Probably the only real thin ribbon I own, it's new to me. I guess I'm not in the brotherhood though.

Bolthead, that is a hat that anyone would be proud to wear. Rugged but stylish. What kind is it and what color is that?...Deenis

It's a Mallory, and it is moss green.

Been meaning to post my thin's but never got around to it until now.

In order from top to bottom, the first six are a Penney's Marathon, Bradford Kingston, Resistol waco, Borsalino, Adam Texarkana and another Penney's Marathon. The next six are coming up in the next post.

Here are the next ones:

The first one is a Beaver Brand, Glenburnie Supreme, stetson Open road, Knox Westlite (smoothest felt on the planet), Penney's Towncraft.

Redhawks, it seems as though you've been holding out on us. Nice collection of thin ribbons!

Bluegrass Green Campdrafts in stock 60cm+

EA shows US $74.93 for Bluegrass Green Campdraft in sizes up to 64cm. I had a back order in for a 60cm so i expect to see a ship notice soon.

Neophyte · Aug 14, 2010

I've had this Campdraft for a while. It's Taupe Fawn. My 4th hat, 4th Akubra, 1st hat that is perfect for me. I like it a lot. Taupe Fawn is a safe color, though. Eventually I'm gonna need to find something more...risky lol .

Tweaked the shape a little bit:

After a hard day of work:

What I like to call "The Money Shot":

May I join the Brotherhood?

For Rusty & Jimmy, My Stetson Royal Deluxe.

Not an Open Road or Stratoliner, just a generic Stetson with the thin ribbon that could pass for either hat. This bad boy is super soft & pliable. Kind of hart to tame the brim sometimes, so I just let it do its thing. I'm guessing this is from the late 1940's but I'm not 100% on that. Enjoy!

Cheers!

I got my Open Road today (The OR Guild chaps' best guess is early '60s).

This will definitely become my traveling hat. It is just so versatile and comfy.

RBH · Oct 28, 2010

This needs a bump what with all the fine thin ribbons we have had lately.
come on guys... post away!!

Jabos · Oct 28, 2010

Okay, I need advice from the thin ribbon crowd. Please, don't tell anyone over in the Art Fawcett thread my question-they will consider it blasphemy!shhhhhhhh

I am in cue with Art for a Black Cherry. I want to keep it on the casual side of things and also make it different. Does anyone have an opinion on whether a thin ribbon black cherry would "work"? At first I dismissed the thought, but then I started wondering. I see something in that ballpark on page 32 of this thread and I like it.

This is a Wright's Beaver Blend Open Road clone that appeared to be NOS when I received it. Here's a picture of the hat after walking my dog for about half an hour in drizzly rain Saturday:

As it happens, the maker seems to have designed this hat for wet weather wear:

Looks as though the water proofing has become a bit weak. Great hat!
