Love the crease and the hat, Roger! I thought your Dallas was a light color, but it appears gray in this photo. Is that accurate?

Hey Rick is a fairly dark grey

Perfect Roger! I like the long looking diamond point. What an education.

I'd love to get my hands on a Borso one of these days. Looks good, moon.

I posted these same pics in the Western Anyone, thread. Took me a while to finally decide on a crease for this Resistol Stagecoach.

I finally decided on a Montana Peak Crease, for now, with a Mule Kick in the back. I also reshaped the brim again...

Another covet of the Moon variety!

I think it's nice even the last one you had on it.

The felt on this Gannon Black Cherry is unique in that it seems to take most any bash. As it came from Michael, it had a loose center dent and some side dents, but one day it kind of fell into a c-crease and then a real nice diamond. Friday night I steamed a couple hats and this was one of them. I decided to keep the diamond but steam that front crease a little tighter ans to lengthen the side dents. I really love the progression of this one and, ultimately, the final result. Michael does some fine work, that's for certain.

Love the tighter pinch Doug! This hat is on my covet list!

Not a diamond, but how about something a little different. I'm going for a early century center dent with longer side creases. Not to be confused with a cattle man's crease (although it kind of looks like one) on my Olcott Homburg. I had Mike put a substantial crease down the crown so I can sometimes use a crease clip for historic occasions. The 1912 version copied does have the look of the teens!

Great crease, Red, and a really beautiful hat. I like how you incorporate history into your custom hats. That 1942 Rose Bowl hat is one I'd like to copy in silverbelly felt.

What are the colors of this one, Red? Is that silvermist and silvery-blue ribbon with a brim binding that matches the felt?

Thanks, RJR!

Gannon (granite colored felt w/charcoal ribbon).

Great bash on that one, Eric!
