That's great to see Roger! Glad to know my former "neighbor" has a good home.

Haven’t had much to contribute in this thread for quite awhile, but I acquired two hats this week. First, a grey Hanna Hats cap that I know will get a lot of wear, and second, a sweet little dressage topper.
The Johnny Depp Dead Man hat is one I’ve coveted for many years, and I finally realized its basically just an equestrian show hat. This one is in a beautiful dark navy with what I think is the “Melusine “ brushed finish. I’m happy about these!

My Agnoulita arrived today.

My first impressions on opening the box were:
1: it's smaller than I was expecting
2. It's a lighter in color than the photos depicted

It's always a bummer when the initial reaction is one of let down.

The brim is a little wonky, but I'm sure I can work out those wrinkles. The felt is surprisingly soft and very pliable. The felt is far superior to the D'aquino I just took delivery of. The ribbon and bow are quite nice. The liner is fine too. Now the sweat; it is shockingly nice. I love how soft and supple this goatskin sweat is. I wish more hats used this quality of sweat. I should back up and also note that the box it shipped in was very nice and reminiscent of days long gone. Strangely, there are no markings on the sweat and no size label either. The hat does seem to fit true to size or maybe just slightly on the small side.

I guess my only reservations are the color and the proportions. I'll work on the brim later and post shots of me wearing it on the What Hat Are You Wearing Today thread. Maybe it will just take some time to adjust to it. I've gotten used to tall crowned hats.

Side-by-side with my D'aquino for perspective:

One last dig on the company: my experience is in line with everything else I've heard about Agnoulita: they don't reply to your emails. Expect to pay your money, get ignored, and hope for the best. For what it's worth, I don't see myself ordering from them again.
