Post New Hats Here!

[Davidannon]

A new Stetson Penn, ordered off of the Stetson Europe website.
Shipping took two days and I received it in a Stetson box, got it in a size 6 7/8 (55cm)

It has modern Stetson satin lining but sadly does not have a leather band. Not quite sure what the sweatband ís made of though.

Brim is 3 3/4 inches wide
Crown height is approximately 5 1/2 inches

I heard a rumor that Max @drmaxtejeda was building a panic room lined with the built-ins from the, now closed, Bernie Utz Hats in Seattle. When he feels stressed he can just step into the room and look at his hats until he feels better.

I know I would feel better looking at his hats...

Ha ha ha...Lmao!!
I saw this coming.
That’s why i told him if he retires and relocates in the US, don’t look for a house, look for an old bank that’s closed.
In retrospect, i was shortsighted.....
A chain of banks Max or possibly Fort Knox, i hear it’s empty!

My new-to-meCaxton, also conformed to my head. It was waaay too large, and unreeded.

I am also posting some pics of an article about Ignacio in a Mexican magazine, of him working on my Caxton, and an antique contraption he has to measure the size of the hat a customer is comfortable in.

Too true. I’m suspect the rest of his house as well.

Where’s the animal sacrifice and whatever else is needed to magic any hat into a 7 1/4 long oval?

What will we do when the folks with these skills are gone? Is there a new generation ready to take their place? Gorgeous hats, Max.

Mind if I post photos of Ignacio’s hat tools in the Hatters tools thread? Might be of interest to someone.

Looks great on you Max! What were Ignacio's thoughts on this felt?

 

[Dlaniger]

So do I. Have to take some to my hatter tomorrow, especially the ones that are too large.

He said it was going to be a b***h to make the hat smaller, because it is a very tight felt. He said felts like that just aren't made anymore, and asked how much it cost me. He was surprised when I told him, thought it should have been twice as much.
Then, when I gave him the Dobbs Fifty to conform, he was in awe.
Said the felt was immensely superior to the thousand-dollar El Presidente stuff that Stetson was selling nowadays.
