That is one fine hat Bob! Tropic weight on the 4th, what could be better?
Hot enough for a Stetson Select Quality Tropic Weight (circa 1929).

I really like that one, Bob. Very nice.
Excellent!! I used to only like tapered, European-style hats like Optimos and Borsalinos, but after spending several hours looking at Moontheloons Instagram page my eyes have gotten an education.
I guess it's like when you're a kid and start building a taste for different wines.

Visited my Grandkids today. Me, my Granddaughter, who's attending Dennison University, and my Son in Law. I gotta get him hatted. Wearing my Black Resistol conversion again today...

"I gotta get him hatted" hahaha.

Did you get married at 15, Terry? How can you have grandkids of that age? How old are you, if you don't mind saying?

The resistol looks great. Maybe one day I will PM you pics of crowns I've made myself in the lab. I'm also a pretty good artisan, even if I say so myself.

Couldn't we all use a "tropic weight" ANYTHING? Cool hat, Bob.

Thanks fellas! The felt on this hat is pretty incredible. It is susceptible to the "butterfly effect". If a butterfly bumped into it, it would change shape. :D

Thanks Red.

Super looking boater. Just love that one. Hope you are having a fine theatre picnic today.

Back from my bike ride. Man, it's a swamp out there.

It's not quite that hazy, my camera lens fogged as soon as I brought it out of the AC. Close thing though.

Happy 4th,

I wish I were as thin as you are, Michael. The Nichols side of my family all have my build, so what's to do? Can't argue with genetics.

Ha! Thank you, Max! I tied a knot that's lasted 44 years! I'm 64. My Granddaughter is 20. Definitely got to get the Son in Law properly hatted!

Thanks again on the Resistol, but yeah, PM me anytime with pics of the crowns you made. I'd love to see them.

I will get them from the office computer tomorrow.

When I do make them myself, it's with a glass of good wine and classical music.
Next time I will also be wearing one of the Borsalinos or Playboys I acquired from Anthony's epic sell-off.

Off to the movies. Sicario? Yawn... a great movie that went nowhere. If the premise is ONLY to set you up for a sequel then my critique is "thumbs down, wait for it to come out on Netflix."

But we had fun being out and about. I wore red, white and blue, including my grade 12 Panama with navy ribbon customized at NW Hat Co, and my 1776 Edmonds spectators with flag-waving doggie socks!
