Way to start a wonderful Friday Perry and Harv!! Great looking lids!

It's a Fawcett Friday for me, with my Blue Smoke, 2-1/4" brim...

Charlie, I like the subtle blue in the last photo. It really changes with the light.

Perry, that is a great crease for your Knox. Well done!

Harv, great crease too. A light touch, lets the crown stand tall!

Quite a different look, Perry. You make it work. Must be real causal Friday at the office.

Like the mid-ribbon Bantam, Harv

Nice Fawcett, Charlie

 

[hatsRme]

Harv I'm a big fan of the Bantam!

The Peak is Perfect, Perry!

Alan your Lago di Como is simply perfect!

Joao the "Stage" is so great on you... YOU should be on stage!

Daniele The curled brim is very, very nice!

From last night, out with Miles, (canine) I always like the noir look o' the Lee

David, I've totally lost my will to do trade shows. I hope you have time for some R&R. That is definitely not a cookie cutter cap, though it does bring to mind some cookies that Donna makes around the holidays.

I can relate to that - for 10 years or more I was out of the trade show routine, but they feature a lot with our new owners. I was in Chicago for a week, but really got to do nothing but set up, do the show, break down (the show, not me!) and have business dinners. Taking the day off today so heading out with my doggies in a bit.

Thanks everyone for the comments on the Cordova cap from yesterday. Jonathan does great work.

Another cap for errands earlier this morning, this one a 30's vintage, formally owned by The Baron from the Lounge

Fantastic cap, David! Get some rest.

great cap, David... great photos Charlie!

Daniele, those stitches are, I think, basting thread to protect the ribbon bow during transit. Usually seen in a less conspicuous color, it could be removed. There should be ample stitching in traditional locations securing the ribbon and bow.

Thank you, Alan!

Akubra Fed IV today

 

[hatophile]

Great photos Charlie, I like the swoop on the VS and your Noir look.
Looking sharp in the cap Dave.
I always like that Bantam Harv.
Cool Fed and outfit Sam.

 

[hatsRme]

Love that Fed, Sam!

 

[Daniele Tanto]

Thank you Alan. You are right the stitches are to protect the ribbon in the storage. It is also my presumption, but I'm not so deep in the vintage hats knowledge to feel myself sure about that. I don't want do a disaster removing them.
Alan the lake of Como as our lake of Garda are always an enchanting destination especially in the fall when tourists are scarce and small villages are more "human". Your Barbisio "lago di Como" is without comment. It is a chef-d'œuvre. I have a special admiration for Barbisio hats.
Charlie your picture are lovely sinister and I see you (maybe I'm wrong) often in trilbies.
Harv when you will decide to come in Verona let me know, we could have sometimes together

Today in a professorial mood with my "Fashion Deluxe" vintage cap.
