Post New Hats Here!

Thank you all, that Knox was a pleasant surprise. Two hats that far exceeded expectations in one week. It actually went up to nearly 60 degrees today and I wore it to walk the dog.

My first post & hat

Hi all,

Just got this Churchill Neiman-Marcus today. Needs to be cleaned, and a new sweatband, but I really like the color and the ribbon. And, amazingnly, I found a 7 1/2 vintage hat!

Oh, and hi! Great to be here!

Adam Hat

Hello! New guy here, so please forgive me if I misstep! I came across an old hat in a box. I know that it is an Adam hat with "MCMXI" on the inside, but I know very little more. Can anyone tell me what I have here? Thanks!

Nice score!

All cleaned up and ready to go! My 25.10$ 1930's Dobbs cross country, what a steal. Hat was perfectly clean just needed a little steam and a hand bash. Look at the size of that crown! In my opinion this is the perfect 30's hat, 2" brim and a skyscraper crown. The felt is even lighter than my late 30's playboys. Oops, sorry forgot we're not using the word bash anymore, HAND CREASE! All good. Continue on.

I really like that one! Good job! :eusa_clap

I keep coming back to look at this one. A fine example of a thin ribbon. With a great crease to boot!
Well done!

Pinzano gray milan straw Truman fedora from Hat Guys

I shot this in the small bathroom downstairs because the light is pretty good in there. Yes, I have a small collection of cowboy memorabilia (my size 7 3/4 head is blocking the view of the Hopalong Cassidy AM radio) in the bathroom. Doesn't everyone?[huh]

Let me take a moment to tell you of my absolutely positive experience with Hat Guys in Oakland. I placed an online order for this hat on Thursday afternoon, about 2PM EST. I didn't get a confirmation email, which didn't concern me too much, but a few hours later I figured I'd give them a call just to make sure they got the order. I called and the lady that answered said that Ken, the guy who handles the web orders, wasn't there right now, and she would take my number and have him call me. Shortly thereafter, I got a call from Ken letting me know that he did indeed get the order and that he had already packed it up and had it ready to go. And I did get a confirmation email a little while later; their shopping cart just takes a while to generate the emails. I received the hat today (Saturday)--all the way from the west coast to the east coast--by Priority Mail. That's lightning fast in my book.:eusa_clap

Ken was friendly and helpful, and he didn't act like it was a burden to have to deal with a customer. That seems like a small thing, something that should just be expected, but I was greatly impressed with Hat Guys because this Pinzano--let's face it--it's essentially an inexpensive hat. It's not like I'm buying a $300 Borsalino, and I have had experiences with other stores in the past where I felt like I was treated like a second class customer, as if I was an imposition upon them because I wasn't buying one of their big ticket items. Hat Guys, though, seem to treat their customers with respect regardless of how much money they're spending. I'll be buying from them in the future for sure.
