Nice collections. Aren't you concerned about moths eating the exposed hats??

...but its better than a Borsalino!!

Nice! It'll shrink down a bit before you know it.

Out lookin for more hats

Nice! Where did you get it from? I like that crown

I think Hats by 100 and Australian gear is Spectum Online P/L trading as Australian Gear. I do want to order from them, as I like their videos. That guy in it seems friendly and the info is always helpful. Anyone know if he is an owner?

Anyone know of a hatter who can do Panamas? Gonna be pricey?? :oops:

Thanks for that info ADK. May just get the Coober Pedy, though have many CDs and Open Road hats with similar dimensions. Will keep comparing.

Am thinking about getting the Coober Pedy vs. Riverina. Havent decided. Think i like the bigger brim on Riverina, but it might overwhelm my 5'6" body. Any thoughts?

Hi, is been a while since i visited the Panama hat thread. Have this Monticristi that's pretty awesome and I'd like to keep it. Don't like the shape though. Think i can steam and reshape the crown??

I take it these are sold?

The hat i had was a Stetson Firenze i believe. Dress weight. Definitely heavier than my vintage Stetsons, so I've been pretty much getting only vintage. Hornskov hats look really sharp, and would be temptedb to spring for one. Wish i could try one on!

These hats look nice. How heavy are these? To me, modern hats esp. Stetson have some weight to them. Wonder how these compare

Received my first batch of RCH customs. Randall did a stunning job of restoring these puppies to new life. Love the ribbons and bows on both. My first rolled brim, campaign bow on the western. My finest hats yet!

Is this a real Nutria hat?? Or did i waste my money?!
