Gorgeous, Alan!

Love the velour Manfred.
Wow! A nice grey fedora from an unknown to me hatmaker. Alan, where'd you find that gem?

 

[mayserwegener]

Alan, Super find! Beautiful form, color and finishing! Looks to be in NOS condition!

 

[alanfgag]

Thanks AL, SCB, Steve... have had this for a while. It's a good lightweight for late summer.

Suited cboy, my apologies for speaking in abbreviations. RSD = Royal Stetson DeLuxe.

Alan, that hat is simply the picture of elegance. Just magnifique!

Manfred, very sharp. Looks good on you.

OH, The store name and the unreeded sweat were distractors.
Embossed crest for a store logo is a new one on me.

Lee/Optimo Baku

 

[alanfgag]

Great shot of your silvermist, David.

Very nice, RLK. I handled a baku straw hat that was in for renovation at Gary White's shop a year or so ago and have hoped to find one since. It was a wonderful ultra-light weave.

Stupendous Alan!

I'm really loving this hat. The dove colored felt is nice and the wide brim binding is something I haven't had before.

 

[danofarlington]

That's a great-looking Borsalino. Part of a successful hat-wear is matching the thing up with some supporting clothes. Actually, nowadays I often choose my clothes based on the hat I want to wear, rather than the other way around.

New VS 100! Incredible, as usual-

 

[DJH]

Hmm, I'm not a real thin ribbon guy (although I have a few nice TAR hats) but the VS100 is possibly the coolest Work of Art I've seen.

Fantastic hat, Brando!!
