So I snagged a toast, vented OR this afternoon--->
...nice, eh? Well the seller didn't ID it as Panama or shangtung, so I go looking for photos of the shangtung (less desirable imo) and find these;
and as you can see the hat is clearly labeled 'shangtung'... but the interior of my purchase...
SOLD
Prior to sending it back to this idiot I thought I would run it up the flagpole, It's a hella deal, Even though my limit is 2 3/8" I made an exception for this opportunity, too bad the seller doesn't know an 2 from an 8. PM me here, please.
TRADES ENCOURAGED!!!
NEW VINTAGE RESISTOL OPEN ROAD
Purchased from one of our frequent lurkers here. A darker shade of tan, almost light brown. Very pleased! Doggone nice hat! A keeper.
I was asked why I thought so highly of The Shady Oak from Peter Bros. I have a 100 w/ a full brim 3 1/8". I got what I reckon to be a pretty nice body, a forty. maybe sixty years old?. At this age, it is not a CB hat. It's a soft, malleable, 4" brim Western Dress hat. Far lighter and tighter...
Just roped this little beauty for two bits, right out of the gate, not bad fer a (idiotic) $225 retail lid!
Looks to have perfect proportions - 2.5" brim. I wonder how Orvis' "Grade 12" compares to Gamboa's and Brent Black's!
