With an assist and some direction from Redfokker I have my first hat from Mike at NW Hats on order. Its his "Perfectly Simple" design in Silverbelly. Can't wait. Trying to put together a good collection/rotation of hats. Never too late to start I suppose... :)
Wow what a specimen, that hat is fantastic!
I just looked at their website and their prices are quite impressive as well! Only $250 for a 100% Beaver felt hat. I like their "perfectly simple" model that is listed.
So do I. All my hats are center creased and I'm excited to get my first C crown. Hopefully I can get mine to turn out close to as good as the one in the photo.
You have some great looking hats on the way sir! My lips are sealed I promise I won't tell! Lol. I am in the same boat with my wife. Heaven forbid I died and she sold my guns, hats, and other collectibles for what I "told" her I paid for them ;)
I searched the web trying to find a photo and I believe it is this ribbon in this photo. The photo is sourced from delmonico so I am 99% sure our hats should look like this one.
Thank you for the tips! This will be my first time shaping a hat from scratch so I will be scouring the bash thread on your recommendation.
I think a diamond crease would look awesome as well! Hopefully that works for you.
I was considering trying to do a "C Crown" for this hat. I will attach photos of the style I am going to try and pay homage to. What were you thinking of doing with yours Bob?
That is so funny you should say that as I was just thinking about the exact same thing! I live all the way out here in Idaho so I would think you would probably get yours first. :)
I have always believed in the same thing as you sir and that it will all come around in the end :) It just felt like the right thing to do and would make for a special memory. Well I am damn glad to hear its infectious :) You are a good man
