Love the profile on that SLS, John. High and straight.

Yeah, I know you think I just contradicted myself, but I mean the hat, not you!


Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Very fine hat by the other Stetson, John.
Thanks for the like; the Dobbs manages to hold its own amidst the massive firepower unleashed by Alan and Bowen.
Stefan you are underselling the power of the Gamebird!! It inflated the heck outta me when i saw it. To me it is one of the nicest examples on the lounge. There are a couple others but your’s sparkles in the sun and is black. Wish i had one!!
Thanks for the kind words as well my friend.

You really scored with that one, Michael.
I'll agree, Stefan. And I even got it at a slight discount from list, probably because it lacks a wind trolly. Ha ha.

Most excellent, Michael. That hat is your second best I think; great colours. The suit looks great too.
Thanks again, Stefan. It's a contender for second, but it's also a tough call, for me at least. I just ran across the suit yesterday when I was rearranging my closet. I really like the fabric.

It garnered a couple of positive comments while i was out bicycling around town this afternoon.

Well, after Alan and Bowen I feel kind of deflated, but here they are anyway.

Both excellent hats, but there is something about that Gamebird. Two great looks in any case.

Thanks,
Michael

Today....I’m posting up this 5 minute old “Untouchable” hat for all, but especially for our Gentleman Giant, Mike, @Redfokker, who knows how much i’ve loved his “Untouchable” Angora. Red, thinkin of you with this one!

Now...if Only i could get me some Church Ladies!!!
Sorry for the poor photos, ugly day and just couldn’t wait.
Be well my friends. Bowen

You need to feed that hat and let it grow a few sizes ;)
It’s a stunner.

Beware of the Church ladies, or for that matter any ladies. They make hats and jackets look cheap.

I hate to hear about the fire, but very glad to hear that everyone is okay! Kitchen fires grow rapidly and are very dangerous, so the important part is that everyone is well. Dealing with the mess is a nightmare, but that is secondary.

The Indy looks like a great casual hat.

Best wishes,
Regan
Yes they are. My daughter did the smart thing and got everybody out. She also met the firefighters and directed them to the easiest way to get to the fire. Was told by the squad leader that this definitely saved more damage.
I really don't like to overdress the hat I'm wearing. I overpaid, but it's been a learning experience.

Had a heck of a weekend, my daughter burned her kitchen of her apartment, which I own. Completely destroyed, all kids and animals lived, including the bird which was in the kitchen for about 30 minutes, should be dead, just amazing. we got the recovery company in already, so hopefully she won't be at my house for long.

Glad to hear everyone is alright. Enjoy the time with her at your house.

Morning at work and an afternoon lunch meeting in a vintage Stetson Scoop. This hat has dynamite felt and appointments.

Forecasted weather has me wearing a cap for the afternoon and evening.
Best, Eric -

Best, Eric -
I just love the name of this Stetson model. I just cries for a "Press" pass stuck in the ribbon! The Daily Planet!

Faux Mink (visone), I think... but a nice old Borso nonetheless.
Truly a blue beauty Alan. I noticed this one this morning on FB. Good to see it again. Love that ribbon!!

Wow oh Wow Bowen! That color is superb, Agata is a new one. The translation is Agate, which is appropriate for this tone. You have a winner, my church ladies would approve, you will have to send it to me so they can see it though.;):D:D

No need to be deflated, these are excellent presentations. That Game Bird is really nice.

That SLS just rules!

My first. Indiana Jones, not the best hat but I like to wear it when I go casual. Had a heck of a weekend, my daughter burned her kitchen of her apartment, which I own. Completely destroyed, all kids and animals lived, including the bird which was in the kitchen for about 30 minutes, should be dead, just amazing. we got the recovery company in already, so hopefully she won't be at my house for long.

Sorry to hear about the disaster. Good that everyone is OK. That hat may pick up a smoky smell if you are not careful.

I've had three hats in rotation. My two Stetson Fredericks and a Selentino Sterling:

Nice Fred, good to see your daily hats.

After getting home from my bicycle trip I decided it was time to try out some of my favorite winter slouch around the shack clothes.

Dug them out of storage last week. The Marathon is new this winter though, and still auditioning for the part.

Have a good evening,

Very casual of you Michael. That porker kind of tops it all off.

I love the ribbon cording on this Champ. Such a great hat.

Very impressive Brent! Are you going to keep it like that or use it for a conversion?
