A rather bodacious leghorn straw from Supernatural... something about it reminds me of the hats Johnny Weismuller wore in the Jungle Jim movies - probably about the same time.

I havent used the Fedora Lounge site here for quite awhile, I've been using the Facebook edition instead. Seems there are alot more spam ads than usual. That's very sad to see. Anyway, thought I'd say hi to everyone. For today's 106 degree Texas heat day I'm wearing my American Hat Co, Bangora straw. It has a beautiful weave pattern. Western Hat style hat with a fedora flair. 3" brim with 5" crown. Bangora straw hats are very durable. Sometimes a Bangora hat can be called a Bangkok weave or Bandera straw. Bangora hats are made with paper yarn on a machine that weaves the hat together like straw. They are tough hats and will stand up well in all types of weather.

Great to see you around Ken. I'd been wondering where you've been hiding. Now, I know: Facebook

Hi Steve, Yeah, the Facebook version of Fedora Lounge is okay but doesn't have as many regulars like here.

Nice hat, Ken. It’s good to see you in these parts.

As for the “spam ads,” do you had an ad blocker? I followed the recommendation from Jim @Frunobulax and I haven’t seen a single ad since then.

You 6 7/8 guys are cheaters.

Nahh. It’s like the lighter weight fighters in combat sports. Sure the smaller guys wow the crowd with some flashy moves. But it’s the heavyweights that bring the house.

You 6 7/8 guys are cheaters.

I beat the heat and was able to wear my new-to-me Wormser this morning for a few chores.

I’ll post more in the Wormser thread once I get better photos, but thanks to fellow lounger @vincent stuart for a very classy addition to my collection.

This elderly fedora traveled all the way from British Columbia to get back to home turf. We’re only 100 miles from Chattanooga here.

Could it be that, like a salmon, it has returned to spawn more Wormsers?

There was a fall-like briskness to the air this morning as I sat on the deck enjoying my coffee in my new 100 year old Bowler. I think I could get used to the style of the Bowler.

Looks good on you Simeon

[The Lost Cowboy]

Is it me or is the Lounge incredibly slow for others this morning? I am curious if it’s the site or my provider.

Looks good on you Simeon

Thanks Joe!

That's why I needed Ignacio,

It's time to get the linen and straw out and about. This Royal Stetson montecristi is not fine but it's a dandy. Included is a close look at that late 1930s bifurcated logo... a somewhat odd and complicated design that always puzzles me a bit.
