Putting this back on first page....VS Wanderer 1000 (W1K) in the works....

This is one I'll be watching out for - sounds like the Ultimate Wanderer!

I must admit to having what I believe will be a rather interesting VS to look forward to as well

Gorgeous hat and it you look fantastic in it. Makes me think it's never too early to start thinking of Fall hats.

Love Art's stiching work on the brim. Great job Art.:eusa_clap

 

[DJH]

Fantastic, hatband - I'm glad you went ahead and ordered it. The proportions look just right. What colour is the felt?

I was tempted too after you posted that photo of Alan's Stetson, will have something to show you before too long. You might have started a trend here!

A double triple stitch?! Wow :eusa_clap

Edit - I meant a triple double stitch!

 

[hatband]

Hi Guys,
Yes, Art did a fantastic Job on the triple stitching

DJH the felt is bluesmoke.

Count me in for the scotch!!!

Hi Blackthorn,
it is a copy of a Stetson Special featured in the pre 40's Stetson thread on the Lounge.
Art did a superb job of copying the hat from the picture I showed him. It is on page 403 of this thread.

What a beauty! What are the brim width and crown height?

That is a beautiful hat. I love the proportions of it. All these posts of Art's hats are making me want to put in an order that much sooner!

Is it possible to be too early Sir? That thought has never crossed my mind.

I've been toying with "The Grand Wanderer"....Interested in seeing what you are looking forward to as well David....

NEVER too early...JMHO

 

[g.durand]

I've got one for show and tell, too. Got it yesterday. Art has done it again! Stay tuned.

 

[g.durand]

After seeing examples of Art's Modern Times series and reading all the rave reviews on the Dove felt, I ordered what is billed on the VS website as the "Wall and Broad". This came yesterday and I just had to customize it, so no out-of-the-box photos, sorry. It comes with a center dent, pinched crown, but I bashed it into a C. The nice touch on this one is the 18 ligne black variegated ribbon. 5 1/4 crown, 2 3/8 brim, raw edge.

I really like this hat. Bravo, Art.
