Nothing wrong with that.......Dinerman said:I've found that the older, wide brimmed ones are pretty hard to find. Lots of stingy ones out there, though.

Is that the true color? It's amazing, I love the bash/pinch as well.....very nice lid.jimmy the lid said:Here's a reprise of the Dobbs Gay Blade:
I really love this hat. Looks great with casual attire or more formal duds, and the felt feels smooth and substantial. I notice that Optimo has a model called the "Mitchum" fedora that is somewhat reminiscent of this style, as well. This is my only Dobbs lid, but judging by the lids posted on this thread, it's clear that Dobbs made great quality hats.
Cheers,
