What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[steur]

It's the perfect autumn day here for this late 20s/early 30s Samuel Mortlock and son Lord's hat. It's a real joy to wear.

Now there's a hat you don't see every day. Came in from Italy did it? Nice suit too, Steve.

Back under the new Sixteen Fifty for now. I gave it a bit of a steam and brush this morning.

Have a great Friday,

Yup, still looks good.

I tried to stay away from temptations, but the other day we were, Steve and I, in Merano by the current owners of the hats sold in the shop (now closed) "M. Hutter".

I did not bring enough money to buy hats, but then I suddenly became a sinner

Borsalino "Uranio" Qualità Extra Superiore. Size 6 1/2

The shapes and proportions are related to Italian hats made in the sixties

Felt is soft and very malleable. What I particularly like is the tone-on-tone ribbon that is, for me, the plus of this Borsalino

Happy Friday everyone
See you in the next days for the next sins

Sometimes you just have to save a hat. This one is certainly worth saving. I'll confess my sins later, brother Daniele!

Today it’s the blue Borsalino. I don’t have many true blue hats but this one is.
Be well. Bowen
Always thanks for the kind words.

It's so good seeing this one again, Bowen. Unique colour and the trusted Borsalino styling.

Thanks Stefan. It is indeed a superb, stand out hat just like the L'Hiver/Penumbra bowler I was able to purchase from you.

Don't touch that dial, Steve. There might be something on the horizon you might like.

I got this weeks' Dobbs memo a bit late and saw quite a few different game birds flying around. Here's mine.

Today was the Borsalino Nutria Opale

Thanks, Stefan. Yes indeed, it came in via Daniele via London originally.

There always is, Stefan, there always is. Just stop tempting me! Only kidding, please don't [emoji4]

Stefan, the hats, the suit jackets, the ties, the pocket squares, the coats, the scarves, (not to mention the beard), where to start my friend. Superb all the way round.

Hey folks!
I just found out from Lounger Peacoat over in the Outerwear section that my recently acquired 80's issue Jay Dee Sportswear peacoat is an uncommon Officer's version called a Reefer. So, in 80's fashion, I am mixing my Reefer with Coke.

And the Reefer

Now to go watch Miami Vice on a tube tv...
Have a great day!

Some hats just won't be tamed, John. Still looks good, though.

Thanks Stefan!

Thanks for the high praise, Steve. You're making me blush.
I recognized the Mortlock, because it started it's second life with me and was part of one of out hat-trades. I think it was too small for Daniele.
As a teaser, let's say I didn't just fall off the wagon, but the wagon landed upside down in a ditch... I'll take pictures of the debris tomorrow (good looking debris it is too).

Reefer and coke, eh? A winning combination I'd say.

Michael, I'm going to have to go shopping with you. Great finds again!

Thanks Steve. My shopping has been going downhill lately, but there are still some good days.

Nice find, Michael. Good colour and shape.

Yup, still looks good.

Thanks Stefan. I'm pretty happy with it.

Both great looks, but the Bird is the Word.

I like that hard felt and soft felt combo. But I think your Reefer is from a 1974 contract.

Thanks all,
Michael

This is a super nice Portis thin ribbon Strat clone I got from @moontheloon . A very nice grey tone with blue to violet tones in different light/shade. I'd say it's as good or better quality compared to my vintage Royal Deluxe Open Road.

This is the Portis Tissue-Lite with the Swansback Water Repellent "Cushion" Band.

I'd be satisfied with your downhill shopping days, Michael. They look good to me?
