Decade that was the peak of hat quality?
Moon I understand the general comment that the competition in the field was dwindling but the drop in quality has me at a loss. I’ll compare Ford Motor Company right now. They are basically getting out of the car business and are only going to make SUV’s and trucks. I can’t imagine that GM...- 1967Cougar390

Decade that was the peak of hat quality?
I’m not trying to be funny as I always like to learn. What exactly made the hats in the mid 50’s go to $#!t? Was it the craftsmanship, materials or both? Steven- 1967Cougar390

Ask a question, get an answer
I personally like the Ramsay without the feather and the brim snapped down in the front. To me those small changes and the crown make it a winner. Steven- 1967Cougar390

Scala hats?
I just wanted to share my experience with my first Scala hat. It’s a navy toyo straw with a 2 1/2” brim, 4 1/2” crown and an inline braid/weave band. I spent $25 on it and I’m well pleased with the hat. The quality is great and it looks well made (much better than I was expecting) and the fit...- 1967Cougar390

Post New Hats Here!
I received my $25 navy blue Scala straw hat today. 2 1/2” brim and a 4 1/2” crown.Overall all I’m pleased. It took a little shaping because the shipping took it’s toll on the box. The brim was very floppy but I gave it a light spray of starch and it firmed up nicely. Steven- 1967Cougar390

What was the last TV show you watched?
I watched Westworld Season 2 episode 4 Riddle of the Sphinx. I’m really enjoying this series on HBO. Great cast and stories in multiple timelines.

My wife snapped this picture of me and our two sons at lunch Sunday. The only thing that would have made lunch better is if our daughter wasn’t working and had been there. My hat is sitting in the booth next to my wife :). Steven- 1967Cougar390

Looking for hat information?
You received great advise in the previous posts. The only thing I can add it that once you buy a hat make room for more because like most of us you can't stop at just one. Welcome to the FL. Steven- 1967Cougar390
