Just stopped by Optimo on Saturday.

Was picking up a Stetson I had the folks rehab.

I was on the way downtown for a political function wearing my new Borsalino.

Lefty, the green ribboned hat has a darker color straw. Do you think that is patina from ageing or just the color of the straw lot of the year?

More questions: What is the brim size? How many inches is the hat at the front of the crown?

I just ordered a milan yesterday, as you know, and I fear that I may have disturbed the balance of the nature of the hat. I asked that they take the crown down a little lower than their normal "low" crown. I am in a bit of a stir about it now, wondering if I did the right thing. Help me out with these answers if you could. A head shot would also bring some clarification to my dilemma, if you would be so kind and inclined. Of the two models displayed on their website, I chose "A".
