That looks to be in mint condition. Wonderful.

Hey all!
A fast green dog on a slow green day.

Have a great day!

Good to see the dog up and about, John.

Bluegrass green Campdraft today. Stuck in my office today as I am apparently an essential employee. Will be able to work most of the day from home beginning Monday. Much prefer my government office as I am alone in the basement. I am the last person from my division left.

Being an essential employee should bring some priviliges, I think. You better ask your bosses about that (I suggest a special hat of your choosing).

Stay well,

Nice colours and very cool brim binding on that one, Michael.

Ordered groceries on-line and went to pick them up wearing a cap. Groceries wait in a basket with my name with a per-arranged pick-up time. This is a great cap, but no human got to see it this morning in person.

Home grilling some lunch for my wife, dog and I. Wearing a vintage Stetson Playboy (pine green felt)

Another dog walk this time wearing a Gannon (granite beaver hued felt with charcoal trimmings).

I thought about wearing a ribbon of solidarity this morning on my escapades. Better thoughts prevailed.

Be safe, be strong and see you out on the street soon. Best, Eric -

Good to see all the high class hats still get to see the sunshine, Eric. At least we can still appreciate them.
I've read today that we're supposed to sneeze in the hollow of our upper and lower arm, but instead we're hoarding toilet paper, which proves a widespread theory that most people don't know their a%&e from their elbows!

Hello from California!

That's the spirit, Rick. Stay safe.

There are banned politics on the marquis sign above...

Taking NO chances, even FaceTiming!!!

I'm still back in the shack wearing my BSHW "Watchman" in dark olive.
Greg, @Bamaboots, it's a wonder!!

Way to go, Charlie. Looks like I'm going to have to find myself something similar to that Klondike bar. We've got the dike-part well covered over here.

They can’t shut down The Fedora Lounge!!!

You have to admit that taking down tapatalk was a pretty good attempt...

That's a photo that sure lights up these days of darkness, Stefan.

I think that could well be a Fedora Lounge hat challenge, friends. Put together your hats that non hat people think look the same but aren't, take, and then post a photo.

I know what I'll be doing Saturday.

Stay well all!!

Well, we're expecting a good deal of sunshine here the next few days. Might do the comparison of velours I've been delaying for some time now.

But that is ALL my hats from Stingy brim, to western, to fedora....NON-Hat people think they are all the same. Only Top hats and Derbys stand out to them from my other hats......and often they confuse the two...I have actually had people compliment my "Top Hat" when I am wearing a derby and my "Derby" when I am wearing a topper...

Well, you have some work to do then

I am a very greatful and proud owner of an original Randall Randshaw drawing, and now am the proud owner of this Randall Ranshaw Adam's conversation with a highly original, eye catching Randall Renshaw bow treatment.

Very majestic indeed.

Thank you, my friend.

Excellent hat and great ribbon. Glad to see you're holding up the high standard, Steve.

Hey all!

The fineness of the weave of this hat blows me away. Can't imagine how long it took to achieve that level of skill.
Have a great day!

We can all appreciate art when we see it. Superb hat, John.

It may be difficult to photograph Steve, but its quality and beauty still stand out.

Steve, Thank you! Fantastic looking Mallory "Aristocrat" from you!

 

[mayserwegener]

Two great finds, Steve. Love that unusual bow treatment.

Steve, Thanks again!

Definitely helps brighten up our days a bit.

LOL perfect!!

Taking down Tapatalk apparently is the lounge’s version of social distancing... which apparently goes hand in hand with comment 2. that and whatever the heck is happening to Hector right now.

I’m out of autumn/winter hats that are new to the lounge...but I wore my Henschel cowboy hat again today, so despite the repetition, I’ll post it again.
My wife’s in a NewYork Hat Co that I bought for myself near the beginning of this hat journey. I can wear it, but it’s just a little small for me, so I’ve given it to her.

If you wear it, it counts for this thread. Doens't have to be new. Cool pics.

The Dobbs posted above was actually yesterday's hat. Here are the ones for today:
Borsalino Bronzo

And thanks to Randy @Rmccamey a new one to me: Churchill beaver 50 (the highest number in my collection, yay!). Thanks, Randy!

Thanks Stefan. I think this one might be the only one I have with more that one round of stitching on the brim/binding.

How did I ever miss this post yesterday?!!
Wow! Looks great on you!
It’s crazy to think about how through the miracle of the internet and a postal service that those lucky hats were once bogged down in the South American swamp of the Okeefenokee are now liberated to the distant shores of Denmark.
And couldn’t imagine it possible that those felted crowns could ever come to rest on a better man’s head.
The Corolla bow looks smashing on one well dressed Dane!

Early morning I wore my favorite homburg. This early 50's Cavanaugh is an inky blue felt with maroon trimmings. Stunning in person. No person saw me wearing this hat live and in person. It was the perfect hat for a dog soiree. My dog, Tio (Horatio), to the best of my knowledge, did not have an opinion on the hat at all.

Back home, picking up fallen limbs and generally prepping for some chainsaw work this afternoon I was wearing an unlined Stetson Playboy. This 30-40's hat is unique in that instead of the "usual" Playboy ribbon it has a ribbon like a Royal DeLuxe Stratoliner.I have checked that the ribbon is original. The leather sweat is original. Just a unlined version that hybrids features.

Be safe, be strong and see you on back the street soon.

That homburg is one helluva hat. The color combo is stunning.

Both hats are great, but that Homburg ... whoa! Might be my favorite as well. Love the colors and that thin binding just makes it for me. One request ... can we see more of Tio?
