Miller Fine Hats, Denver CO. 4X Quality. I think I really overpaid for this raggedy hat, and will dump more money into it to fix it up, but this seems like the oldest Miller I've seen and I'm thinking/hoping it's from the 1920's, if not earlier.

Waiting on my first Stetson to join the Akubra/Resistol collection...

Skyline 6X in chocolate.

Stetson are hard to get in Aus at the moment, and I seem to have found the last size 60 available (win).

Stetson... I'm very impressed and easily my favourite in the line-up right now...

Glad you got that one. Joe. I was watching that one and was surprised it didn't sell the first time around. A Borsalino homburg in blue still eludes me.
I was watching the first time too… and forgot to bid. That mistake only Cost me a week and an extra 6 bucks LOL. That seller had three really nice hats that did not sell very well.. not sure why. Was glad to get one of the three great deals!

Shocking though that is a missing spot in your incredible collection. Certainly though one of those real dark blueberry ones? Can’t remember the name… mirtillo is it?

You would think that, but blue Borsalino homburgs are quite rare.

I’m not entirely sure what I bought. Looks pretty old and my size. Brief research looks like dating depends on the dimensions View attachment 666976 View attachment 666977 View attachment 666978 View attachment 666979
Congrats! Looks like a Sears Carlsbad. Here's a link to one I found a few years ago, and some other examples exist here on the forum:

Nice get on the Malrov cap, too. I have a fedora from them as well.
