Looking into the future toward the summer
I have two milans from Art; they're great! I also have a Biltmore milan which is of surprisingly good quality. The milan is very close to the quality of my vintage milans, it has a very natural feel to it, as opposed to modern Dobbs/Stetson milans which feel more like plastic: -
The Green Machine
I bought the Flechet NOS from a hat shop about seven years ago. The felt really changes color depending on the light source and it has a quality feel to it. -

Post New Hats Here!
I received this new Bluegrass Green Campdraft a couple of days ago from Everything Austrailian: They had it in stock and the shipping was super-fast (Australia to France). The color is unusual, but very nice. It really looks different in daylight than it does under electric lights... -

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Thanks for the compliments, everyone! jwalls, that three inch brim doesn't look as extreme as I'd have thought it would. Got any photos from different a different angle? -
