Thanks Jim.

Damn... I love that Waverly. And the tie is the BOMB.
I hope that your meeting goes as great as you look.

Los colores!

That's a great hat...

Great hat / tie combo Fruno!

Thank you, gentlemen. Love my Daltons. The tie is an interesting one. I picked it up almost 20 years ago new, from a line called "Molecular Expressions." It's supposed to represent the molecular makeup of para-aminobenzoic acid, or PABA, the active ingredient in suntan lotion. I wear it for protection when it's sunny out. :D

Wearing my Resistol 'Tallboy' conversion again. Man! Spring is here! At least for now. Gotta love Ohio weather!

Ain't it the truth, Terry. Gonna start getting cold again tonight, though.

Thanks Matt. But this is the king View attachment 68417

It's good to be King.

Wearing the Stetson No.1 that Michael R. gifted me. Since I was going western I also wore cowboy boots. It was too windy to do Bama's hat on leg shot so I went this way. Can anyone recommend a good chiropractor?

At one of the schools where I teach, today is Fashion Friday. So I decided to dress to the nines. The Fedora is a 1941 Borsalino, the suit is a Magnoli custom 1930's era, italian wingtip short boots, gold and ruby tie pin, and even Boker pocket knife from the mid forties.

very nice hat ... I am curious as to how you came up with 1941 specifically

Great brim shape and binding. I'm just thinking about how that hat travelled from Vienna to Hamburg and then all the way across the pond to you...

sun, rain, heat... what an unusual February we are having. I finally settled on this Mallory. Tall, but not too tall, Jones.

What a beautiful colour and finish! Your top hat picture earlier was the first thing that made me smile today :)

I hope the kids appreciated the effort you put into that outfit!

Matt, I've always taken the position that you should have at least as many Well days as Sick days.

Great Vita-Burg.

Off to a meeting in the Dalton Waverly

Yes! Great hat-tie colour co-ordination there :) love it!

Recent production Stetson "Brewster." Stetson calls this color "Buck."

Those white stitches around the brim look good, nice to see a modern hat doing something a bit different
These photos are made early in the morning going to the office.
Today traditional, special food for the Friday of the dumplings, not specified as not to offend the sensibilities of animal lovers, then parade of floats with the popular masks.
Yesterday was the Thursday before Lent, today the feast of St. Zeno district, patron of the town

For the morning walk wearing a French hat vintage as wine, Italian, drink today

I believe this is one of the rare hats I possess that can come from before the Second World War

It is made of mixed felt, wool and fur in a deep blue. Without lining

Its dimensions are generous and very comfortable


I thank you for your compliment and comments on homburg Tonak, worn yesterday.
For the parade I will will wear a Borsalino more small proportions
The day was very gray and my hope, like that of all the people of Verona, is that the rain remains in the sky.
Such a beautiful deep blue. Amazing how good some of the old European wool/fur blends hold up, that kind of quality mix just doesn't get made anymore...

Going to be sunny and in the mid-70s today. Want to call work and say that I can't come in because I am happy.

Don't think that'll wash. So I'm going in. But damnit... I'm wearing my Vita-Felt homburg. And there is nothing that they can do about that. View attachment 68397 View attachment 68398 View attachment 68399 View attachment 68400 View attachment 68401 View attachment 68402
Because sunshine... View attachment 68403 View attachment 68404

(Over the glasses in honor of Tommy who I've not seen around much lately. Though my effort admittedly is but a pale imitation.)

Happy Friday!
I hope work wasn't too bad with all that sunshine tempting you outside. Another great homburg, but I expect nothing less from you of course ;)

Beautiful brown homburg! That bow looks nice too...

The sun finally came out this morning! Unfortunately it didn't last and it started raining again in the afternoon, but it's the best we've had in a while. Still very windy, so I needed a wind-proof hat - Borsalino homburg it is! For once I even remembered to take a picture while the sky was still blue :)

A black hat, a blue sky and a face in shade. That is a very tall order for the camera and photographer. Beautiful job! From what we can see, the Borsalino homburg is a great look for you.
