Last night in Memphis Harp Player Gene and I were talking about our vintage Supernatural panamas.
These are really nice old hats that need a thread all their own.
So... Supernatural owners here is the place to post !

I've got a Supernatural but I need to send it to Optimo for some work. But I'm afraid because it's one of about 4 I need to send and it's going to cost me a fortune!

Honestly, I don't have anything to compare it to. But I do know that Panama hats are infinitely harder to work with than felt hats. Here are some before pictures.

I'm struggling as to leave it as an Optimo or change it to a Fedora style.

Why the dilemma? It's a beautiful Optimo.

 

[DOUGLAS]

Please leave it an Optimo

 

[Lefty]

I guess that, at this point, I'm sixthing the Optimo.

 

[GWD]

Okay, okay! lol

 

[RBH]

Yep... that is a sweet looking Optimo. I too vote with the others!

 

[duggap]

I am not sure how well you would get the center crease out of it. Best you leave it as is.

RBH, at this point all I have is a very nice Supernatural box, maybe one day, I will acquire the hat that will fill it.

Thanks RBH, It like many of my treasures came from my secret honey hole. I picked up a Christmas Stetson box just a few months back. This is the same place I found a Borso Alessandria, a couple of Mallory's, Resistol's and my Stratoliner.
