The Brewster does indeed have contrasting stitching! I've been *this close* to buying the straw version of that hat.

Nice one, Bob! You and I have similar tastes apparently, because I've also got a latte Milan.

Thank you Fruno and jlee. This hat is a lighter weight but pretty stiff and has a really deep flange as does the Panama version. Fruno, I can't tell if those stitches are actually sewn into the brim or sewn into the ribbon first. But the "stitched" ribbon on the straw looks to be just a printed pattern on the finishd brim ribbon. jlee we liking lots of the same hats! I've gotten lots of compliments on the Latte Milan.

Mr Hats, thank you. Sweet pug on that Milan! The mug is another story... :) That Stetson color is called "Buck." The jail is the "Exotic Birds Correctional Institution."

The mug is why I wear hats, which can be changed up. I'm stuck with this mug, which is perfect for work on the radio. Even Groucho said, "I never forget a face, but in your case I'll make an exception." But I like the Erotic Birds Correctional Institution explanation... Can I use that one?!

Sears Pilgrim that is

This hat has all the "bells and whistles", Beaver Blend, Cushion Comfort, DuPont "Quilon" Chrome Complex water repellent and shape retaining. All this for $7.98 (well, okay 50 years ago maybe)! All it's original tags too

See a fair amount of Penney's hats but not so many Sears. The Pilgrim's Pride thread hasn't seen enough action, lately. I'll get some pics up there soon

Catching up is hard to do! The pace of super lids has been well maintained during the summer vacations.

My attempt at keeping up with the Trevi's... my Stetson Black (dark charcoal, maybe?) Milan!

Mr. Roberts, that Brewster is one sweet lid. Lovin' the mellow color! Hint to (Bob) the new photo-poster: When I take my selfies, I try to be sure they aren't visible, but today we can see the bars of your cage (or cell?) behind you, though... :rolleyes:

Wow! Sir.... That hat is just outstanding !! And right down my alley too :eusa_clap
