The last of this round

This is a Royal Stetson. It is a great color. It is in great shape,although it needs a cleaning. The felt is so smooth so rich it is like putty. I really like this model of Stetson. It is well made and the sweat is really niceand supple

.

This is the true color

[Dinerman]

Douglas, you have quite the eye.

 

[DOUGLAS]

Thanks gentlemen. Quite a hat for $10.00

This has a nice sweat treatment.

i'm sorry, 10 dollars. You gotta be kidding me. In your size? that's unbelievable. Surely not an eBay purchase . . .

Actually, i think i remember it, now i see the first picture you posted..

[Dinerman]

I've never seen that sweat treatment before. Is it folded over and sewn?

 

[DOUGLAS]

BK, The ORIGINAL price was 10.00. I did pay a fair price though and I am satisfied.
Yes Dinerman it is folded over and sewn from behind. It is a unique feature I have not seen before. I like these small details, it just adds to the hats quality.

Douglas that is a very fine hat and it looks great on you! Love the background as well - I grew up on fifth and used to walk my dogs along that side of the street...

Douglas,

Wow! That sure is one nice Stetson. The photos sure make it look fairly clean too. How dirty is it? Very nice looking indeed. I still say you have the Blarney Stone.

BTW, that winter shot is well photographed and framed. That would be a good 10x14 print.:eusa_clap

Cheers!

Thanks vonwotan, That pic was taken at 91st St. I love the east side of the Park for walking.
DJ it is'nt completely grimed out, it just needs a good brushing and some steam. The liner is in perfect condition and is the nicest satin to the touch in a great cream color.

[vonwotan]

Douglas - that really is a terrific new avatar. You are sporting all of my favourite items of clothing - peak lapels, bow tie and a wonderful fedora!

The suit fit much better when I was a bit heavier.I am not happy with the sleeve openings as they are too small to accomadate french cuffs. The tie is nice, Blue silk satin and the hat is a Royal Stetson in Black.
