I love that color. The next time I get to Ecuador, I'll try to sneak some photos in the warehouses...there are some old, old hats there, but not camera friendly owners.

I have seen several like it, labeled as genuine bankaru.GWD said:It's still very pliable and seems well made, definitely not a Montecristi!

So this old friend's back out in the sun. That's OK, I'll live ...

After wearing my new Monti every day for the last couple of months ... it seams to be getting darker in color ... more of the aged ivory look ..... which I really dig!!! Is this my imagination??? If not ... why does this happen??? Is it just like paper when it oxidizes it yellows in the sun??
WineGuy said:Is it turning ivory all over in an even manner or is is it changing color in certain areas like the top of the crown? Mine started to take on a light toast mostly on the top of the teardrop bash. Not sure if its from sun or sweat or both.
Kkaderly said:Is yours changeing enough on top of the crown to give it a hint of two tone look??? That would be cool!!!!!
