A classic post WWII Borsalino from the dear departed Rogers Peet. I used to shop there with my Dad when he worked on 42nd St.

I just walked into a bus stop sign looking at that... but the pain and embarrassment is worth it.

Nice collection of fine looking lids today. Everyone looks great.

Very comfortable weather here in Central Ohio this afternoon. Wearing this reblocked and reworked modern Whippet in "Natural" that a fellow Lounger gave me.

Mid ribbon with a double tailed bow. The stitching is hidden.

Ghost Peppers are no joke!

Thank you, Perry.

Just a note: Anyone thinking of putting out $225 for one of these modern Whippets will be sorely disappointed if they do so. Take your money and put it into a custom made or into buying an actual vintage. I had to put some work into this hat to get it looking half way decent from its original factory specs. It's not a bad looking hat now after having to take it apart and rework it.

Well, I had a fleeting thought of wearing a Stetson Playboy to observe the passing of Mr. Hefner, but due to receiving this beauty in Natural from Michael Gannon yesterday, that thought died quickly.

Because Doug wants gill shots, and because sunshine, and because Matt...

Loving the new brown liners.
