My winter-time “hanging around the house garb” can be a bit silly but also a lot of fun. It includes this great silk-lined opera cape that looks very retro under my new-to-me Dobbs courtesy of @BobHufford.

This cape should probably be filed under “items worn but not outside of the house.”

The Dobbs, on the other hand, will probably see a lot of head time out and about.

You just might be the first to sport a cape for this thread.
Only other i can think of that might have had the b***s…err panache to sport one would have been @Michael A.
That man could wear anything and with style. Sure miss that old boy!

A new-to-me Dobbs that came courtesy of @BobHufford.

I posted about this one earlier today but the post didn’t have the right vibe for this thread. Here’s a second go at it.

This guy is one size too small and it’s noticeable. Even though I can make this work, I believe it will be my last purchase in this size.

Happy weekend friends.

Cool Dobbs Homburg, Nathan. Love the contrasting brim binding and ribbon treatment.

Surely a little tweeking can stretch that one.

Great hats, gentlemen. All very classic hats.

Just wow! Those old hats simply, or maybe not simply, had more flare and quality.
Love all that detail in the stamp, Steve!
Randy and I were just reveling in logos of old.
