I agree completely. One of the few advantages of reaching a certain age (for me it was around 45) is not giving a rat's rear-end what others think about me/my opinions/my attire. Don't get me wrong: I still try to be civil and polite; but I'm not as self-conscious as I used to be.
Fed: I think you would be pleased with anything your ordered from Mr. Gannon. I do think the ones he created for Rodolfo (aka Chamuco) and me turned out extremely well, although there are many others posted here that are just a nice.
As for the specs: mine is a 5 1/2" open crown height, 2 5/8"...
I'm a rank amateur in the bashing department, but thanks for your comments. Bashing is not rocket science, but it does take a little practice: You should check out the Monster Bash thread--it's full of good stuff. About 8 months ago, when I realized that I had became a hat addict, I bit the...
Gannon #3 arrived Friday. Steamed a bash into it and wore it to the pub that night and around town most of Saturday. This one might be favorite yet. Although I'm still very fond of my whiskey (the hat, as well as the beverage) and dark moss, this one seems to be pounced finer than the others...

O’Toole looked the priest in the eye and said...
Rodolfo: I also think you made the right choice. I think the burgundy looks good indoors and out. And, hey: the ribbon is one of the easiest things to change if you decide you don't like it.
Thanks. But I was expecting either you or Bob to pursue my comment about champagne altering my color perception. You guys must be slipping. :)
I think Michael may be a little behind on his orders; of course, it doesn't help when jackasses like me make alterations at the 11th hour. But I...
My third Gannon ready to ship. Ended up going with a medium brown ribbon after a last minute revelation that the champagne was taking on unexpected hues. Without going into details, Michael Gannon went above and beyond the call of customer service to make sure I got what I wanted. If you...
Just purchased this beauty from Rabbit: Blue smoke beaver with a 2" navy ribbon and 2 3/8" brim.
I never would have considered the blue smoke as a custom order; but I gotta tell you, it is one luscious color: Mostly a light gray with just a hint of blue! The colors of the hat in photo are...
