    Panama Hat Thread

    Here is the Montecristi Special Reserve from Panama Hats Direct that I have been waiting for. The blocking and sweatband are very good. I don't like the liner so I will be removing it (easy). My head is crooked and I cannot wear hats blocked by others and expect them to have the pinch line up...

    Jack, I sure do like this one, especially how it changes color. It's like having two different hats.

    Panama Hat Thread

    I'm not trying to upstage Pat's Brent Black, which is fantastic, but I thought I would add this hat to the thread. I hope to see more pictures of Pat's hat here when he gets time. Here are some pictures of an optimo I rescued from the E-bay. It fits well. My overall perception is that it is in...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Bill, that is a stunning hat. The sage color blends with the white straw. A union of two colors making one great hat. Can't wait to see you wear it. Beautiful, seriously. Get's my Hat Of The Week award :)

    I might be visiting my daughter and grandkids in St. Albans area soon. Waiting for the snow to melt. Having retired as a mailman in nearby Swanton, I don't miss the snow :)

    Yes, the underwelt is awesome. Most of my custom hats are underwelt. Looks regal on the top and the feel of the welt between your fingers is addictive. I always find myself caressing it. It should keep your brim nice and straight. I liked the hat when I saw it. When I read it was from Art, I...

    Robie: I think your choice of color will allow you to wear it with many other color of clothes. Very nice.

    Very nice Brent. I love the felt color, the flange of the brim, and the color of the ribbon compliments the hat.

    Max, I do like it. The suggestion to use it as wall art is a good one. Your suggestion of the White Russian is a better one.
