Blustery day and in need of supplies. Grab and go stingy for some aerodynamic protection. Borsalino Mirtillo from
the early 1960s gets some time in the wind.

Fantastic color Mike. I’m still searching for a Mirtillo Borsalino

Hey all!
"World's Finest" is a pretty lofty claim. Unless, of course, you can back it up.
This Dalton Genuine Beaver sure can!

Whether or not Dalton actually is the world's finest is a matter of opinion, but this one could certainly hold it's own in any hat competition.
Have a great day!

3X OR liner is long gone but the felt is pretty wonderful. This one has a 2 7/8” brim. I seem to be going more and more with some version of a cattleman on the ORs.

I didn't catch how cool that bow treatment was when you originally posted this one. The lines of this one are great, but the detail of that ribbon is spectacular! Good to see it in the light of day on your head.

Looks like the sweat is in excellent shape. That felt does look wonderful, smooth and a great color. Nice one Richard.

Mike, the sweat was a good one to start and is still in good condition. I need to do a little cleaning on the ribbon but, except for the liner, the hat is in excellent shape

I like that the more I see it, Moe. Are you going to attempt to revive the wind trolley?

Wow, that’s a great hat. I’d go a long with the “world’s finest” claim.

Thanks Mike! The ribbon work is just icing on the cake!

Thanks Jim! I'm certainly enjoying wearing it!
I've never been a big fan of wind trolleys. I sometimes remove them if they aren't in perfect shape or don't fit exactly right. I dig the fixed button though, it has the cool look without the string flopping around.

Me too!
It could hold it's own in a steel cage match with any Stetson or Borsalino.

After church with Sandra and daughter; wearing the dark navy Disney. I'd forgotten how much I love this hat.

Great proportions and color. Love everything about it.

Always like seeing Art's work. Looks great.

Brass Rooster custom (just picked it up!) Color in the first photo is the most accurate. Love the vintage green band and binding. This will be one of my “band hats”.

Hopefully it’ll keep cooling down so I can pull out all my felts soon...

Very nice. Does it really take a year to get one from them?

You have every reason to smile!
And that Disney is just icing!
Maybe we see more of it in the Disney thread?

Thanks. I have four from John. Only one I had him make and it took a month, maybe five weeks. Honestly I can’t see him saying a year either (now at least, not sure about the past). He’s good to work with but - to be fair - a bit pricey. He truly prides himself on unique customs and knows my somewhat eclectic tastes.

The one I just posted he had just posted on his Facebook page a few days ago. I happened to stop by to pick up a vintage hat he was re-sweating for me. It was there and, yup, just happened to be my size. I think he planned it. Ha.

Two hat day. This morning for services I chose a Silverbelly VS. It's a very simple looking hat but I think it has a classic look. Love it as I do all my hats from Art Fawcett.

This afternoon I switched to my Gannon Natural. This has a bit taller crown at 6" and wider brim at 3".

My mistake. I was thinking of Black Sheep Hat Works when I asked about 1 year waiting.
