After a naptha soak, its looking much nicer. I also re sewed the otherwise mint leather sweatband back into place and gave it a good lexol conditioning. Clay is extremely moldable and its a very lightweight hat similar to my champ featherweight
I saw that, too. I follow John's posts on FB so I got that first thing. I love that hat. Very classy lid, Jeremy! John is about 31 miles from me. I've been to his shop several times and he's always been real great to work with.
Thanks Doug!! I have family that still lives in Portland and the next time I am in town I really wanted to try and swing by his shop and Mike Millers as well.
I still need to get in there. Never seem to have the time when I'm running around PDX. Need to call for times he is there?
I had to scroll through a days worth of anti-trump memes and liberal crazy web site postings to get to the pictures. I was worth the trip! This is one stellar hat Jeremy! Can't wait to see it on you.
The wife struggled with much of the same when she looked it up for me when I got home. I'm glad it was worth it, lol. Thanks again Mike! I can hardly wait for it to arrive! Never thought I would drop that kind of coin on a hat but when I saw the pictures of it on his site I absolutely had to have one like it.
sensational looking hat!! That ribbon detail is a very nice touch
In the garage working wearing the Akubra Bushman.
Still a nice hat to wear while doing some therapeutic mechanical work. Since I am always under the car or under the hood, I always resort to an old Bishop Brothers Auto Auction ball cap. I digress before the bartenders kick me out for riding the wrong train for too long.
If it's too big...
