Wearing my latest hat project. I completely reworked this Melton. The hat sports a taller straight crown with a 2 5/8 bound snap brim. It's creased in my preferred Teardrop with a tight pinch.

I sewed on a new brim binding with a black 1 1/2 ribbon and bow. I gave the bow a slight upward swoop.

My vote goes to that one Joe, I love it!

That has a lot of interesting, contradictory complementary features to it, Joe. Short brim contra high crown, box car type back bow bow, the blue in the grey and the grey in the blue. Not to mention the contrasting brim binding, which highlights the whole ensemble. A lot of thought has gone into the design of that Stetson.
A great addition to StingyMas.

Thanks guys. Always good to break with the norms... or not. :);)

You beat me to it with a great example, Brent. We've had a great Stingy week courtesy of Joe @Blare
Next week we need to go big, real big, and make it a big brim week!
