Northwest Hats, Eugene, Ore.

[Bill Hughes]

Just received this from Mike Miller (Northwest Hats). I acquired the semi-calado Montecristi from Brent aka @deadlyhandsome last year. I had Brent ship it directly to Mike with a duplex in mind. Have to admit my wife picked the ribbon. She grabbed a half dozen shirts (mostly Hawaiian) from the closet and requested a lighter blue ribbon. Her idea is a more casual hat with Hawaiian shirts. That's all good but I plan on wearing it this Sunday morning for worship services.

Specs:
Felt: bone color
Ribbon: 1" light blue with mauve stripes
Crown: 4 1/4" front, 4" back, telescope
Brim: 3" with a pencil curl

Where have you been hiding out, David? I was worried that the locals had given you the Captain Cook treatment.

I dropped in to visit with Mike last week and spied a Panama, Optimo style that I have my eye on. The stock one was not in my size but I see commissioning one before next sun season.

I look forward to your collaborations with Mike. This hat does not dissapoint - it is magnificent in details and execution. Grand ribbon addition to your fine straw fedora collection sir.

Always enjoyable to see your hat collection. Cheers, Eric -

Mike is the man, just saying. He's done three Westerns for me, and I'm sure I'll end up ordering more. In fact, the first one I ever ordered to spec he ended up liking so much he put it as an available model on his site. It's the Jackson model. I'll try to post pics of the others when I get a chance.
