    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    One I neglected to post from maybe a couple of weekends ago. Panama.

    Akubra Overload

    When I was trying to find out how old my Pocketweight Stylemaster, I reached out to the people at Akubra. We came to the conclusion that it is a late 60s hat. They said Australia went metric in 1966, so my hat with the size 60 tag had to have been later than that. The one you’re looking at...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    True enough, but given the choice, I’d rather be galavanting around France, sipping on their wines!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Had some things to get done in the garden this morning, so out there early. Nice, cool temperatures (that won’t last) and a spectacular looking morning made the garden work a pleasure. The regular summer garden hat was in use (Tula palm straw).

    Bailey Toyo for me and Tula palm straw for Etsuko.

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Etsuko says no. And she respectfully asks that you never recommend clothes for her husband again!:D

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    This evening’s selection…. This evening’s hat was a Bailey Toyo. I like dark chocolate (this is 82%) with my whisky.

    This is driving me nuts. Everyone is saying how wonderful it is, and for some reason, I can’t see the pictures. This has happened with Eric’s pictures before but they showed up when I switched networks. It’s not working for this post, though.

    That is a stunner, inside and out!

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Every marriage has its ups and downs, but no one ever truly regretted marrying a bartender! As the mid 30s temperatures continue, nothing hits the spot like a frozen margarita. This is a nashi pear flavoured one made from ice blocks…at least that’s what they called in New Zealand. Over here...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Envious of those temperatures. Those highs are lows for us here in Japan this year. We’re still up in the low to mid 90s every day. I picked up a couple of second hand Schotts over summer which I’m keen to try in the wild, and even more so, I want to get back into my felt hats. Still a while...

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Curiosity got the better of me and we ordered some NEAT glasses. Comparing them with a Glencairn, we’ve been neither here, nor there. But over the last few days, we’ve had some Islay whiskies in them, and I must say, I think the NEAT glasses win with our small sample of Caol Ila, Classic...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Not fair! I’m in the reverse situation. So few straws, so much time. My straw collection pales in comparison to my felts, but these mid 30s temperatures are set to continue through September.:(

    Hawaiian shirts and fedoras

    Okay, the Akubra Range doesn’t strictly qualify as a fedora. As for the shirt, I’ve been looking at Hawaiian shirts for a while now, but haven’t come across anything that really appeals here in Japan. What I did hit upon was Kariyushi shirts. This is Okinawa’s version of a Hawaiian shirt...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    I haven’t been posting much lately. High temperatures and a sparse collection of straw means I would be constantly repeating myself. Anyhow, today it was a Panama for shopping and an Akubra Range for a dinner outing.
