Just got a Mint 1930's Stetson 20 Sovereign

[metropd]

I found a mid bluish grey mode edge (cavanaugh edge) Stetson Sovereign in mint condition. I am in SF in Fashion Design school right now and I picked it up at a vintage store in Haight Street. It is the best fitting fedora I have ever had. It's the only hat that looks better than my original Gus Miller fedora. I wear it every where.

The brim droops down, and is 2 5/8 inches wide. This in the best fedora I have ever owned! I will post pictures later in the day. It is one of the nicest hats on the lounge.

Yes look forward to seeing it - I have one myself with the same brim size I picked up earlier this year that was still open crown and it's become a regular wearer.

Would like to compare the liner and sweatband.

TTFN,

Bill

Congrats, Met' - on the schooling and the hat. Looking forward to it! My Mode Edge Sovereign has very, very soft felt. You must be pleased.

I thought you were in the Academy?

Sounds like a good catch, metropd! Can't wait to see the pics!

Why, this is most cruel, Metro. It's like ringing a bell around Pavlov's dog. We need pictures of this excellent purchase.

Let me guess...You bought the hat at La Rosa Vintage.

 

[Matt Deckard]

Awesome... Can't wait to see some pics. Nothing like vintage felt!

as nice as your outfits are, Metropd, I would like to see CLOSE UPS of the actual hat. This includes the liner.

 

[ScionPI2005]

Metro, that hat looks great! Definitely get us some close ups!

Ditto, I'd like to see what places this as 30's instead of 40's/50's

That hat is awesome! A great find! How much was it at the vintage store? I should search some vintage/Goodwill stores in my area more often.
