I might not leave the house today. But if I do, I will pick one of these three sages. Any one would be a wise choice, I think. From left to right, Stetson Bantam, Knox Twenty, StylePark by Templeform.

(Sage green is such a hard color to photograph with a phone camera. This one is pretty accurate).

ALL beauties, Alan! The Stylepark has the same wind cord button position as my Stylepark, semi-centered on the back "flap" of the bow. I had thought this feature wasn't original to the hat, but now I wonder...

Esther, Eric... thanks. It's a luxury to have a day indoors. I always enjoy choosing a hat to wear. Sometimes I pick the wrong one, but there is always tomorrow. 8^)

That's why you go back inside and change it if time permits

Beautiful hat Joao !! Still looking for my Silverbelly, I will wear the black Gus today.

Thanks - and to Bob and the likers too. I could be tempted to acquire one of these someday.

Time to wake some felts up from their summer slumbers. Today a green/grey Cavanagh.

Perfect condition inside and out.


Cheers!
David

Hi Charlie... definitely original. The fixed wind cord button had brief fling at Stetson around 1940. This Imperial Stetson (3x Beaver Quality) is an example. The looped string uses a button on the coat rather than a buttonhole.

Thanks... will keep an eye out. The Knox Twenty was a popular hat. They show up often.

But is Stylepark the only one placing the button there, UP on the bow?

You are right.

There is nothing like a very early morning walk in Paris.
When I go to check out the new ribbon collection of one of my suppliers I take an earlier train just for that.

Though Antwerp isn't bad either.

You know when you are in the neighbourhood the beer's on me

 

[Bob Roberts]

Last night heading out to play guitar with a bud. Wearing my vtg. Stetson Beachcomer.

Early this morning I was out in the yard wearing a vtg. Stetson Stratoliner (cadet blue).

Best, Eric -

"Cadet Blue" is my choice for the best colored Strat.

[Bob Roberts]

Erics Cadet Blue is worth a second look.

Aint that sweet.

I like very much the sage color.....all three are astounding and very well shooted.
The rendition of the color is good....I have a curiosity about the Steson Bantam
Do you know when Stetson made the patent of Bantam type?
I have a whole afternoon at home looking to some historical books about Italians hats producers
Cappellificio Cervo has a very famous bantam hat in production

the hat for Italian Alps troops and they seems had introduced the civil hat around 1934-35
So if you have more information about that name let me know. Thanks
