Vintage Ramenzoni Carteira homburg... age unknown... I suspect, 1940s or 1950's

Very nice find, Fabio. Excellent shape and even shows a little reverse taper. I hope the sweatband holds out.

I’m in a bit of a hurry to get to work, but this hat couldn’t wait. It wasn’t so much dusty as it had a layer of topsoil. It cleaned up well, but in bright sun I can still see dust coming off when I brush it.

5 1/2” open crown, 2 7/8 wide brim, 1 3/4” wide black ribbon, 2” wide sweatband. And of course it has the Cavanagh (Mode) edge that I love. The sweat is soft and supple and the entire hat is in great shape. The onion skin liner protector is intact and isn’t excessively cloudy. Here you go:

Everything is bigger in Texas! I'm really a 5/8 like you, but using the other ruler, I get to buy 1/8th hats!

I like “Beast.” It fits. I don’t recall where that tape measure came from, but it’s hard to believe the manufacturer could screw up the calibration that much!

Everybody knows...One’s a male’s and one’s a female’s...sheez!
I gotta splane everything??
