My first custom hat from Mike. Sahara rabbit with Kangaroo ribbon. His work is truly first rate, with better ribbon stitching than on any of my other hats, and if the Winchester felt isn't quite up there with the very best of vintage hats, it's better than many, and Mike's pouncing makes it...
HB3 - great looking Stetson.
Miami - nice Whippet, and you can have congrats a few days early :)
Sam - the rake looks good, would be impossible with the original bound edge I'd think.
alan - wonderful cap.
Che & Mike - great hats, great photos, great outfits, and I'm envious of your day out...

Javier - nice Homburg. I like the crease.
Garrett - Happy Birthday. Glad we got a photo of the birthday hat rather than the birthday suit :D Fantastic hat.
Michael - nice looking Borso - the shades hide the lack of sleep well :)
Harv - lovely Whippet
Terry - if you covered my patch I...
Daniele - if you get to the museum please try and take some pictures. I bought a couple of Panizzas from RMR earlier this year and they're beautiful hats.
