The Morreton, love the colour Stefan, and the style. I am giving yesterday's hat another outing, it's just not quite bright or warm enough yet for the straw, but a cream coloured felt gives a good impression.

Thank you, Robert. Still a bit cold over here, but some sunshine today at least. It's getting to be time for some warmer days to show off the lighter felts and straws. You have a headstart there. Looking fine.

I've had numerous problems with my computer this week, and FL has been struggling to load, so I apologize for not following your comments and likes. Today, Sunday, everything seems to be working fine, and I'm back in the FL community.
For the occasion, I'm wearing a hat I traded with Stefan.

Kingson Imperial Quality, made in the UK

The hat has a distinct Stetson Whippet feel.

It's a specific product for a well-known J. Pul - Amsterdam hats shop, which has had hats branded with its name produced around Europe.

The hat is made of medium, malleable felt, and the trims are top-notch, as are the finishes.
I really like the color combination of the felt - Flannel Grey - and the ribbons, and its shape.

Despite my lack of involvement in FL life, I've seen many excellent hats these days, and hoping the computer problems are finally resolved, I wish you a happy Sunday.

Happy Sunday choosing time!!!! For me this week, I'm saying the Morreton as #1, the T&W Lees as #2, and the Laubin for Sools as #3. I'm also especially fond of that blue overcoat in the Laubin pic! Thank you for sharing, Stefan!

Sorry to hear about the computer woes, Daniele. Those can be SO annoying and frustrating. Nice to see you back, and with SUCH a gorgeous hat!

Thank you, Mark. The overcoat is vintage and quite heavy but nice and warm.

Echter Borsalino Export Qualität "Qualità Superiore" "Cescosca" "Palladio", date stamped 3/19/59. The "Palladio" Felt color is fantastic. and the very pliable Felt has a great hand. The "Export Qualität" designation was added in the mid 1950. I found this Soft Felt back around 2010.
