Fantastic shape, waves, and flows on that Black Sheep, Mike. Definitely deserves some serious head time.

With additions like those 4 Stefan, you can hog all the way to hogmanay. Seriously, I'm so pleased they're not my size, I'd have been too tempted to buy them all. Some right sized heads are in for a lucky treat when they buy any one of those. Nice finds, my friend.

A new Portis for me. I’ve been looking for another one after being so impressed with my first one, and thought this one was unique. It’s a 3X Silver Beaver and a unique ribbon. I’m not sure if it is a suede finish, as I’ve never had one to compare, but it is definitely a longer nap than any I have. Love the color and fits great. I usually change the bash right away on a hat, but I really like this one as it came. Kinda like the feather too.

Super Portis, Tim. Great colour and ribbon treatment. Nice nap, but not suede. Semi to quarter long haired I'd say. Suede is more smooth and sleek to see and to the touch.

Thanks Steve.
Enjoy the lull while it lasts, Steve
The week isn't over yet! But it doesn't get old to find hats like these.Thanks, Randy. Well pleased to have found that one. It's a rare colour for a homburg.
Nice find, Tim. Bit unsure about the feather myself, but you wear it well.

LOL, thanks Stefan, I'm still unsure about the feather myself, may depend on the occasion.....
What would you call that ribbon 'bow' ? I've never seen one like that.

Neither have I. If you think of a name for it: go for it!

Awesome Hat! I will say back in the 20's and 30's, hats like that were not sold as homburgs but rather up-brim soft hats (fedoras). Look at some of my early catalog postings and you will see what I mean.......New to me, this interesting all, or mostly wool, 1930s Harald, German Homburg. The third of the three hats I gifted to my self thanks to our favourite Dutch hat enabler [emoji4].
First all wool Homburg I've encountered with a back bow. It rang all the bells for me history, shape, form, make-up wise. Just had to have it. The wind-cord was the icing. Thanks to Stefan for allowing it to be sent my way.

Very nice Hagwood. I like feathers, but it depends on the hat. My personal take is I never remove them from vintage hats.

A recent find, this black custom 7X from JW Hats in Salt Lake City. This one has a very smooth finish and very soft, comparable to my Stetson Imperial. The crown is on the short side (5 open, 3 3/4 finished) with a lot of taper for what I call an Aussie top. 2 1/2 brim is a good size for me but while the size is right (7 1/8), the crown is just too short for me to wear, so I'll have to move this one on to a new owner.

Man, that is a short crown. I wonder if you could make a pork pie out of it.....

The seller’s photos didn’t make it look that low. I’m sorry that this hat didn’t work for you, particularly since it sounds like it’s otherwise a very nice hat.
I wonder who commissioned a custom hat with such a low crown?
