gulp...not at this time IC. In fact, they were throwing the possibility out that we might be able to do any more felts that light. Apparently the failure rate of felts that thin is several times normal so they don't make a profit on them. Since I REALLY want them to stay in biz I have mixed feelings.

OOohh, Glad to hear this finally came to fruition! (I'm the one that's been emailing you about the ox blood...I didn't wanna spill the beans on here).

Can't wait to place my order!

It took a while jlee, but they came through for me. The best part is that I now own the formula that was derived to make them so, I'm the only one that has it and will stay that way for 2 yrs. Way cool...

Even better is that they have agreed to more exclusive colors for me so we are already at the mixing board for new colors.

Art,

So ...the oxblood is out. Finally. Is it done in beaver? I am sure that your Hall of Fame will be soon filled with enthusiasts wearing them!

What sort of colors Art? I'm probably (Finally) getting a VS for my 50th in Nov.

Now I'm torn between these Ox Bloods, or maybe something more exclusive. :eusa_doh:

VS Oxblood

Here is probably the best hat pic from my (not Led) Zeppelin tour of LA a few weeks ago

The color came through extremely well! (Not to bring up the color shade disagreement from before) Is that an Art Fawcett? (I think you were one of the first to get the color from him, right?)

By the way, 500th post! I spend way too much time here...

Cheers,

5.75 crown currently with a diamond crease
2.75 brim
And it now has a pewter Zeppelin pin on the bow to commemorate the ride.

It's pretty much a Goodfellow but without the dimensional brim
