That's a beautiful hat now.Thanks for comments
Just finished converting this nice vintage hat for a fellow lounger . This one had a glued down overwelt brim edge and he wanted it replaced with a wide ribbon for a whippet look. Felt color is a pale blue grey I choose a silvery blue binding for the hat.
Brim had to be re trimmed and glue removed carefully along with a gas bath to clean up staining on the brim.

Looks great,imo.Thanks for comments all.
Here's a western hat I converted for a fellow lounger . Hesitatingly I cut down the 3 1/2 brim per their request to 2 5/8. And although the crown is a healthy 6" I initially thought it wasn't going to look good but after putting the ribbons on the brim and crown it turned out better than I thought.
