Got home from work and put this Stetson lightweight on...
Fresh from Robert's recent hat listings! I gave it a good steaming and a little iron to add some stiffness back in to it. It still might go off for a blocking, though. Thanks, Robert!!
To all who are looking at these hats, don't pass up the one you want. I've hesitated on lots of hats lately, with regrets. Robert has a great collection of hats, and they're offered at great prices!
Hope you get what you want! :)
The Stetson lightweight fits great!! It was floppy out of the box, but I applied generous amounts of steam to firm it up a little. Will post pics soon.
Thanks again, Robert!! :thumb:
I would have guessed this was rarely worn, but I have reason to believe that it was actually caught in the rain. I was steaming it in my bathroom under bright direct lighting, and I noticed faint water spots on the top side of the hat. It was some interesting detective work, if I do say so...
I'm thinking original. The edge binding is a navy blue, so it's a noticeable contrast from the crown ribbon. This hat is incredible. FIFTEEN felt quality, and I wear a lot of blue, so it goes with just about everything I have! :cool:
Thanks, Alan! I'm starting to use your tilted profile...
Very new to me (just arrived in the mail), an ink blue Dobbs FIFTEEN homburg. The plum ribbon and blue binding treat this hat nicely. More pics to come soon in the Dobbs Diner...
