My wife saw an ad for Tecovas boots online and bought me a pair of their roper boots.
I really like them, simple design and very soft calf leather - fit perfectly.
The company was started by a couple of young guys in Austin and they outsource the manufacturing to a company over the border...
My very first hat was an Akubra Campdraft - current price is about $130 shipped from Everything Australian.
The felt was rather stiff when I got it, but after a few years it softened up really nicely.
I've worn it in rain, snow and extreme Texas sweatfests and it's still as good as new...
Ready to head downtown to sip frozen margaritas on a 95F Sunday afternoon. BSHW Milan.
Thanks everyone for the likes and comments on the old optimo style Panama I was wearing this morning.
Cheers! David
Cosmopolitan dinner with folk from London, Dublin, New York and Vermont, in the Fort Worth Stockyards.
I wore my VS Panama - love this hat!
Cheers! David
Thank you everyone for the comments and likes for my old Panama from yesterday.
Another vintage straw hat today, a nice Disney Milan. This one has a really fine weave (is it called a weave on a Milan?) and a ribbon from Tom Gomez.
Cheers! David
Funny thing - only the “before” photo initially loaded for me, so I was thinking “hmm, that’s Tim’s work?” Sorry, Tim, I should have known better, the “after” is fantastic. [emoji3]
I say keep the center crease!
