I received a new VS last night; it's a thin-ribbon in powder blue light-weight felt. The brim is 2 5/8" and it has a really neat gray sweatband. Thanks for the fantastic hat, Art!

That's a fine looking hat Jauntyone! The powder blue is mind blowing, in some photos it looks really blue, and in others very grey.

My new-to-me VS panama. The ribbon's deep blue goes well with my Benz, but doesn't show up well in the pic, dang it.

Lightweight for the Summer.....and beyond

Finally had a chance to snap a few photo's of my (not so) new Artlite. It's a couple of months old now and I'm still excited every time I wear it.

It's a Silvermist, which is a beautiful white/light grey/light blue - another of Arts beautiful colors. As far as the weight, I swear, if it was any lighter it would float away.

The ribbon treatment is 1 3/4 inch (19 Ligne) light grey with blue/green tones; the brim is a 2 3/4 inch underwelt, the crown wears a teardrop bash.

Shot shows the cute little "Tip Sticker", also shows some of the stich detail that normally is covered with a full lining.

And, last but not least, a 'resting' shot leaning against one of Arts hat blocks (to which I've added legs)

Hope you enjoy, I know I am. :D
