Great hat, Fabio. Classic style.

Very nice, perry. Black hats matter and we don't see all that many black Stetsons.

Beautiful color on that one Stefan. French week is looking very promising !

Thanks, Tim. More goodies to come for sure.

Riding out for essentials. Coordinated the best I can. Be safe y’all. View attachment 229733

Works for me. Don't drop the standards, Alan.

Thanks Stefan. Not often I'm seen in a 4" brim. But fun once and awhile.

That's a nice looking woolie, Stefan. Great colors to it.

Thanks Tim. This one showed up in a Halloween bin at my favorite vintage store a couple of years back. It was well stained, but cleaned up moderately well. After looking at a few creases in it I decided I liked this one best.

Thanks,
Michael

Thanks, Michael. Some woolfelts deserve their place in the limelight.

HAPPY EARTH DAY !

I did my part by planting a new Japanese Maple.

Also, inspired by @Randall Renshaw Stetson 3x Fifteen, wearing mine that was so generously gifted by @Rmccamey.

It may have lost its spot to the Idorsca, but still firmly in the top ten, Michael. Great outfit as well.

Been teleworking, but had to drive into the office today as the software needed is not available on my remote connection. RAIN!

Knox 15 for the trip:

A twisted bow knot; a favourite. The hat's a favourite too. Gorgeous hat, Doug.

Day three of French week. Don't want to end up with leftovers (not a French thing to do), so a two hat day.
Tirard homburg (or 'diplomatique') in "bleu de nuit" (night blue).

And Super Fléchet Marquis (from overwelt to raw edge to its current bound brim)

Duck your head is what I have been trained to do. I need to duck my hat! My morning jaunt found me out in in a Knox Vagabond. Lovely unlined hat that takes a crease with barely any nudging. My hat was re-creased during my jaunt thru the woods.

Post lunch escapade was done wearing my Stetson Stratoliner (cadet blue).

Home and cooling off with a spot of tea. A Monsavais Cap was comfy as I have been watching the birds at the feeders.

Be safe, be strong and see you on the streets soon, Eric -

Your hat is sty'n and certainly up to the task. Back to you-be safe.

I appreciate the sculptural leaves and hues of a Japanese Maple. In my neighborhood it would have to be in a protected southern exposure with great drainage. Not going to happen for me. I will appreciate yours and others. Happy Earth Day.

I am gaining a lot more appreciation for the French skills and contribution to hats via your posts. I look forward to seeing the "French Connection." Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, Eric. So kind of you.

You always look so sharp. Thanks for pulling up the sartorial appearance on this thread.

Thank you, Joe

That’s a beauty. You look fantastic Steve.

Tuesday eagle roost update: The eagles were more visable and active this morning. I went early (before 7:30am) and without humans/dogs and other disturbng influences I got to see them hunting and adding to the ungainly structure perched very high up. On a side note, on the way home I amost yelled to the pigpens to maintain social distancing.

I will have to remind myself to carry a better camera soon so that I can get something other than small dots in a large pic background.

The local wildlife is going about a "normal" dry spring routine. Reassuring in the morning.

Thanks Stefan. I've been lucky to acquire a few black Stetsons to my collection.

Glorious pairing. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Eric. I like your pic of roosting Eagles. I do not see many in our area, but many hawks out and about.

A very distinct style. Cool hat, Joe. Not as pronounced in person as one would expect, I believe.

Thanks Stefan.l. Not sure exactly what you are referring.. the stitching?

Fabulous, Steve. The liner is indeed fantastic and a hat in a quarter size as well.

Stefan, Thank you! So many great French Hats from you this week! Keep them coming!

Thanks, Eric. More good ones to come. Hope the Vagabond came away unscathed. Excellent as always.

Thanks Stefan.l. Not sure exactly what you are referring.. the stitching?

I am referring to the stitching, yes. In the pics the stitching looks very dominant, but I've been wearing a similar hat and found that even at a short distance it isn't all that noticeable anymore. "Merci" for the likes on the French contributions of today.

Gotcha.. probably not as dominant out and about.. but I still tend to be conscious of it... as it is already a much larger brim than I amused to. So that effects it too. The thread I used to replace the brim stitching is a bit thicker than the original thread that is still on the band since it was the closest in color I could find. So it is a bit thicker at the brim than on the band. That contrast actually isn’t bad to me though. When I did my first attempt I had looped the thread through the needle as I normally would so that you have two strands of thread... when I had it about half way done it was looking very Sheriff Woody from Toy Story. So I started over with a single strand all the way through. Came out much better... but surely adds to the dominance you noticed/mention I think.
