With all the excitement of the arrival of my Penny’s Marathon I almost forgot about its travel mate.
Keith XXXX Major ‘Imported Coney’ in black.
Black ‘Imported Coney Fur’ - essentially Rabbit
Size 7 “custom made”
4 1/2 inch crown as creased
2 inch underwelt brim
2 in grosgrain ribbon
1 3/4 leather sweat
Wind Trolley
No manufacturing tags under liner at all
I believe Fruno had said the Keith hat brand is part of the Lion/Beaver hats brand lineage.
This hat really has a very nice feel to it and I really like it’s look.
This evening I got caught in a downpour and got to take advantage of its ‘Mirakal Process - Water Proof - DuPont Quillion’
I really like the lines and look of what I assume is its factory crease. It has a classy look to it as is... I think I will keep it this way as my other black hats I have mostly given deeper pinches and creases.
Best,
Joe

You will probably be asked for proof of citizenship in Denmark, Steve.I was expecting to be posting a Dobbs and a Mallory in this thread today. However, a really wonderful surprise changed that. I bought two hats from Bob Hufford. They arrived today. He very kindly added this to the lot, unbeknownst to me. A Stetson Open Road 4x Beaver Silver Belly! I've been wanting one for a while. What a great surprise and a very kind gesture, Bob. Thank you so much [emoji145]
P.S. Don't worry folks, you'll be seeing the Dobbs and Mallory very soon [emoji4]

Well, it was used.... hehehe.
This could just as appropriately be placed in the WTF Hats thread. This is the Anchor Man that I posted photos of last week. I’ve never seen another hat like it. For $12.18 including shipping I had to have it.
It’s got some impressive measurements: 6 1/4” open crown and a 3 3/4” deeply flanged brim. It swallowed my straight sided block with almost no resistance; it was originally blocked with very little taper. I’m not sure if the sweatband is leather or an imitation, but from the feel I know it won’t let me peak under it. Size is a generous 7 5/8 and fits me perfectly.
The weave is very open...about SPF 2.
The weave gives it a delicate personality leaning towards feminine, but the dimensions, the 7 5/8 size, and the bow on the left makes me think it’s a man’s hat.
