Mine was sitting on the porch when I arrived home Sunday afternoon. I ordered a 300 wpi and I can tell you it's a nice looking hat. The weave is a lot tighter than I expected it to be. There was a problem though....I ordered it too small, so I have it boxed up to send back to Robert for a...
I got an e-mail! My hat's in the mail! And wouldn't ya know it...I'm out of town this weekend and the hat will probably be here[huh] . Ain't that the way it goes?
Art, that really is a great looking lid. I love the silverbelly. It's also good to put a face with your name. I'll be contacting you for mine one of these days, maybe one like that one.
I've had a Panama on order from Bob for more than two months now and haven't received it. He posted in another thread that I read a week or so ago that he was having some trouble due to bad weather in Ecuador and due to some dificulties with competition there. I hope to see my hat before much...
I found a good hat size measuring device at www.panamahatsdirect.com. Check out the hat sizing page and print the pdf file there. Be sure and follow the directions there for correct printing.
Nice hat! I'm waiting for my first Panama Bob hat to arrive. It's been more than four weeks, and I check the front door for a box every day. Bob's web site says don't order if you can't wait, but guess it's ok to order if you can hardly wait, which is what I did and I can...hardly wait, this is. :)
Here's another place...www.panamahatsdirect.com. I haven't bought one from here, but I have seen this site recommended in the lounge. Actually, I have one of Panama Bob's hats ordered and am expecting it any day now.
Optimo hats...
I am curious about Optimo hats. I have read about them several times here at the lounge, but I haven't seen them come up in any of my searches for fedoras. Can anyone direct me to a website that sells them? Thanks, Bob.
I did it!
I ordered my first Akubra just a few minutes ago! I ordered a moonstone gray Stylemaster from everythingaustralian.com and requested it with a black ribbon. I had seen one on another thread here and especially liked it wth a black ribbon. Now all I have to do is wait three months for it.
HI, Scotty. Check around some of the threads here and you'll find that a lot of these folks are wearing Panama Bob's hats. I have one ordered and have been checking the front door every day anxiously waiting for it to arrive. For the money you're willing to spend you will be able to get a pretty...
MrF, that is a great looking hat! Congratulations! And thanks for the great post and pics...one of the best I've seen here. I definitely see a work of Art in my future.
Bob
Thank you, Benny, for the picture. I saw the moonstone gray in another thread and it appears to be a little lighter that your mid gray....not very much though. You must really like the Stylemaster, and I must say you do look good in them. The mid gray may be what I'm after. Again, thanks. Bob
