The Journeyman arrived but I was out of town on business. Had to do somethings yesterday around the ranch so here are the photos today.

As it came from Art, dark leather hatband & 2 7/8" raw edge brim, diamond crease....

With a Mossy Oak Breakup hatband I found at local western shop for serious wood duties on the way....

gtdean, what about some liner/ sweatband pics? Please? :D

Please excuse the Off Topic here, folks, but I have to ask.....:p
Rabbit, what is that turntable in the pics?

Dunno, it's not mine. Can't tell from the pics either.
None of the Sunset pics are mine, I just re-posted them on seabass's request.

No problem-o, seabass.



Indeed, the Sunset felt does have peachy tones.

Here's Art's original post from when the color came out:

The VS Sunset felt was made after a vintage hat from Andykev, which you can see here:

Note that the color of this particular hat is not identical to the VS Sunset.
Rabbit wow you are amazing..... we have to put you on the payroll !
Art did talk to me about this color but with its orgins as a Portis make it a cooler history. Portis had the coolest colors & crazy ribbons.
Art & I talked about Portis hats when he had visited me, I know he is a big fan of Portis,,, Thank you for all your research !
& To Art for putting hat history on our heads.... Gracias a todos. seabass aka che

Another VS Sunset

I had been waiting to get a photo with the hat on, but it has been over two months and that hasn't happened yet.

So here goes:

The tablecloth on the bottom is white (for colour comparison)

And here is the (subdued, at my request) bow:

The hat has an underwelted brim.

Thanks!
I had asked for a hat that I could wear around the summer period (before and after), when I still want to wear a light-coloured hat but do not trust the rain enough to risk a good straw. Art came through wonderfully!
