I just found an old picture of myself when I was about 20 pounds heavier. I don't miss the extra weight but I do miss that jacket.

A tip of my fedora your way, sir. Enjoy that pith helmet in good health. A pith helmet is proven to prevent melanoma of the head and neck. Ask any dermatologist who has read the literature.Bruyere_Royale wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 5:18 pm I call this one," Standing in the woods with a Pith helmet on smoking a Meerschaum pipe."

Nice Helmet . . . I actually have my Grandfather's Metal Pith Helmet, Fire Extinguisher and Gas Mask from WWI - WW2. Direct descendants from Germany had to be on Civil Defense to be monitored during war-times.Bruyere_Royale wrote: ↑Tue Mar 16, 2021 5:18 pm I call this one," Standing in the woods with a Pith helmet on smoking a Meerschaum pipe."

I always wanted one to be honest and I'm Filipino.... the link you posted was good timing. I've worn a straw Pork Pie or Fedora through the hot weather months for years and I think it's time to try something different. Plus the meers and the safari hats go hand in hand in my book. Lol
