Thanks! It does have some good weight to it and very well balanced. It feels good… I should probably wear a more colorful tie with it! Lol! Now I await appropriate weather to wear it… I live on the coast of South Carolina and it’s going to be in the low to mid 70s every day for the next...

That’s awesome!!!! well I did feel a touch self conscious today but thats all on me. I went to the grocery store this afternoon and it was busy. All eyes were on me (from my peripheral view as I shopped) and noticed some double takes but no one snickered so there’s that… Fashion Faux Pas aside...
Just returned from spending the entire day at the steeple chase… I got a lot of compliments on my Mallory fedora. (And a few on my vintage WWII A-2 flight jacket)
There were a lot of men wearing Fedoras and flat caps so I just blended in.. just the same I did not feel comfortable snapping...

If there was ever a contender to go up against It’s A Wonderful Life this is it! But time you’re viewing accordingly because it’s a heart wrenching story!
