Wow, straw in december, no way we can do that here! It's a bit surreal seeing you in a straw hat and shirt in the sunshine against a bright blue sky with those bare trees behind you. Nice work on the hat again!
Thanks Celia!
The reprieve from the season was, alas, short-lived and I ended up walking the home half of my daily walk shivering. But well worth being able to bust out a buntal in winter!:)

Today I had the honour of being a waiter at my youngest daughter's school christmas dinner.

Everyone looking mighty fine today!!
My hat today. A black fur felt with asymmetrical crown and a wide upturned brim edge. It's my favorite hat and I made it ages ago. It's in two pieces, crown and brim blocked separately and stitched together. Faux leather trim. The hat blocks were bought new from a German block maker whose name I cannot remember right now (old age?) and who no longer is in business.

Nice! Love the brown burg on you, man. I've been eyeballing Christy's for a modern homburg but never pulled the trigger because they don't offer a lot of photos on the website. Glad I have yours as reference now! What is the width of the brim after curl?

Let me know if you need more photos.

I had the same problem as you before I decided to pull the trigger. Now I need one in dark grey :)

This is the last picture we took with the Pecan NW Hats fedora. A little rain, a little messing around with color filters and such. It doesn't yet show the tighter front pinch and the longer, somewhat wider side dents.

I'm pretty sure that's going to be my next color combo from Michael. Thanks for the inspiration!

A great looking hat Kuki. I can see why it's still a favorite after the passage of ages.

Snazzy!! That upturned collar makes you look ready for action.
Thanks Kuki. While I was out thrifting today I had a gentleman compliment me on the coat I was wearing. And then at the next thrift store, across the parking lot, he sort of apologized for bothering me and said he liked the whole outift and he should hire me to do his shopping for him. Ha ha.

Hey folks!
Many thanks for the likes and nice words. Always appreciated!:)
Today is a stunningly beautiful day. I rarely use the word gorgeous, but today would merit it.
It's flippin' gorgeous out.
So to take full advantage of a straw day in December, my WWII era Parabuntal that I finished from a hood some time ago and recently redone and with a pug I rescued from a ladies' hat I found in a thrift store last week.

But enough gabbing! I have to enjoy this gorgeous day some more!
You all have a great one too.

Sent from thin air using electricity and other wizardry.
Super Moe!! Looks like a nice tight weave, and I like that pug.
 
Thats a nice hat Bob !!

Thanks Rodolfo! The Whiskey Gannon you posted makes you look very young. Need to get me one of those!

Loving the ventilation holes Bob!

Thanks Christina. They are a bit askew on one side and it really messes with my OCD.

Such a great hat day everyone!
 
Headed out to the Saloon Floozies Annual Christmas Party wearing a Tom Mix & "Billy" my Easy Rider coat with all the long fringe.

Diggin' the fringe. I would like to be able to pull off that look, but I'm afraid I would come off looking like that lawyer you used to always see -- Jerry Spence.

Just an old Stetson and some old Jesse Bogle smooth ostrich.

New hat? Or am I just getting confused by the number of hats in the last few days. Looks great as do the boots.
