Could agree more about Tiffani and Optimo's customer service...absolutely amazing and I've already picked out my hat for summer, Montecristi teardrop with 2 1/8" brim in grade 25 with 12l navy ribbon. I received my first of many Optimo hats last week, a heirloom silverbelly Trilby with dark charcoal ribbon.

Bumping this thread for its wonderful photography & content. Optimo’s renovation of the old south side firehouse truly made for a working museum & hat factory.

And adding a couple of fine western fedoras from the Optimo Original West series.

Nice felts! Which felts did you choose? First one looks like "Silver cloud", on which I contemplated but chose another one that was more to my taste.

These along with several other fine hats & Big & Tall clothing came up at auction ( I presume it was an estate). But the lighter color of the two is probably Silver Cloud, sort of a silver pearl or gray oyster. The other is what I would describe as a medium charcoal color But don’t know the name.
