Took a chance. I had thought there might be more intrest on this one.

Very interesting hat, that is. Looking forward to seeing more of that one in the future.

While looking at hatbox listings on OFAS, I stumbled across this Borsalino. It cost more than I hoped but may still be a good buy. I'll post more when it arrives.

Nearly unworn borsalino homburg in 7-1/4? Nice.

Thanks, Dinerman. If it's too small, I'll offer it to the Lounge. Meanwhile, I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed.

West & Co Hat

Just bought this West & Co hat from EBay. Anyone know anything about the company? Did they make good hats? It says 100% imported fur inside and is in great condition.

Just won a Stetson for a good price

Here is a link to a John B Stetson Silver Belly Hat I just won on eBay. I do not go for the Cowboy hat style and I will re-bash it in an Australian style but just had to have the hat because of the color. I think a pinch front C crease with the brim flattened out will give just the look I am after. Cheers

Even though I'm not a homburg guy, I put in a bid on this one. I didn't win it, but someone got a great nutria Borsalino homburg.

A beautiful 7x clear beaver stetson in a style I haven't seen before, with super wide brim binding. Even though it's a small size, someone got a hell of a deal.

I wish I had seen that one......

I won this 7 5/8 Stetson Twenty on OFAS a couple of days ago. Looking forward to having this one in my hands.

This appears to be a 7X version of the Stetson Vogue. I think that the Vogue is one of the all-time classic Stetson lids -- and to have a 7X version would be off the charts. Wow!

Cheers,

Hey, Carter! You know who to call if doesn't work out. And it ain't Ghostbusters!

It's unfortunate that the Xs outnumber the size.

I won this one...it is actually a dark gray..just looks brown from the pic....

Anyone have any idea what make it is? The crest says "Made by Master Craftsmen"..and I thought it was a Champ but it is different from the Champ Crest.

What makes you say it's grey? It looks Brown to me......[huh]


Nice one Carter......:eusa_clap

 

[lc1484]

It probably is brown once the flash hit for the picture...a very dark one...but in person, it looks like a dark charcoal gray

 

[GWD]

Carter, that liner looks very unique, I've never seen that one before.

 

[Levallois]

Got a boater/skimmer - finally!

Liked this one because it has a 3" brim and the older-looking thicker straw. Hopefully, it's as nice as it looks in the photo.
