Roger - looks great. I keep hoping Sam will do a Campdraft in another non-standard colour.
Charlie - Great to have the distinctive box. Lovely hat too.
Mystic - looks like it's got potential. One of my favourite vintage finds arrived flattened having been posted in a plastic bag... Thankfully it responded to steam and didn't even need re-blocking.
GoldenEraFan - I'm no expert, but I don't think the wind trolley precludes an older hat. I'd have guessed at 40's, but it's a guess... Nice looking hat anyway.
Wonderful photos g.d.
Alan - the hat looks great with that coat.
Thanks Seb - I think I'm going to order another in a different colour :)
Bert - nice stingy!
I've not tried their hats yet, but some of them do appear to be pure rabbit: http://sterkowski.com/fedora-hats/81-black-rabbit-felt-fedora.html. I don't know whether they make their own felt bodies or whether they're rebadged Tonak.
I know Manfred (Chepstow) bought one of their caps recently...
David - nice stetson even with the lack of caffeine.
Strapped - looks good.
Matt - nice shade of green.
Perry - very striking!
Sam - I love that hat.
ebonysw45 - that's another nice stingy.
Justin - looking very sharp.
Alan - two great shots, two great looking hats, two great looking daughters.
Dale - lovely hat, and a lovely shirt
g.d. - good to hear your car is okay
Your photoshop skills are much better than mine anyway :)
Aaron's right - lighting does change a hat's apparent colour considerably, but in any lighting I'd describe it as a more neutral tone. It's not really an olive, but it's not a real green...
Have you seen this...
I doubt there's any real difference in construction between bowlers made in the late 50's through to the early 70's anyway :)
I've had no luck identifying the maker from the tag on the auction example. It could be any of the UK makers still in existence at that point. The ribbon fray is very...
Without wishing to denigrate your photoshop skills, the Bluegrass green is a lot less 'green' in real life - I think in real life you'd like it a lot more :) Having said that, the Taupe Fawn does look good.
David - you get sympathy for working Boxing day and envy for the hat :)
Perry - That's a real beauty - always good to see a green hat.
Sam - probably my favourite amongst your great collection.
Joao - nice western
g.d. - great photo, and that VS is lovely
Aaron - Lovely whippet...
