Kilo, I believe your post was something bordering "the voice of reason," and as such is to be commended. However, this is the hat section on a site called The Fedora Lounge lol
Which brings up another question. At one point in time the Stetson 100 cost $100. At some point in time, the Stetson 100 broke free of the $100 price and became more of a quality designation. I guess I'm still puzzled by that picture in the Open Road thread of the $672 price with (100)...
That hat doesn't appear to be a panama, but looks to be creased in the optimo style with the brim upturned. It has a pugaree type ribbon which could be easily done on a panama. I'd probably go in that direction if it were my hat.
Tooch, I checked out the pictures and it looks like it's in fantastic shape. I'm sure you're going to be very happy with that hat! And what a great price for a nice, old vintage lid...
Dave E, that hat suits you well. You can almost pass for one of the hipster crowd as it's not too tall of a crown and has some taper. You wear it well. You really DO need a brown lid. (And putty, and moonstone, and gray, etc., etc...)
Nice Open Road treatise, Jimmy. I'm curious about the price marked on that tag. It looks like it says $672.00 (I can't really make out the numbers with certainty) and then in parentheses (100.00.) What do you make of that? Is it Canadian or some other country?
No idea if thin felt is a common Whippet attribute, but those are both great hats, Michaelshane. The brown one does look very soft. It looks like it will take any crease with ease.
Woody, you'll find some discussion of gastronomic delights in The Connoisseur section of The Fedora Lounge. You'll also wade through some of the other finer things in life, like cigars, pipes, booze, beer, etc. Give it a gander...
