How about a new Excellent Quality Whippet, it seems like they are really focusing on the western style fedoras with the thin ribbon, Premier Strat, Open Road, now this one, I would like to see a Whippet and Playboy remake at some point, those may be in the works I just have not heard of anything.

Well fellow Loungers. Stetson will be at a trade show in New York this month and Mr. DelMonico is attending and placing an order while at the show. So if you place your order with us before 5:00 PM on Saturday the 18th of January we will guarantee you an Excellent Quality Open Crown Stetson hat in your choice of Black, Caribou, Cordova (brown) or Sage sizes from 6 ⅞ to 7 7/8 . The cost is $305.00. As a special offer to all our Fedora Lounge friends we will put your initials in gold leaf on the sweatband at no extra cost. However once personalized we can not take back the hat. We will be ordering more for stock but act now to hold you hat. Delivery to us should be around six to eight weeks from the time we order at the show on the 19th of January.

Stetson does not have any blocks over a size 8 for dress hats . I wish they did.
Hatco will also be releasing a collection of Dobbs Excellent quality hats as well. I think this season will one of the best for Hatco. They finally found the right help for improving their quality and image.

There are more 8+ heads out there than you think. Biltmore (Canada) had an 8 1/4 block but I don't know what happened to it when the factory moved to Texas. Mayser also had a size 66 block but again where it is ,I don't know.

It would be nice if the linings were sewn into the hat as they were back in the 1940's!!!
Or maybe a Stetson Selve(Cav) edge hat too....

It wouldn't make sense for Hatco to sew linings in these hats though. They are taking the time and effort to sand the inside of the crowns to the same finish as the outside. By not sewing in the linings, it gives people the ability to take them out (on hot days). The lining on my Excellent Quality has plenty of body to stay in the hat perfectly without being permanently attached. JMHO
