Up in the morning and off to work (w/ apologies to Chuck Berry)

Gus Miller Custom in Bone. Inspired by a Knox 100 that is in some Lounger's hands, but I forget which one

Rainy day in Funkytown. The cooler weather allows me to take out some pieces I thought would be stored for a bit longer. I scored this back in the spring,, but have only gotten a few wears out of it so far. Fantastic Mallory Fifteen; great big boxy crown, well-proportioned brim with a Duplex (Cavanagh) edge. Fifteen samoleans bought you a decent hat back in the day.

More than decent I'd say. Excellent!

Thank you buddy. You're right. The color on this one is really rich and the brushed finish gives it a bit of a sheen. As creased, the crown on this one is five inches tall. The tan one I did also has the same crown height, as creased. It just doesn't look as tall as this one because of the wider ribbon.

Just to add, I don't mean to be critical of someone's hard work but the Lounge's new update is making it difficult to post anything with its freezing up and constant "loading". Anyone else experiencing problems with this new update?
I don't have that problem with tapatalk...

Hey Terry:
Yup like constantly. UNTIL...i followed Rockwater’s suggestion to install the app called Adblock Plus (free).
It’s been a week, not one freeze, just a handful of re-loads and flickers. I exclusively use an iphone but others have said it works for computers etc.
Thanks Rockwater!!

I'll have to try this. I don't do tapa-talk on my phone much, but the quirkyness of the computer interface is quite frustrating.

That’s a take me back look!
Haven’t seen bellbottoms since....well Disco days! And that’s a sweet looking jacket. I’ll be a epic cool looking once it gets a few bar fights under it’s belt.
Love everything about the Champ.
