Last weekend in Osaka for an early birthday celebration for Etsuko since I’ll be out of the country on her real birthday. I wore my Hornskov Emissary.

Etsuko wore her new birthday hat, a Maxim.

I also wore my Doctor Marten’s. They always bring out the rebel in me!

Yesterday I went with my ’50s Strat.

Edit: No I didn’t. The Strat was another day recently (no photo). This is the Borsalino I wore yesterday.

Echter Mayser "Superbe", possibly mid 1950s. The felt is a pleasant shade of brown with a great finish. Also very nice band - bow, and brim binding work. It was sold out of Ernst Köln Men's Store which was a common source for fine hats. I found this Soft Felt back in 2013.

"Die Camber - Form Mayser" "Mein Neuer Hut! / My New Hat!" Advert possibly mid 1950s. The above Soft Felt is A Camber - Form. Most commonly worn Brim Up.

Three VERY nice hats, Gary! Etsuko's Maxim is especially charming!

Excellent all around, Gary. Really like the tall crown on the Hornskov.

Final Sabbath in our Atlanta home and I received the Vimenet tuxedo hat, restored by @belfastboy, just in time to give one last US wear and pack for Israel. He really did a fantastic job (as shown in other threads here).

Absolutely gorgeous, Jeff. Well worth saving. Great job by @belfastboy!

The T&W Lees wolf, raindrops and all. Good to hear that you enjoyed the concert Stefan, it's good to know that a 70 plus year old Scotsman can still pack 'em in.
Fabulous Mark, just fabulous.

With the sun shining for once, I took the risk of wearing The Stetson Sovereign to church this morning. Mercifully, the rain held off. I tell you, the wet weather we have had throughout this winter has been Biblical.

Thank you, Robert. I hope to be in that shape when I'm 73 (I still can't sing no matter what). Looking good there and the Stetson probably could take it.
