[g.durand]

Whoa...! That stopped me in my tracks.

Joao could use a totally new model hat. "The Awning" by Stetson! Haha! But you have to love him with his passion for those wide brim hats!

"Take my hat... please!"

 

[SurfGent]

Rust and cobalt what cool different colors than we are used to seeing in vintage picks

No.
You can have a hat with the best ever felt in the world but if it have a short brim, I'll not covet it.
I'll say to you it is a nice hat but because of the short brim, I don't want it.

You know how it works Cindy

"Covet" and "Appreciate" are two different words for two different things. I can accept, that you don't covet a hat with a 2-3/4" brim. That you seem not even able to appreciate one, makes me wonder!

 

[Joao Encarnado]

I do appreciate those 100's (and some fedoras but not *ALL* of them), but I wouldn't want them for me.
If they had a wider brim, I would be all over it.
Since not, all I can say it's a "great hat" or "nice looking" and that I have no interest on them unless they had a wiiiiiiider brim (see this more or less as most of you feel about ballcaps).
I'm sorry if I didn't express myself the better way.

That's pretty much exactly what makes me wonder. The extremely short distance between the more or less flavorless "nice" to "but"

If some fat-ribbon-fan wrote "nice but", 90% of the times, Perry showed us one of his gorgeous hats - that would make me wonder too.

The lack of enthusiasm outside of one's own, small niche just seems so sadly limiting to me ... that's all, Joao

Not sure how old. Haven’t checked it out.
Shudde Bros hundred. Looks kinda unworn. I know it’s not a real old one, leaf in the liner, stars in the sweat deal. Wanted the sweat for a work in progress but idk.
If these pics are wankey tell me Please. I’m still trying to figure that out.
Be well. Bowen

Greetings Rclark et al:
I like your’s lots better!! Your’s looks so much softer and lush. I’m guessing it’s open crown. Mine is nice felt but rigid to an extreme imho. Much rather be able to play with the crown than fight with it. So i’ll leave it as is.
Thanks for posting it up. Way nice!!
Be well. Bowen

Beautiful hat Rick! Do you have any info on Col Graham? Looks like he took good care of his hat.

Your's looks pretty good too Bowen! Especially to a guy like me who doesn't have a 100!
