You may have sprained my brain with this week's selections, Stefan. I had to back and forth and forth and back, repeatedly, to make my decisions. SO many wonderful choices, sir! In the end, I'm going with the Mossant in first place, the Borsalino Biber in second, and the Ursus Ossido in third. Thank you for a truly glorious Sunday viewing.
Thanks, Mark. I'm sure your brain will recover;)

Black hats, for some reason, have a funereal reputation. I disagree. A black Fedora can lift an entire outfit, it's a stylish accessory of timeless elegance. Mine was hand made by Susquehana Hats, it has never faded and still retains it's strong colour.
The ability to make a black hat was once the requisite to become a master hatter and black hats were the pinnacle of elegance and standing. We need more love for black hats and you show exactly how its done, Robert.

Always good to see some love for these from folks outside of my Jewish community. I've got lots of them, but don't wear any as nicely as Robert does.
