Very light tan grey - size 7

2 5/8 brim with 1/4 inch binding

4 1/2 inch crown as bashed

1 1/2 ribbon with rather unique styling

It does not surprise me this hat came from the same owner as the Musketeer as he seems to have had excellent taste for unusual ribbon styling

Holy smokes, Joe! Two home runs; dream hats for most any of us. Love the ribbon and bow work on them both.

Stetson Bogart in caribou. 5 5/8” open crown and 2 3/4” bound brim (sold to me as a 3” brim). Tone-on-tone ribbon and binding. The hat lacks a felt quality designation on the sweat or liner, but the label behind the sweatband identifies it as Royal DeLuxe. The felt feels identical to the current Royal DeLuxe open crown (Premier) Stetsons. I went with a simple shallow crease to keep as much crown height as possible.

It's not a musketeer yet, but it sure could be! Another winner, Joe.

Nice one, Brent. Looks good on you.

That's a fabulous hat, Joe. And in a size 7 too; can I say that I am a bit jealous? I just did.

It is pretty fun to find one that sparks even a tiny bit of envy. A feat you, Alan and others here accomplish on the regular :) Two in one shot... is like that elusive hole in one! Accomplished with a huge bit of luck and little help from my FL friends...

Echter Nobleza Velour, 58 cm, possibly mid to later 1950s. No paper label and couldn't find anything on the (fantasy) trademark. The Velour is really fantastic (color + hand) and is similar to Seal Velour finish wise. I had a very hard time trying to photograph this hat.

I love the sheen on this hat, Steve. It absolutely shines in the right light.
