Buckaroo Hatters 100% beaver custom. It's done an excellent job of keeping the rain off me most of the day. Wierd weather in Knoxville right now...

What hat are you talking about?

 

[mattface]

My recently acquired 40's era Stetson has become my favorite hat of late. It came from John Arioli men's store in Barre VT, and fellow lounger Johnnydollar gave me a tie from the same shop. The two together inspired my outfit today, a look I like to call 1940s farmer goes to town.

I put on my clean jeans and jacket, and my good ticking stripe shirt, my tie and my best hat and headed into town.

Thanks, probably '50-ish(+_ a half decade), no real clues for precision.

Thanks, I still haven't figured out where exactly John Arioli's shop was located, but I did find out about a book on the history of Barre's Main street that will likely answer that question. Regardless, this picture was probably taken within 3 blocks of where that store was.

Matt, that's a great shot and a good look for you.

 

[mattface]

Matt, that's a great shot and a good look for you.

thanks. I don't usually wear ties, and when I do it's usually a skinny one, but this one seems to work in a weird fun way with blue denim and matress tick. Here's the "colorized" version
