Are they special order or does Paris Hatters have various sizes in stock of the 10X & the 20X?
When HatCo first took over making the OR's, they were offered in 4X & 10X, later dropping the 10X version.
Paris Hatters website is only one that I have found offering a felt 6X OR. Found a good many straw 6X but not felt.
...
According to Abe he had to order 48 of them to get the special order made. I think that is 48 of each grade... I believe the price is $250 for the 10x and $350 for the 20x.
... He was going to look into possibly getting a special order of open crown Open Roads. I told him that if he could I would post it here for him and I bet he would sell quite a few of them.
My hat got the full force of the flash. The room was dark and I was close to the hat. But, looking at i compared to the other hats, it is more grey/silver than my modern and the vintage ORs. Landman--when are you going to the shop; I'd like to meet you.
As for taking the hat to an open crown--Rick can do that. Abe has his dad's steamer in the back from a hundred years ago. They have steamed a modern OR to open crown for me with good results.
