Thanks Robert. I'll agree.

Gonna say that my favorite of yours.
Thanks Bob. It's vying for that position with me too, certainly on the condition front. I have a few hats I really like now and it would be tough to pick an overall favorite.

mighty fine "Vermsah" there Michael ... I'll say it every single time

one of the most beautiful hats that has shown up here this year in my opinion
Thanks Anthony. But now I'm getting paranoid about sweating in it, or worse yet splashing my coffee on it. I guess they are risks it will have to endure as I certainly plan on wearing it. The Hatters to Men is certainly an entertaining slogan, but the part of the logo that caught my eye is "Styled by Wormser" . Did they manufacture all of their hats? I think they were a retail chain and manufacturer, right?

Thanks all,
Michael

they did have a brick and mortar store ... multiple maybe ... not sure if they manufactured all their hats .. I'm sure Steve or Alan knows ... I do know that the name was not pronounced as it read ... I've heard it pronounced "Vermsah"

yeah man ... don't go eating any Buffalo Wings when wearing that piece ...

I hate to baby hats ... but I will admit that there are some that I wear more gently than others ... I'm wearing one today ...

Cool. Is that a find from your flea market search yesterday? If it is, you must've been wearing your lucky hat again. Good to see you posting.

Wormser Supreme Quality.

5 1/2" crown
2 1/2" bound brim

Great piece. A little roomy, but I'm not going to let that bother me. Pretty wonky when I received it, especially the brim. Not having a 7 3/8 flange, I had to make do with the table and hand shaping. This is my first Wormser, and I'm delighted.

I still need to reattach the wind trolley, which had become detached and was reattached wrong.

Nice score!
Color scheme kind of reminds me of a peanut butter cup...:)
A Wormser is definately on my list.
