Alan - that's a real beauty - crown height, brim shape, felt texture, felt colour - it's got it all
HistoryTeach - Nice family shot, and brim up works well.
g.d. - that Dusty Lane is a lovely hat
Howard - a true champ!
Thanks for the comments on the American Legend yesterday, coincidentally the sister hat (burgundy) arrived this morning. I wasn't at all impressed by the Beaver Brand, branded silverbelly hat but these American Legend branded ones aren't bad for modern production hats and cheaply fill gaps in my...
Manfred - great cap. Did it bring you Irish luck with the fleamarket raiding?
Andy - Lovely VS

Psugrad - looks good for winter

Manfred - the western...

Joao - the black hat works well with the shirt.
