Had to run some errands this morning, so my go-to hat was a Stephen L Stetson stingy. It is old, just how old I'm not sure.

Great hats all around today. Cool to see the Stetsonian ripple across the land. Thanks for all of your kind words about mine.

While Knotten is suffering in a 15° windchill, it is 75° here. Too warm for a wool suit. So after my morning business, I stopped by home for a change. I'm lucky to work somewhere that sometimes I can dress like I don't really give a c#@}. Today, I feel like that (except for the hat, anyway). I figure that I gave enough of a c#@} earlier.

Decided to two hattify the day with an old lightweight Adam homburg with a really nifty brim.

The dark skies have brought rain/sleat for the past 2 days. The cold and humid weather found me wearing caps. Monsavais and a Cordova Caps were my choices to fight the uncharacteristic weather. The temps just hovering around freezing are harder than below freezing or warmer on my joints and spirit.

Today is a black and white day.

Thanks, Moe. I'm not sure. I'll have to defer to the better informed.

It does have the same trappings of my THE POLAR. I have had it suggested to me that THE POLAR was likely 1930s and may have been one of Adam's promotional hats of the month that I understand they used to advertise to drum up business. Neat gimmick.

Take it easy.

I have that same size tag on my Adam Panama and when I went through the library thread the only one I saw with that particular tag was attributed to the thirties. But, small sample sizes make for inaccurate results so I was hoping you had more info to better pinpoint that tag's use.
Oh well, I guess we have to keep buying old Adam hats and hoping for dated receipts!:)
