Hey all!
Happy Thanksgiving to all US Loungers!
Fruno's Game Bird is a great choice for the day, but I think this one is perfect.

You both look very happy, I've been enjoying the photos of your time together. I say in all sincerity, very sweet!


This hat is a real time traveler Daniele. It looks like it just came off the shelf. I agree about the crown lines, maybe not "Chubby", let's say it is "Portly". Love the smooth looking finish. Nice.


Nice looking color, this Tawny. Tones of brown are perfect for this day of thanksgiving. Wishing you a wonderful one Bob.



Nice lines and color. What ribbon treatment are you considering?



Happy Turkey to you and yours Matt. You selected a stupendous lid for your family to enjoy. Glad you shared it with us this morning. Amazing. Gotta find me a Vita Felt. On my short list of covets.
Happy Vita-felt and Thanksgiving to you and yours.
Off to the Thanksgiving church potluck. Its just the wife and I and her parents left here in town, so a full meal is overkill. Yay! Church Lady food. I have a better chance of getting ham instead of turkey this way. So all is good. I'm giving a shout out to @mmbarnes with my Mallory Ten homburg, with a pinch, cuz...family.
A new pocket square is also getting some "breast" (pocket) time, just a turkey reference for good measure. Have a good glutton everyone.

And...it is 62 degrees and sunny - weird on T-day. A record I think.
Wonderful Stetson, Matt. Nice warm shade of brown.
Thank you, gentlemen.

Mike, that Mallory belongs on your head. It, totally kicks ass.

Have fun.

Great looking St Regis, Red. One of the best on the forum.

Superb combination, Michael. And a pocket square in the overcoat pocket too: well done!
Thanks Steur. I was going to put the square in my jacket pocket, but found it was still basted shut and I didn't feel like taking it off again and opening it. Then I noticed this coat has a breast pocket. Problem solved. Great Lee you are wearing today. Very interesting color. You are amassing quite the collection of very fine hats.

Thanks all,
Michael

Michael, thanks. The hat is a T&W Lees of Stockport England, not to be confused with the American brand Lee.

Very nice, looks to be from the 30s

Thanks.
I bought this bowler at the antique shop in Japan recently. It looks rather old one, and was wondering how this hat could have survived thru 90 years keeping this condition.
Really appreciate great materials and professional work of Stetson!

Happy Thanksgiving, all! Wearing my brown St. Regis to Subway to pick up lunch before hitting the dusty trail up to Los Angeles:

Drive safe, the St. Regis will protect you. We saw an image of Los Angeles on the news last night, miles of brake lights, 6 lanes wide. Thinking of you today brother!

Everyone is looking great throughout the week. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving.

The BGCD finally arrived, so I decided to work on the bash this morning and make it my turkey day head gear.

Don't hurt yourselves too bad with the food.

I dig that color, is it a shade of green/olive? Nice brim.

Stetson the Temple in Light Grey

Happy Thanksgiving !!!

Yes, all is right with the world now. I've seen Rodolfo pins today.

Happy Thanksgiving from Barbados!

Sun Body today

Sun body indeed. Oh, you mean the hat, sorry.

Been a little busy the last couple of days, but great looking hats everyone. This one is from yesterday: Lees eventide.

Beautiful shape. Interesting model name as well. I assumed you were showing us the British version of Lees. Maybe you need an American one for comparison.

You slay me John! In a couple of weeks, you can sleigh me. Nice Pilgrim. Interesting that the name underlines "Rim" a hat reference?

Thanks.

Derby condition is hit and miss here in the US Market. I've seen perfect, pristine Stetsons, and ones that are beat up. I wonder if it has a correlation with the owners, kind of banker vs factory worker kind of thing. During the first parts of the 20th century, just about every man had a stiff felt, rich or poor.

Thanks Red!
I'll have to find a hat with Christmas tie-ins...
Dunno about the underlining in the logo. Could be.
