The hat, I thought, was bespoke. So well constructed is it that I thought it was.
Not so.

The shirt's spearpoint collar gave Tina a few headaches but she got there.
It's getting another outing today, as is the hat. We have visitors at work,
one of whom often wears a hat, I shall look forward to seeing them.

The shirt collar was worth the effort. Looks great.

Foggy gloomy morning after the storms last night. Heading out in one of my favorite soft Stetson 3x. Crossing my fingers that today will allow a comparison..... Supposedly a new to me Borsalino arrives today! Competition of the soft hats?

Good morning. I wore a Stetson ******* during my dog soirée. This chocolate ******* has a unique ribbon treatment.

Coffee time under the brim of a carmel hued Stetson over welt.

The green ribbon compliments this felt.

The gold hued satin liner is stunning.

A thin ribbon "Classic Mallory" was my choice for a fedora picking up fallen limbs, twigs and detritus in advance of cutting the lawn.

I cut the lawn using my "tool hat." The Sunbody hat has been the go to hat for lawn efforts.

That certainly is a classic. What are the dimensions, if you know?
Jack I will check later tonight. I have it on a stack that includes some 40's-50's Stratoliners and it blends in. 5.5 " crown and 2.5" brim I am betting. I will check for details this evening. It has very light, malleable felt, akin to the unlined early *******s. The different edge treatment makes the hat wear differently than the *******s. When I wear a ******* for tasks I often come inside and see the brim and crown wonky from bumping into branches and the like.

More to come.
