An overcast Tuesday morning calls for the 1946 Vita-Felt Stetsonian with the oddly endearing cattywampus liner.

Spring has sprung on the East Coast! That vita-felt is one of my favorites, and looks so good with the blooming flowers in the background. I'll keep an eye out for that unicorn!

The weatherman is stabbing my plan for a nice week of felts in the back. So it's a bit of linen and straw for the next couple of days.

Should be a fine day in the straw.

Killer band on that one, Michael.
You look ready to meander around a tropical locale.
Very nice.

I commiserate with you about the warming weather. I always mourn the end of felt season :-(.
I need to move somewhere that the climate suits my hats...

Enjoy.

I really like the color of that felt. Very nice.

Thanks, Fed.

Some storm clouds are rolling in. Their color is just like that hat's.
That thing is just so wicked, Greg.

Thank you, Matt. Glad you're back and let me chime in on the beard. Killer.


What a COLOR, Greg!! Real, REAL nice.

Thanks very much, Charlie.

Great hat & color Greg. Always enjoy seeing it. At bit bluer than Blue Smoke, for comparison sake.

Thanks, HJ. This hat always surprises me, as it really changes with the lighting conditions. Indoors it can look dark gray and in the outdoors it can look very similar to my sky gray OR, though side by side they're very much different.

Thanks Red. I picked that one up locally sometime this winter. I guess it's time to inventory the straw collection, if I can remember where I have them stashed away.

Super looking Strat today, Red. Love those colors and I definitely want that shirt.

Thanks Matt. Great looking Stetsonian today. I still haven't run across a Vita-felt. I, too, think about moving somewhere with a longer felt season. Any suggestions?

Going on vacation Michael?
I'm always on vacation Perry. Unfortunately, unpaid. Great looking Royal today.

Thanks all,
Michael

Yup.

Keep on looking for that Vita-Felt. It's out there waiting for you somewhere.
The temps look good, but I think that 150" of precip a year might be a bit much for my tastes. Perhaps an island off of Maine, or Iceland, Sweden or Scotland would do the trick.

I keep my eyes open for Vita-felt, but my local supply has been pretty dry for all hats lately.

Good point. I wonder if Iceland, Sweden or Scotland accepts climatological refugees...

Application Question: "Reason for Application for Asylum with Refugee Status?"

Answer: "It's too warm in U.S. making it impossible for me to wear felt hats during many months of the year. That makes me very sad."
