Gentlemen, Thanks for your comments. Let me first say, I agree, the hat is gorgeous and looks very nice. I don't deny that. I posted the pictures because it is a fine hat. After saving for years, and having to send the hat back and facing having to send it back yet again, I was disappointed...

Resolved.

The New "Old Borsalino" I just picked up at an estate sale. Mint condition! Find of a lifetime I think. 7 3/4 and used once if that! Can anyone tell me what style or model this Borsalino is? It is very silky soft. I think it may be beaver. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

I agree. Got my Stylemaster from them. Great service and prices for sure. Did you have to wait 12 weeks for your Campdraft? I notice there is a considerable wait for a lot of their hats and colors.

Entering the excitement with my new Stylemaster! As the new guy here, I have to say many of you have fantastic hat collections. I'm curious as to where I can start accumulating more great hats like yours. Purchased this Stylemaster from Everything Australian. Very nice quality it seems. Anyone...

Stetson Vintage Packard vs. The Chatham Hi y'all, I'm new and had a question about the Stetson Vintage Packard vs. the Chatham. Can anyone offer any pros and cons and which you would go with if you have either or both of them? Also, can you tell me how to attach pictures from existing files...
