It has been cloudy and grey for a while here so I dressed for the occasion.
50s Borsalino Savoy Grey Bismuto.

jonesy86, nice hat. How do you date the hat? I just wonder if the liners give a hint?
Oh yeah there is all kinds of information under the sweat band, the liner, the label, the color name, secret coding that only some guy in Verona can decipher. Ya got me. I just trust what I am told by guys on this forum. The guy who sold me the hat knew a whole lot more about hats than I will ever know.

We gave our new hats a run in the evening for Italian seafood. Etsuko in a wool cloche…

Excellent food. Not so the wine, but not terrible. View attachment 386963

It looks like you guys had a wonderful night out. The Crosby bowler is smashing, but that Mogal is an absolute show stopper!

Did the “Zoo Lights” at the Children’s Zoo here with my daughter. First snow of the year (odd for someone like me from South Dakota). But either way, Stetson Bozeman being a good little beater.

(She quickly developed a fondness for catching snowflakes. Just turned 3 in October.)

You wear them all well, Gary, but that bowler looks fantastic. It’s not a style I’ve been able to get comfortable under, but it looks great on you.

Thanks, Brent. I was pretty nervous about getting the bowler, but it seems to work ok. The kind words from you and other loungers do wonders for the confidence! Not sure I need a second one, though…o_O…although the brown bowlers do appeal…don’t tell my wife!

No low & slow today, it was all hot and fast.
Pork tenderloin with lots of herbs…

Sous vide sausages seared over charcoal - for me, hands down the best way to do sausages…

…and my take on Buffalo wings. I’ve never actually had Buffalo wings. I adapted a recipe from the internet - the sauce is made with my homemade sauce of fermented habaneros, onions and garlic mixed with a store bought red jalapeño sauce, honey and butter. No idea how “Buffalo” it was, but it was damn good!

Fabulous, David. The Savoy is one of Borsalino's best models.

I think it looks great on you, Gary. Its previous owner was blown away when I told him his bowler now resides in Japan and gets regular wear. Wonderful photos (and food!).
