Oh my, Bob, that is one cool Stetson. Looks like it had your name on it, too. Suits you.

Today....continuing down the Homburg Way is another non-European, so it’s just gray with a black ribbon. Maybe 40’s i guess. Confusing Lot numbers but the felt is not confusing at all. Every bit as nice as it’s Vita-Felt cousin. I do so love an embroidered liner.
Be well. Bowen
Bowen, you are rocking those Homburgs. "Just grey with a black ribbon" doesn't do that non-European Stetson justice.
Nice shade of grey, nice semi-wide complimentary black ribbon, nice brim. So, all in all, nice, nice, nice [emoji4]

Super deep chocolate brown colour on that Knox Superfine. The golden stripe on the ribbon bow compliments the overall shade nicely.

I forgot to say, the wide ribbon just adds to the appeal of that Knox.

Love the curl on that brim and the semi-wide ribbon, Alan. Is there any hat you don't look good in? Spoiler alert: rhetorical question[emoji4]

Thanks Steve, this is a fun one to wear. The ribbon is wide and without a bow, like a top hat. It has a large union label under the sweatband but no indication as to the maker.

You are so welcome, Alan. Looks like you enjoy wearing it. Who wouldn't, it's a beauty.
Can you post photos of the inside?
