Hey everyone! I've been Marie Kondo-ing the place recently, and have a few hats that never get worn because I'm into high crowns these days. Take a look below and let me know if you're interested. Located in Los Angeles if anyone wants a local exchange. Feel free to make offers as well, especially if you want multiple hats.
Optimo, lightweight felt, 7 1/2+
Purchased many many years ago from FL user Rundquist, this is a great lightweight easy to shape felt, and fits like a slightly large 7 1/2. (I think Optimo calls this 7 1/2 + 1/16). Crown measures 4.25" as bashed, 2.25" brim. Asking $250 OBO.
Stetson Custom V, refurb by Black Sheep
Great vintage Stetson. Original liner intact, has a new sweatband but the original is included. Size is a snug 7 1/2. My head is just under 23.5" around right now with short hair and it slips right on, though it's partly because of my extra long oval head- your mileage may vary! Crown measures 4.5", brim 2.25". Asking $80.
Dobbs Milan Duplex, 7 1/2
Finally, a Dobbs Milan hat which was also refurbed by Bob at Black Sheep Hatworks. Originally it had a very stingy brim so I had this converted to a duplex for more sun protection. The felt brim is rabbit I believe. Despite trying, I realise that duplexes are not my thing, so it's up for sale. It has a ribbon now, but the original pug is included. Crown measures about 4.6", brim is 2.5". Asking $100.
Thanks for looking!
