From the last few days, because I've been too lazy to post in real time.

Good looking hat, Joe. I wonder if that stitching was always there or was added later.
It is possible. The only ad I see for Paragon Leisure light notes chamois finish with raw edge and no mention of brim stitching. But it also indicates self felted hat band. This one has grosgain ribbon. There is one Leisure lite in the paragon thread belonging to buler … that one has a narrow bound edge and what appeared to be a thin ribbon. But could be a narrow self felt. I suppose there is a decent chance mine was either modified or at least special order... to add brim stitching and the mid ribbon. Coincidentally the mid ribbon and brim stitching is very similar to their Sky Master offering.

If that Special is your size, Bob, you'd better not get it mixed up in your For Sale stack!

Nice one, Don. I need to dig out my 7XCB.


Looks like a great beater, David!
Go to rain hat, the Stetson Sovereign 20 beater.
