Here's a chance for a Resistol Kitten! I purchased this one from the 'Bay back in July. While it fits my 21.75" head fine, and I love Resistols and the kitten finish, I already have several olive-shade lids and have come to prefer thin and narrow ribbons. This Size 7 is olive green with a darker green ribbon and a Cavanagh edge to its 2.5" brim. It's in top-notch condition -- even the "Kitten Finish" logo on the sweat is still picked out in gold. It came to me in open-crown form, and I haven't even creased it. $75 USD plus shipping, CONUS, PayPal.

And it comes with the buckle-strap Resistol box:

Hey, Jonny,

It might be a hair, and I mean a hair, large. I put it on without creasing it, and it felt just a tiny bit loose -- but then, you know how creasing a hat can change its fit. Both of my Akubra Federations were like that, and once I put in the diamond crease and front pinch, they fitted well. I'd think that a little foam under the sweatband of this one would make it a secure 7.

I'll take another pic showing the size tag, if you need it.

I would love to pick this one up, although right now isn't the best time for me, personally. If it's available in January (and I'm sure you want to get it sold now) then I will more than likely jump on it.
