Optimo south side mobsters

[rlk]

Robert -- I don't see that felt on Optimo's website. Is it generally available?

They haven't updated the website with the colors that were new this fall(2011 colors). The website design is supposed to change as well. Last projected date for completion was Thanksgiving--not sure they will make it.
The Tungsten, Indigo, Silver Beaver, Sage and Camel were also new. There's a Cognac and a Deep Green in the long-hair Velours too.

How extensive are the changes supposed to be? New pictures, or an entirely different set up?

I believe both.

I spoke with Graham this afternoon when I dropped off my Ink porkpie to be cleaned & blocked. He said in regards to the new website that since they have so many orders, it would be pointless to put it up. They have so many hats on order that if you ordered one, it would not be ready until January 22nd. He said the the new site is done, he just hasn't put it up yet.

That sure is beautiful! Congratulations, you have a winner.

Exquisite, Lexybeast! I really like the tall, untapered crown, and the accent stripe in the bow, ala Art Fawcett.

Wow that is really fantastic! Navy or dark blue is favorite of mine. Also these new Optimo felts are great!

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Hey Lexy, is that one of their smooth finishes?

 

[Lexybeast]

Thanks everyone! Bruce, it's a classic weight with a regular finish. (Not sure if that = smooth finish.)

Be sure to post that in the Blue Heaven thread ...

Classic weight, Does that mean it is one of the Optimo 1000s?

Wow, that is a beauty. Congrats, Lexy! That's one of the most beautiful lids I've seen for a while.

 

[Lexybeast]

zetwal, I didn't even know that thread existed! I'll be sure to post it.

Bruce, it's not one of the Optimo 1000s if I recall correctly. Those are the "premium" felts right? The ones that come in lava, natural, etc. Beautiful felts, but out of my price range for now.

BobC, thanks.

 

[zetwal]

It seems there is a thread for everything, Lexybeast.

The reason that I remembered that that one is out there is that I too like blue hats. And yours is lovely ...

Wow, that is a beauty. Congrats, Lexy! That's one of the most beautiful lids I've seen for a while.

[fluteplayer07]

Stunning!

 

[Chinaski]

Well allow me to pile on, because that is, indeed, a fantastic hat Lexy! I've noticed a few of your postings, and you have a great eye for picking really nice lids.
