This is a catch and release. It arrived over the holiday but despite being marked 7 3/8 Long Oval it's too small for my 59cm head. There are some moth marks on the top of the brim and under the ribbon that I've tried to show accurately in the photos.

This is my first Champ and whatever "Kasmir Finish" means I like it a lot. The felt is a handsome muted beige with a soft hand and a the right mix of suppleness and stiffness. The 2 3/8" brim is cooperative snapped or up well and the teardrop crown holds its shape well. As creased it's about 4 1/2" in front and 4" in back. 5 1/2" open.
