Ha! You're the King of Black Hats my friend! Nobody wears a Black Western as well as you do! :D
Thank you. Send them all Black Westerns to me as I am the King ;)

Another killer western/leather look Joao.
Thanks but that jacket is not leather, it's a heavy cotton fabric. It's a Schott model 918. You are not the first one to think it was leather :)

That hat looks good on you. You pull off those wide brims better than you think. You should give some thought to a Western with a brim of around 3 1/4 - 3 1/2 inches wide.
+1

TJones - 4" is definitely too much on me, but I might try 3 1/4" :)
Go for 3 1/2"

I'm still undecided about this hat. I don't know if I really like it that well. It's a nice quality hat though, and it feels substantial. My 4X Resistiol Stagecoach conversion by John Galt...I'm deciding whether or not to sell it, trade it, or keep it....
I would say also to keep it but it's your decision.

Yesterday the Dobbs West.

Andy - great looking cap

John - that looks good. How pale is bone? A typical panama shade or whiter?

Perry - that Tilden is superb.

TJones - keep it. If my attempt at a Stagecoach conversion comes out anywhere near as good as that one I'll be delighted.

Superb hats Alan and Joao!

Fantastic fedoras; Ca-razy, captivating caps, with all properly and proudly perched in place! Wearing my VS dove w/basic black ribbon, (2-1/2" bound brim) my role has (for now) transitioned to Chauffeur, Footman, Butler, etc. Here are Mom and I in another Doc's waiting room. My hair is getting longer than hers. No time for the barber lately...

Charlie - I hope your mum is doing okay. With that family resemblance I think you ought to talk her into trying a fedora - women look great in fedoras. Great VS.

Gear-guy - nice stingie.

Stingy for me today too. SAKS with a Cavanagh edge - probably the pre-hatco 70's from what Brad noted.

Richard, The Winchester bone felt bodies are like a light panama, super light khaki color. Definitely not off white.
Bowlerman has a great looking one from Falcon park that has a vintage burgundy ribbon on it.
I don't know why it's not popular around here. It was my first custom hat. I wanted a hat made with a big contrast in felt and ribbon color that screams custom.
