This is indeed a situation that might easily qualify for a prenuptial codicil. I am blessed with a wife who is both understanding and organized. I have my hats—most of them—in the boxes you see on the photos. Most of the boxes I believe are from the Container Store or BB&Beyond and have visible...
Greetings. I recognize this is an old thread but my Signes Beaver Fedora is new...purchased in Barcelona at Sombreria Obach about two weeks ago...I am loving it...it’s a fine hat...not custom but a very, very fine hat. Hope you bought it and are enjoying it.
Been a while since I posted but am back now...
My wife and I just returned from a trip to Spain and enjoyed everything there...including Sombreria Obach in Barcelona...old school, classic hat shop carrying many of the high quality European and American brands.
I have purchased hats from Art...
Great note. My buddy is a good friend. He prefers Powers or Redbreast Irish Whiskey (lotsa PotbStill) but drinks Pinot with dinner. Savannah is a beautiful city and welcomes you and other hat lovers. Come with your VS and/or Optimo straws.....suitable at least ten months of the year...the other...
I know this is an old thread; I've been on and off the Lounge myself these past few months. I am listing a Milan I received today from Art. I posted the same photo on the VS thread earlier today. The hat is beautiful. I also have a Biltmore cream colored porkpie Milan which is also quite fun...
Received my new Milan from Art today. Two wonderful exports from Oregon that are enjoyed here in the Hostess City of Savannah: Shea Cellars Shea Vineyard Pinot Noir and Art Fawcett Fedoras. Thanks Art and cheers to all.
Could not agree more with all posts. Optimo produces magnificent hats. What makes it so very special is Tiffani's most friendly and engaging customer service. We did a Skype fitting and the result is the Montecristi below. The hat is looking longingly to go outdoors but in Savannah we are in...
Agree.
Bought a great beaver felt grey fedora from FineVintageFedoras. Bond was a pleasure to work with, fair priced, and reliable in shipping. Good hunting.
Apologies for,sending the photos twice...just received Art Fawcett and Dave's restored Montecristi...if you compare the former photos with the new ones, you will see the difference. The ugly guy remains the same but the hat is much improved.
The hat is better than new...it is ready for my...
Thank you. Am pleased you appreciated it.
Another true one: "All I know about suspense and fear I owe to the Jesuits." Alfred Hitchcock
They also wore some good hats--birettas--back in the day.
Well said. Nearly all of the best teachers I had were Jesuits. They encouraged thought, settled for nothing less than your best, and educated with a wonderful combination of pressure and encouragement. One of my favorite stories, although I do not have the specifics of time and place is of the...
