Finished the bash on my new to me Portis stingy. Its quirky but I think it's perfect for this vintage stingy brim baby.

I finally got some sun today, but still didn't get the best of photos of my new Portis

Super Lux grade, but I have no idea where that fit into their quality hierarchy.

I would be happy if anyone can put an age to it.

That hat is incredible. Love the ribbon and binding and such a perfect grey. [emoji1305]

I had missed this great hat in this thread, but it's just as gorgeous here as in the other thread, Michael.

Here's one I got from our member @Garrett (thanks, Garrett!), so it may have been posted here before (haven't checked). A lovely Portis Royal Quality in heather. Model is called "hunter". Size 7 fedora in a dark grey heather, with a nice ("swansback") hand and an awesome ribbon. Underwelt brim with lovely contrasting stitching sits at 5,5cm and the crown at 10cm at the center dent. The liner has seen better days, but how often do you come across one of these?

Portis thin ribbon circa early 50s from Yandt's of Missoula. Color is a muted cobalt, bound edge measures a healthy 2 5/8" and the felt is malleable. Appears to be NOS.

Yandt's Men's Wear underwent a fire in the early 40s

It has been posted here before, but I thought I'd do another one anyway. @Garrett was kind and generous enough to part with this one. Thanks again Garrett!
Its real colour was a bit hard to assess untill I unboxed it. It is truly spectacular.
Portis Supreme Quality in blue. Size 7, unlined with the bound brim at 7cm and the crown at 11cm at the center dent. Lightweight hat it is as well with just 92 grams. It doesn't get much better than this.

A wonderful beautiful hat Stefan. That color makes it such a rare beauty. I’ve enjoyed watching this one go through that bidding war and Then end up going to you through Garrett. Congratulations

Thanks, Joe. Blue hats are not all that common and to find one in this special hue is a real treat.
