    Wide Brimmed Tweed Hat

    I wondered the very same. Yet, I was afraid it might get lost in the shuffle otherwise. I did not mean to breach some hitherto unknown proprietary territory nor violate an unwritten "suitability" standard for thread worthiness. :rolleyes: Please forgive me. I believed gaining insight on...

    Stretcher Just harpooned this 'un in th' 'bay. I've always wanted to see how well these work. The idea seems sound. I've more than a few needing a stretch & have high hopes. Does anyone else have one similar? Any tips? THANKS!

    Recent Caxton acquisition My FAVORITE SWEAT OF ALL TIME! I put a 1.25" leather Ranger/RCMP type band on this & can wear it as a taco :rolleyes: when in San Antone' & then snap the brim down all 'way 'round for the real world. I love it. One of the very few brims...

    FUR or Wool? What say you? Pulled the trigger on this hoping it would be an early Moose River i.e.- an LL Bean/Stetson...what do ya'll think? [huh] It LOOKS like fur felt, eh? - too finished & it is numerically sized, too fancy for a mere woolie... right? Right? :frusty: ...or...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Got this vintage Optimo Panama this a.m. Sports a wpi of about 500. Looks lovely, the lady insists that (after consult with our own Panama Bob) that it is NOT a Monti but a Cuenca, falsely stamped... could've fooled me. [huh]

    My new Open Road Hat

    I wear mine w/ the brim snapped down- always. Otherwise I look like Goober. Older ORs (and other similar styles- e.g.- Borsalino Alessandria ), without as much stiffener & finer felt than those of current manufacture, can be recreased daily as your mood dictates. I keep many of mine (the felts)...

    Dunno. Still awaiting delivery. My worry would be that it is a 3x but not a Stratoliner. I'd be P.O., to be sure.

    Me toooooo! Just this auction pic. This was the one described as a 3x Strat by the seller, engendering my previous question about such a beast. [huh] 'Cause I am a cheap :tape2: You gotta be like a shark- never still, cruise the listings as often as able, just for a few seconds each...
