" dye lots? They have a tendency to be darker than the Black Cherry of a few years ago. Love the ribbon and contrasts.


Very nice Perry. Love the crowns you are able to pull off. Festive shirt and sweater as well.
Thanks, Mike. It's a high quality hat for sure; Berteil didn't do cheap.

A "river of rain" is hitting Oregon this morning. Straight from Hawaii. The flooding and wind damage will miss us here in the Willamette Valley. I still need an aerodynamic choice of hat for some last minute shopping for the wife. I think I will also wear this Biltmore Imperial in congnac for tonight's caroling tours of the Monteith Historical District. This is a modern derby, but still very high quality construction. Pictures are from last month, but the outfit is the same.

Not a false note in the entire outfit, Mike.
