Wow, all excellent but this Platin finish is something special!! You know what to do with the next 55ish that will appear, right?

Dog soirre in the "balmy 25'f weather. A thin ribbon VS (sage beaver) was my fedora choice.

A cup of coffee and some deck time wearing a Stagecoach. This fedora was "Designed and detailed by George Wally."

Perambulating in a Knapp-Felt. I turned around today to give Steve a view of the skyline instead of the temple.

And apparently Dayton was the site of a thermonuclear explosion during that last pic.

Nice hat ... hope it survived (and you too BTW).

Thanks for the great photos, Jim. Hope you survived the explosion.

Love the whole ensemble, Matt. I can almost feel that velour felt.

First time out this week in a hat. Thought I might have "you know what". Luckily, tests were negative, so it was just man-flu after all

Celebrated by taking a short walk in my Hückel Chevreau.

Love the whole ensemble, Matt. I can almost feel that velour felt.

Thank you, Steve. I'm assuming that despite the "whole ensemble"
you can almost "feel the velour" of the hat, and not the one on my upper lip!

Stefan, Great series of hats as usual but I especially like seeing the JHS "Platin". Definitely one the most special Velour finishes. Have no idea how they achieved that result.

Thank you, Steve.

Thanks, Panos. I think I can find a happy home for the next dozen or so I find!

Time to wear those velour hats right now, Matt.

I know that chevreau is so smooth the flu or any other unwanted bug slide right off it.

Carlos Santana $9 at Goodwill. Not sure what it is made of, doesn't say wool anywhere on it. No matter, it's perfect for a beater.

Hückel Novo Velour on a windy but sunny day.
Love the bow on this one.
