Thanks, Joe. I was also inspired by the great green Borsalino you posted.

I don't need to tell you how tough these are to find in large sizes, so that's a treasure. Have done some digging on the retailer but we'll save that for when it's posted in the topper unite thread.

This HAS is going from bad to worse! I know the symptoms all to well

Rarely see these anymore for men. The hats for ladies are more common. Very cool.

Ha…. Been trying my best to keep the HAS under control of late…. But when a deal like this pops up… it certainly flares up…. No matter the condition.

I'm waiting for a super fino Havana Panama hat from Panama Hats Direct. I guess it's somewhere between Fl. and WI. today. It might get here today. I consider the entire thing rather 'iffy'. If I get it and love it, great. If it's not at all what I ordered or if it never shows up at all, that's OK too.

Hopefully you'll find something nice arriving soon - though if my bearings are right, it'll be a few months yet
before you're rushing for the straw in Illinois?

Christies did / do a model like this (though with a grosgrain sweatband), marketed as a travelling hat. I had one for a bit (until a carpet beetle got to it..... argh). I'd have been dubious about it surviving many years if constantly folded in and out of a little box like that, but it was great for taking in a suitcase - I'd pack it unfolded and layer bit in and around it; came out of the case with a few dents that popped right back in, was great to be able to take a felt hat packed like that without need of a hatbox and never have to worry.

I try to not buy hats under 7 ¼, and I avoid black homburgs, but I succumbed to the siren’s call.

It even comes with its “original” Knox hat box.

The sirens are on our side, gents! Why even resisting?

 

[Snowman]

Because one always can use another OR, right?

I just hope the sweatband is going to hold up; the stitching looked a little rough.

Those are the seller’s photos. I just bought it but hope to have it next week. I don’t play anything…but I enjoy listening.
