Fresh from a VS refurbishment, a very old Stetson with a pencil curl brim. 5 1/2" open crown, 3" curled brim. Pleased as punch with how this turned out. Unfortunately, the original ribbon could not be saved, but Art replaced it with some vintage 4 ligne.



Jared, that is absolutely a stunner . I would even be pleased as spiked punch with Art’s restoration. Does the 3 inches of brim include around the curls? The proportions just look so perfect.

I think everything about that hat is fabulous! Great shape, color, texture, new ribbon looks great from here.

Thanks for the kind comments and likes, gents. Art (and David!) do great refurb work at extremely reasonable prices.

Jeff, the 3" includes the curls, the 'apparent brim width' is 2.5"

If anyone ever asks; what's your favorite style of hat, dimensions and proportions, with a bow you really like? This is where I point.

PH. Möckel Hutfabrik, Homburg vor der Höhe, Official Supplier to his Majesty the Emperor & King and Official Supplier to his Majesty the King of England, possibly early 1900s. PH. Möckel Hutfabrik, Homburg vor der Höhe made the first Homburg Hat for Edward VII King of England. This Stiff Felt has great form and wears feather light. It's very difficult to find original PH. Möckel Hutfabrik, Homburg vor der Höhe because the company went out of business in 1931.

What a wonderful hat. Is it navy blue?

With a little sun peeking through the clouds I was successfully tempted to wear my NW Hat Co Silverbelly/Old Copper fedora. It was a birthday present 2 years ago and still a favorite. Paired with a Hawaiian shirt and a leather jacket. Fun dress for grocery shopping, hehehe...

What a great idea for wearing Aloha shirts when the weather's not exactly Hawaiian.
