Super & fine, indeed.

What color be the felt? Black? Looks kind of like a very deep blue on my screen. Can't tell if that's what it truly is or of it is a result of the sunlight or maybe the hat's relationship with the ribbon (which has one heck of a stylish bow, by the way).

Thanks, Matt. It's a very, very dard chocolate with a hint of heathering. The ribbon is a tad lighter brown with the accent on the bow. I have yet to be able to really capture his one. When I got it recently, it was overcast and I never really saw it in good light until today's sunshine.

No knocks against that super fine hat. Looks great.

Thanks, Michael! I dig your Borsa Hommie today. There's enough reading material inside the hat to keep you busy for a while.

This is a pretty decent hat if you can get a good discount from the list price. Felt is much superior to the 6X and feels like it will be relatively easy to change the crease. Color is consistent and I’m not seeing excessive dye powder. My main complaint is the stitching attaching the ribbon- too many stitches and they look like they are shot in. The ribbon complaint is common to all new Stetsons.

I like the look of it very much, but for those stitches. Nice!

One Too Many
If you are directing this statement at me, that is so very sad indeed. No one said you are stupid and no one said you are not able to understand things.
You may not remember, but it was when Bob got kicked. I insulted you. It was well out of order. I'm Sorry. No excuse. Not right in any way on the read back, and possibly worse in the moment. Karl

Nothing new for me today. 3X Stetson

Maybe not new, but your OR Styles are always a joy to see.

Hey folks!
This Borsalino Como, estimated to be from around the turn of the millenium, has subtle green undertones that rarely photograph well. Today is one of those rare afternoons.

I'm really liking that hat. I've considered the 6X many times but the stiff felt was a turnoff. Thanks for the review.
