Optimo south side mobsters

[rlk]

Beautiful color and proportions.

Classic weight is the standard felt and finish as opposed to the lightweight and featherweight or the longhair or satin. 1000's are specialty felts.

The Classic Weight is akin to the vintage Premium felts such as the 15's(3X),20's and 40's- slightly thicker/heavier than the basic or lightweight models.

Thanx, I always get the names for the different weights confused.

Aureliano, I know you have a beautiful collection so I know you will create a beautiful hat. I look forward to seeing it.

Any teasers as to what exactly is baking? Colors, specs, anything?

 

[Aureliano]

Very first one, indeed!

Thanks, DRB!

Tall crown. It pairs well with guns.

You will love it. Those people are excellent to work with and turn out very nice lids.

I met Graham a couple of years ago, he's a great guy. My wife and I went to Chicago on vacation and I took a bus to get to the hat shop. Graham, being as busy as he was planning some remodeling, was nice enough not only to re-flange my non Optimo hat for free but also gave me a ride to the train station. You just don't forget those things. I didn't buy a hat at that time but told him I will be his costumer. Now I am. Tifanni is also pretty amazing herself.

I spoke with Tiffini a few minutes ago & she said that they aree full up thru the end of Febuary

Yeah, My hat is due to ship on January 30th.

I will surmise that you have chosen the new Tungsten satin finish, not that I am biased in any way

Look forward to seeing your new hat. It will be a very special one for you without doubt.

 

[DRB]

What did you get? So, what color and style? Or are you going to keep us in suspense?

Not the Tungsten. It's a 2010 color but not as recent. Style... 5 1/2 crown. And I'll say no more!. If I have to wait for it guys, you better wait with me! :eeek:

 

[Tomasso]

I'll wait....

A picture is worth a thousand words........

 

[Chinaski]

That will give us all something to shake off the post-holiday blues. Can't wait to see it Aureliano, and let's see...I'll bet we see it in the new hats thread, what hat are you wearing today thread, south-side mobsters, etc...

 

[DRB]

Aureliano : you are such a tease. OK, I'll wait too.

Yes, it will be everywhere!

Just a little... It's nothing grandiose, I'll tell you that. More of a classic in a cool color.

Anyone have a pic of an Optimo in the Canyon Grey color? I'm just wondering what it looks like in person. Looks to be neutral with hints of brown and even purple on their site.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Still no new site...
