Two hat day.
Off this morning for a pup walk in a Mallory Coast to Coast.

And out to replenish the coffee larder this afternoon in a Stetson Musketeer.

I am struck that the Mallory is such a "tidy" hat. Neat in its ribbon and binding treatment. Ah the infamous Stetson Muskateer! I am so pleased it has found an appreciating hat rack to reside. Love the creasable felt, fancy stitching and binding / ribbon treatment. Thanks for sharing your hats of late. I do not pass along enough comments.
Cheers to all posters! While I do not often comment on posts, do know that I view and appreciate all posts to this thread.
Best wishes, Eric -
Two fine choices for today, JimTwo hat day.

I do tend to baby my Musketeer a bit. But I do try to get it out and about on occasion.Thank you, Eric. I am lax in complimenting you, as well.
The thing about the Mallory that you can't see is the hand. This C2C has a very velvety feel to it.
The Musketeer has a cousin in one owned by @Blare. His is in better shape, I think.
Looks like a great setting for it.Went to my in-laws for dinner this evening, wearing my graphite Akubra Banjo Paterson. Nice to get out and BBQ with the family.

My in-laws have 20 acres of wooded property it's beautiful out there and so peaceful.Looks like a great setting for it.
Thanks, Bob! I think this one will about round out my derby/bowler collection since I now have black, grey, dark brown, and this light brown.I really like that Jonathan! I need to find a vintage bowler/derby in a color other than black. The '60s Resistol I have just doesn't cut it.
Well she did pick me, so her taste may be a little suspect. But she is right about this hat. Can't thank you enough for it.Jonathan, I'm so happy it finally arrived and so glad that it fits.
Your wife has excellent taste . It really does suit you very nicely.
I'm so satisfied with the two hats I got from you in the swop. I'll definitely be posting those once it's felt weather for me here in Denmark.
You're a gent, and it's always a pleasure to hear from you.
Thanks, Joe, and quite right about pairing it with my jackets as I tend to gravitate more towards natural earth tones. This hat is going to get a lot of head time.That looks great on you. Will work fantastic with all your jackets
Thanks again, Stefan, for finding it. I think I now have six or seven hats where you directly had a hand involved and each one is much appreciated and enjoyed.If the wife's happy, everybody's happy
And she's right, it does look good on you. Glad it all worked out.
Stay safe in that typhoon, Gary.Sunbody today. Struggling a little to keep it on as the winds get up ahead of the approaching super typhoon.
