Just re-re-reribboned the Borsalino Colombo (from felt-belt to 1/2" bone ribbon to 1/2" brown ribbon to this) so now I'm wearing it to my niece's first softball practice of the season. She likes to be cheered on even in practice, so we all oblige.

Go team go!

It's not only the hat, the girl wearing it is important on the equation !!

The East has snow, but out here in the West it's sunny and 75. Go figure. Wearing a Pilgrim today.

You deserve a little sunshine. Great looking Pilgrim.

It's still hot over here, but I wanted to take blue monkey creation #2 out for a spin! The felt is Czech rabbit by way of ManHatCo in NY; the leather and lining is from lounger @bond .

My personal critique -- I need to block these with higher, straighter crowns -- I find that my current block doesn't provide enough slack to get really creative with the crease sculpting. Still - I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!

Yer getting good! Pretty soon you will be making us all hats.

Classy slim brim Michael. What is the red pin on the jacket? A brand pin?

Reporting in from "The belly of the beast," near Boston. The snow has turned to rain in my neighborhood. Yuck! Still, it's no match for a Peters Brothers classic felt!

No 20" drifts? I've been watching the storm from over on the left coast. My daughter said it ****ed out on them up in NH. The Peters Bros. didn't peter out!!

Thanks Red. I have no idea what the pin is. It's quite a heavy duty thing with a raised Z on an enameled shield ground. It has a backing plate as large and heavy duty as the shield. Maybe someone else knows it's significance, but to me it is just something a former owner stuck on there. For sure it is not Filson's doing.

I was kind of holding out for Zorro, but it could be Z car.

If I ever got good enough for you guys to proudly wear my hats, I'd be so happy!

Very nice. The beret looks like Weimar (atmosphere).
