So glad to see that one again. Fabulous hat.

Looks great, Charlie! Good to hear the surgery went well. Brent is currently holding the top spot in the enabler's race!
Thanks Stefan. Definitely one of my best finds here.

Great bunch of hats. Portis used some of the coolest ribbons. Like that contrasting brim stitch, too.

Great Borsalino... love the whole ensemble today Michael.
Thanks Joe. Great to see the Musketeer again.

Always enjoy seeing the dark chocolate Borsalino, Michael.
Stellar jacket, Pendleton??

Thanks Bowen. The jacket is constructed exactly like the Pendleton Topsters and the Merrill Woolen Mills jackets that I have, but I believe is was made by a very talented home sewist.

Thanks all,
Michael

Cool Cavanagh, Charlie. Hope you have a speedy recovery

Good morning, noon, and night, everybody!!
I'm home in recovery from a completely successful surgical adventure. The downtime has given me more time to follow the conversations here, and I am delighted to report the resulting transfer of custodianship from Brent to me of this (instant favorite!!) 1950s (?) Cavanagh classic, in size 7-7/8!!!!! It fits nearly like a custom, right out of the box, too. I don't know if you had an opportunity to put an accurate date on this one, Brent, but the age markers are mixed, if not hazy. At the moment I am thinking circa 1953, based mostly on the sweatband and production tag factors. Then, there is the liner graphic...

My "new" favorite hat, thank you Brent!!
