Stetson Sovereign quality today
Beautiful! Your hats really are stunning, such an inspiration! What is the inside of your ladies' fedoras like? Are they finished like most men's hats or unlined with a grosgrain sweatband like most women's hats?
Thanks again. I will wear a black hat tomorrow. Look forward to seeing more of your hats. Maybe the fantastic Bowler you posted?
Beautiful finish on that one Daniele.Every promise is a debt, so they say in Italy
Mid of the week with long fur Italian hats
Barbisio Titan ice color
Felt is extremely malleable and difficult to keep in shape
The construction of the felt and finish are superb
The proportions are those of hats without a snap brim
It has come here (stock inventory) in a lucky deal a few years ago
Yesterday Guerra 1855 cream color was a great success.
Thank you all for the appreciation and kind words!
Buon Mercoledì
CeliaThis thread is such a treasure! I am in awe of everybody's hat collections here, especially @mayserwegener 's and @Daniele Tanto 's. Today I wore my old Hobson black fedora (or rather "classic trilby" as my old English milliner once assured me). It's not the grandest of hats, and the brim could benefit from a bit of steaming, but I've had it for 18 years and have worn it through rain and snow so it's pretty much molded itself perfectly to the shape of my head and doesn't get blown of by the autumn winds.
Celia
I thank you with my heart for your generous opinion on hats that I show here.
Many of them represent the high tradition of the hats production in Italy and France, for Central Europe we have the immeasurable Steve (mayserwegener).
I hope to continue to "inspire awe", but I advise you to have fun with hats.
I saw that you have a very interesting derby and a workhorse Hobson who is also the partner for many years.
Keep it tight
Have a nice day and thanks again
Your nickname in ancient Italian means
celia
cè·lia/
feminine noun
Joke, joke, with no intention of mocking or harm.
Celia – Even with that small amount of head in the picture I can tell it suits you. With your matching hair bow… Awesome.
For me, my Borsalino Nutria.

That is really an interesting hat. And it looks good on you.Thank you. It does, but unfortunately it is very faded. i tried to take a picture, but it doesn't really show the details and the colours are a bit off. The liner is white with a red and gold crest:

Underneath the crest there is actually a banner saying "Superior Quality" which is so faded it is practically invisible now. The words underneath (Hobson London) are also almost gone and barely discernible in the photo.
Here is a picture of the name on the sweatband:

Celia means above all a bland joke made with wordsI didn't know Celia meant joke in Italian, you learn something new every day. I can read and understand some Italian, but unfortunately I don't speak the language...
I definitely have fun with hats, always have done, and wish more people in this world would too! Life's just better with a hat on your head, but I guess everybody here already knows that My taste in hats is mainly European, so seeing you and Steve wearing your collections and reading your knowledgeable posts is a real treat. I love the long hair felts you've been wearing recently, they have such a luxurious feel to them. I have a couple of long hair hats myself, but they are classical ladies' models rather than men's fedoras.
You brighten up my morning, and ease my pain a little. I really like this color, however, it is to "wild" for my wife. She really needs to take a fashion leap!
And such a wonderful tone of green! It is a great one for the Christmas season! I suppose it would be trotted out on St. Paddy's Day as well. Hell, wear it all the time, it is fantastic!Stetson Sovereign Twenty in green today. It needs to be re-flanged since the brim is a bit wonky, but it fits well and I like the character it has.
Yes, this is one of my favorites! Love the sweater also! Not an ugly Christmas sweater at all!
