It's a pair of shoes. Actually, it looks distinctly like the hat Esther made for me.

 

[TheDane]

Then I sincerely hope, the shoes will fit you comfortably

Really? Can you post a pic?

What I have is a new custom made for me by Brass Rooster from a 1950s Mallory lightweight hood. The hat itself weighs just under 4 ounces.

I think it's pretty nice.

I have to wait until at least Tuesday to get it. Argh!

Well Esther did bash the crown in a tad, but other than that, this is what it looks like.

You will need to scroll through the, 'what hat,' thread to get the reason why Mrs Wiggins, the hat mannequin is wearing my hat.

Behold! The full sun shot so you can see the nice taupe color:

and worn in the shade:

If you have the cash for the vintage hood, you might just jump on one.

Don't shoot me! I have one in a very similar color. Eeek! 1940's lightweight felt.
