D'Aquino dark blue today! Made the crown more to my liking. A higher center dent. The felt was easy to work with. I think it's Fepsa felt, because D'Anquino is from Portugal :)

We are leaving for The Hat Festival shortly, (when the lady has finally "put her face on.")
Click on the link to last year's festival. https://www.m35photography.co.uk/bridport-hat-festival-2025/ Then click on: 'photographic portfolio' to see some of last year's headwear.

The Susquehana gets another outing. It's a colour that just compliments any attire.
It will be going up against some very good hats in the best hat competition. I shall report back tomorrow. Enjoy your weekend, everyone.
Sir, I did not expect you had any competition in the UK for best hat. If there is another winner, we expect photographic evidence.

What a compliment, thank you. We arrived too late to enter, a delay due to a collision, had us sitting in a traffic queue forever, but at least we were safe.
It was still a most enjoyable afternoon, my lady managed to damage my wealth, but that's par for the course. Fabric for a new Aloha shirt is now awaiting the skillfull touch of Tina.

Tina says that the Borsalino tops out your attire so well that it wins it.
I say what Tina says, I have been married long enough to know what diplomacy means!
Thank you, Robert. Who are we to argue with our spouses' tastes? They chose us after all.

Ahhhhh, the joys of Sunday. Another lovely selection, Stefan. For me, it's the Berteil Castor as #1, the Panizza Grafite as #2, and the Stetson as #3. And all four of the ties you're showing this week are MUCH to be admired! Thanks, as always!
Thank you very much, Mark.

Here's my humble addition for today...a recent addition to my collection. Royal Deluxe Stetson Vogue . One thing that surprised me was the rear seam on the brim edge binding is not centered on the hat very well. For it being a RD I would have thought the quality control would have never let this hat leave the factory that way. All in all, still a beautiful hat with wonderful proportions.
