Hello friends, looking forward to catching up a bit. Haven't been around here much lately, but have been wearing my hats diligently, as always.
Here is an assortment, noncomprehenive of course, of how I've gotten from March to June.

Harv, in a lot of ways, that's exactly what a straw hat should be. Simple, not overly precious (For me, anyway, which is probably why I only have a relative few of them).

Wegener, Paper Label missing, possibly mid 1920s to later 1920s. Fantastic Felt with a very soft hand. Over Welt Brim with Hidden Stitch, Tall Crown with Wide Band, Crown Tip Patch survived. Found this hat back in September 2014.

Mini Porcelain Top Hat promo item from the shop (Th. Scheunpflug, Freiberg, Saxony) that sold this Hat.

Thanks sir.



Steve; Not the fuzzy, chamois glorious complicated/difficult felt of the cool weather felts, but your recent showcased hats have unique, classic and classy hues. The vintage feather adds character. Again, thanks for sharing.



Thank sir. I do need to wear my VS fedoras more often. Art Fawcett is and always will be the hat whisperer.



With or wothout that hat appears perfect for warmer weather. Two looks means two days without repeating. Heaven forbid a hat gets repeated.



Michael you wear a boater confidently.

This morning a dog soiree in an unlined brown Stetson Playboy. No humans were seen before 6:30am.

A run was next on the agenda. A walkabout to cool down turned out to be a couple hours in the Park Reserve. A VS Wanderer in a lightweight Art-lite dove hued beaver felt was my fedora choice.

The locals were out in numbers. No humans.

Home and fixing brunch (pasta carbonara with andouille sausage, tomatoes and spinach) had me enjoying my meal on the deck in a VS Wanderer (Art-lite silverbelly beaver felt).

Cheers on this June Sunday, Eric -

Brilliant, Eric. I always admired the color combo on that Wanderer.

WOW, Steve! very cool, and powerful sublime profile.

I'll have to say that is a great liner. Why don't they do more of that these days?

Wegener "Seal", 5 1/2 inch crown open, 2 5/8 inch brim, probably mid to later 1950s. Great felt finish / color and very high quality components / construction. Also has crown side ventilation with breathable liner.

Haven't had the time to post regularly this last couple of weeks (let alone think of a theme). So a few random ones of this week.

Jeff, Thank you! Great series of Soft and Stiff Felt Hats from you! Super Pipe Smoking Bandanna too!

Randy, Thanks! This is the only Soft Felt I have encountered with such a liner but I agree it's a good idea. I have some vintage German Straw Boaters with something similar which might have been the influence.

Yes it's a little logo I made up and had stitched on a tee. I was just playing around with some ideas. Here are a couple of other ideas I had.

That is just about the perfect hat. The proportions are large without being clownish. I really like everything about this hat, Steve. I’ve even saved some screen shots for a possible custom...hope that’s alright.

Brent, Thank you! It would be great to see it replicated. Here are more details. This hat survived some very tough times.
