    Killick, I guess we need to add "de-cowboy" to the hat lexicon. Your conversion looks great on the inside. jhe888, when this happens: :flypig: ;) Yep, that's more like it Garrett. I'll add that the Tonak is a shade of blue that is both stunning and hard not to fondle. I am guilty.

    Sorry "fancy-dressers" are wasting Bob's time and keeping him from making hats for "serious use". Commissioning hats built to a standard far beyond that available from any factory product available today and wearing them daily as part of their life style against the tide of the main stream is...

    Real nice looking borsy HB3, especially like the contrasting wind trolley.

    OK Garrett, edited my post to reflect the facts not my failing memory ;) I just want to say Garrett's above pixs do no justice to his 7X refurbs actual color combo. It looks totally different in natural light. Che, the letters are pewter like, not sure if they are real or fake pewter but they...

    Thanks Manfred and Roger. I just found this link to a past classified here for the hat: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?68542-FS-FT-June-1931-Okinawan-Lateyou-71-year-old-unfinished-hat-body-capline! Garrett got it from Rick Blaine along with an astounding parabuntal body I...

    Solid Sunday posts fellas with a special tip of the hat to Michael's milan, have a soft spot for them. I donned my BSHW Resistol conversion for a trip to BSHW this afternoon: When I got home I donned the new Garrett Special I picked up there: More details of the Garrett Special here...

    Bob wasted another Sunday afternoon with Garrett and I but Garrett made sure he'll be employed for a while with plenty of new projects. Garrett also played pied-hatter and was giving away more hats to Bob and I. It's good to have Garrett around. This is what Bob did to a straw body Garrett gave...

    Nice scores Paddy, those with small noggins should be breaking your doors down. Steve, can't read the post card but guessing it translates into something like "Check hat this BITCH'N new hat!" ;)

    Hawaiian Shirts - Aloha Shirts

    Some off season pick ups, still too early to wear though. First, the classic palaka with coconut buttons. For some reason very hard to find on-line, at least in my size and in blue. I imagine they would be everywhere on the islands. Thanks to fellow Lounger maduro5 for the line on this one...

    Very cool Keith. You need to make your friend a cap to keep the locks in place. Proper MG too. Glad it's boot down weather somewhere.

    Yes, and it will be worth your wait, the finish is spectacular. Like I said, I probably shouldn't have mentioned it. I think Bob is waiting for supplies to finish his hat boxes so don't look for the mailman. Sure Bob will let you know when it ships.

    A belated congrats Blackthorn. I probably shouldn't mention this but I saw a very black hat with your name on it at BSHW :)
