    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Nope, this hat is a 7 3/8 and it's a little too big for me. I'm closer to a 7 1/4 and a bit of a long oval. Art told me I'm an egg oval. I wonder if he meant egg head? lol I'm sure Art can fix you up though.

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    I have an Art blocked panama that I bought from Robert and didn't like the block. I asked Art to reblock it, replace the ribbon and shorten the brim which he graciously accepted. It started out like this: and Art changed it to this: You might call Art to ask if he has any...

    Panama Hats direct?

    Ralph, I bought this semi-colado from Panama Bob, and we sent it to Gus Miller to block. I don't know what the weave count would be if it were closed, perhaps Robert can elaborate on that. I think it makes a fine looking panama, and it's a pleasure to wear. Gus even included two ribbons with it.

    Akubra Value is Soaring Right Now

    I got an order confirmation e-mail from Hatsdirect on the 11th. When I ordered my Campdraft it took almost two weeks to get here. IC, you seem to get yours a lot faster than I do.

    Stetson Nostalgia vs. Akubra Federation IV

    I'm a big fan of the Feds and Akubra in general. I have one Fed Deluxe IV and a Campdraft and love them both. I also have another Fed Deluxe IV ordered...I couldn't resist the great prices now.

    Panamas from the weavers

    Interesting observation, Neil, but I have only bought and will only buy panamas from Panama Bob. I know him to be a straight shooter, and he is well respected here on the lounge.

    Stetson Nostalgia vs. Akubra Federation IV

    Sorry to hear about the die issue. The Nostalgia is a nice looking hat and would be even nicer with a wide brim binding, but I don't want dye running down my neck if I get caught in the rain. I'm glad you made that point, Larry. I probably won't buy one now. By the way, welcome to the lounge...

    Do you wear all your hats the same way?

    I wear my hats straight from side to side and usually from front to back though the front to back can vary, for example if I'm in a car with a high seatback and my hat hits it. That way the amount of snap in the front brim determines how low the hat actually looks.
