I had my eye on the Brewster panama cuz it's on the shelf over at Village Hat Shop in downtown San Diego. What issues are there?
Im sure it's gonna vary from hat to hat but this brim is narrow with a god awful cup to the flange. Crown is too short and the pinches are poorly defined. Also some gaping in the weave. Be forewarned and try it on first. No way that hat is worth it's going retail price.

Good to know. Thanks for the heads up and sorry about the buyer's remorse =(

Actually, no. Agnoulita (AKA "The Hat Company") was giving me severely poor service due to an injury suffered by the shopkeeper. No dig against the company -- accidents happen -- but I figured I would give the store time to recover its groove before placing an order.

The fur on this one is from ManHatCo. I'll be calling them this weekend to see about that beaver fur they said they'd be offering...
You did it again, another excellent effort resulting in a top rate lid... and what a color! Love the navy!

Lil' Fed and I got some lunch and then headed to the range. Her request. We took a 9mm Glock and a 41 mag Freedom Arms model 97 revolver. She was punching bullseyes by the time we left.

Getting warm here, but we were in the shade for the most part. I wore the Wormser Milan and Lil' Fed wore her ~ late 50's/early 60's Royal Stetson... it's a so-called "beater" an ebay seller threw in as an extra after I got her the Knox Tom 'n' Jerry and the Stetson blue heathered felt Royal Stetson for her birthday. Some beater!

Karl, great photo and area. Enjoy!

Eric, both hats are so nice, but that straw takes it. Sweet coloring

Fruno, can't go wrong with a 25. Perfect

Seraph, bravo! That fits you perfectly my friend
