A very nice week in Fedoras, Stefan.

Enjoy your 2 weeks in Italy. Looking forward to the report :)
Thanks, Steve. The stay won't be two full weeks but there are two sundays in there.

Got to go with the Stratoliner, but as ever, all are just so stylish.

Stefan said: This weekend is the annual fair in Volendam. A four day endurance test of alcohol consumption and terrible music (decent rock music is in very short supply). Used to be a local thing, but seems to have grown in some sort of national event.

We went to a festival last weekend, called Twinwood, (google it) the music, mainly 30's 40's & early 50's was fabulous. Loved the big band on the Friday night. It's always popular but this year it sold out early, so many people with lock down cabin fever.

If you do look up Twinwood you will love the effort of festival goers all in period dress. Hats galore.
Thank you, Robert. Twinwood looks like fun for sure. The annual fair has its own charm (at least it used to); seeing if you could make it through the full four days (monday being the last day) was a rite of passage of sorts.

Good Morning. I would like to share hats I wore yesterday evening an this morning. I have had oodles of chores and tasks that I desired to complete. I changed hats/caps so as not to beat my hats up.

Last evening a Stetson 7X to enjoy some evening lake time.

I went back to house for beverages for my brother-in-law and myself. We enjoyed a cool early Fall evening. A stetson Vogue was my hat choice.

I’m wearing a felt Resistol (have no idea about age) since it’s overcast and cooler today. I brought along my Conner beater rain hat in case we get heavy rain while I’m out. A couple of young employees at the hardware store came up to me and one said “Hey we just wanted to tell you that hat is top tier!” I don’t think it’s exactly top tier but it’s nice and he was being sincere. It’s those kinds of things that convince me good hats are relevant in today’s world.

Thank you for the hat compliment sir. Back at you and your Stetson Vogue.

I took my son to his first soccer match yesterday, the Portland Timbers beat Atlanta United, a little end of summer vacation treat for both of us. Wearing my 3X O View attachment 449138

When done! Introduce them early to enjoying the World's Game, IMO. Cheers to your OR.

This afternoon I was finishing up outside and pulled out some hats that I need to wear more often.

Head time for a run over to the neighbors in this oldster Stetson. Unlined, terrific brim shape, unique ycontrast thread in the upturned brim edge treatment, excellent ribbon and a leather sweat that has aged some 90 years.

I sipped some cold brew after completing some raking and choose a Stetson OR Twenty Five (w/Gold crown liner) as my hat. I have been wearing this hat for chores over the years and the leather sweat shows the outcome.

Wearing this hat and putting wear into the leather sweat found me pulling out other similar hats and putting them in a position to be more readily reached. My thought is to save wear and tear on this Stetson OR 25. I choose a small stack of OR's.

Pictured below are three of the silverbelly hued felt Stetson OR's.
