Great. Hard to find them when they're not advertised. All mine were stumbled upon as well...except my custom - stumbled a bit when I got the bill.
Wearing a hat versus not wearing a hat is the difference between looking adequate and looking your best.
actually, I just found this clip which shows the outside of the shop itself (@ 46-56 seconds). Yesterday, it was either the hat or lunch, and I can get lunch any day.
Monte, you may enjoy this too! Oh, provincial news... Enjoy!

(by the way, that's about all there is in that town.) A street, a courthouse, a few antique shops, and a Xmas tree farm from which I usually chop and purchase our tree each year.)

I REALLY like that Champ. The brim is just right for the color and crown. Sort of a Sinatra-esque hat. If it's a 7, let me know if you ever want to sell it!Originally Posted by bowlerman

Champ Kasmir "Black Hawk" but I think it's an especially charred very dark grey. full crown, 2 1/8" high flanged brim.

You can have my girl, but don't touch my hat!

Jeff, that Stetson is beautiful! The liner is amazing. I've never seen a Stetson liner in that color. When do you think that hat was made?

I found in a market place this hat, like paste, unlined , ribbon like is, soft, smoth, in $ 100 pesos ($ 8.00 USD), this is a new to me, was cleaned, desinfected and used, is very warm now wich winter begins, Hatter an me believe is rabbit hair, but can not say who is the maker ˇˇˇ
any where, any place,be kind with animals, keep on warm walking, smiling and shadowing, life is plenty
Wow, I like the color combination. The ribbon could use a little work, but otherwise it looks great.

Groucho Marx said it best:
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying all the wrong remedies.”
I have worn it now a couple days, makes a nice winter hat in a colder climate, it reminds me of one of these hats in this post http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showt...=1#post1451115
As I said I got the white one because of it's historical meaning, not because it fits me (although that is nice too, it has the tag of 58 inside it). I have more pictures of the white one if anyone is interested. It is a really old one since it was part of the Swedish uniforms of 1910, 1923 and 1939.
