Hey folks!
Did someone at this table order a mid-week special?
One Duck a la moe coming right up!
40's Dobbs Game Bird Guild Edge. Served rare. Al fresco.

Hopefully someday trout will be on the menu.
Have a great day!

It is up to 60 degrees here, not quite yet though. No sun. I live vicariously through you Blue!

Just took a stroll outside with a coworker to pick up some lunch from a local seafood eatery. Blue skies and sun in full force right now! I'll try to send some your way =)

Moe; You have to get up at the quack of dawn to get ahead of Charlie. He is a tough nut to quack as he has quackitude.

CD
I'm trying to love this hat... I really want to

FWIW, it looks great. What is it you don't like about the CD? That it's stiff? I used to have an Akubra Squatter. When I got it, it was stiff as a board. After getting it soaked--and I mean SOAKED--in a rainstorm a couple of times, it become quite soft. You might come to love it. Just sayin'.

I've had it for years ... so that theory is pretty much gone
it is stiff ... thick as a brick ... and the quality is pretty much crap
I have other Akubra hats that I like just fine .... this one is trash ... strangely it is the acclaimed Heritage grade and all the others are Imperial

Yep, inconsistency is about the only thing that's consistent when it comes to modern, factory made felt fedoras.

Now that is how you wear a hat with class. Good looking Stetson Charlie.

Everybody's been wearing great hats again! My compliments to all. The brim binding on @hatsRme 's stetson is especially interesting, and I loved seeing @sergejvandervreede 's pictures of Antwerp - always a beautiful & fun city. And that hat Esther made is outstanding!

Looks nice from this distance, would some sanding even the edge? Wobbly edges get to my nerves too!

I haven't dared to sand the edge yet as I have no experience doing anything like that and I didn't want to make it worse, but maybe I should try...
Inspired by your Harrods hat the other day, I decided to wear mine today. It's made of a thick, velvety deep blue rabbit fur felt. Forgot to take a picture of it on my head I'm afraid.

Had to make a short run to the store. My Rose Bowl hat kept me company. Love this hat every time I put it on.

Very stylish! Interesting band/ribbon.

Very stylish! Interesting band/ribbon.

Thanks! Yes, it's made of a kind of thick soft cord and could technically double up as a wind trolley. It makes a change from the wider ribbons I usually prefer, but variety is the spice of life
Your hat today is great too, suits you perfectly. And I like the way you always stick your hat pin through the bow. I need to start making a habit of that too, I've got so many pins I barely ever use...
