Thanks for all the compliments, gentlemen. I'll be wearing this hat with pride for a long time to come. Here's one with it on my melon. I think it compliments the olive green suit pretty well.

That is one of the most handsome hats I've ever seen! It really gives me some ideas for my next work of Art. Congratulations, and kudos for having the taste to go with something a more interesting!

Outstanding. Art creates uniquely beautiful hats. I have an Art-Lite with a Burgundy Ribbon on a Green Moss felt that works great. The Ribbon is so eye catching. The man knows his stuff!!!

Wear it in good health.

Thank you sir! Guys, my pics don't even come close to doing this hat justice. I'll try to get some better ones so you can see the ribbon better. I was at the office and was excited. The hat fits great. Called Art to thank him, of course he was in the shop. I know he will take care of himself and I found it hard to get off the phone with him because he is such a gentleman and the few times I have spoken with him I always enjoy the conversation and they always seem too short.

My first work of Art has arrived and I am amazed at every detail of the hat. The craftsmanship that went into producing this hat is phenomenal. I was vacillating between the Sportaire and the Trackside. Art suggested that I go with the Sportaire. I wanted something just a little different so I asked what he would suggest. He recommended going with a lighter weight hat body, ribbon binding on the brim. So I left the color choice of the ribbon for the crown and brim to Art. So it is with great pleasure that I show you my first Work Of Art.

The hat is done in a light weight Dark Moss

The ribbon and binding are done in a matching dark green color.

The recognizable signature of Art in the ribbon: a splash of red in the center knot of the bow.

The work of Art sports a Diamond bash.

Notice the hat card that Art included in the supple leather band along with my initials.

This hat will see a lot of use and I have already ordered another work of Art. I am starting to save now, so when Art finishes the second one I can order a third. My wife liked Art's Hat so much she told me that I could only order custom hats from him:eek: . Well I guess I will just have to suffer with ordering custom hats from Art :D
I guess now I am full fledged Art-a-holic with no end in site:D
Hats are like potato chips You, just can't have one!:eusa_doh:

:eusa_clap Absolutely Stunning! All of them! I'm glad that Art is feeling better. By the looks of it, he's better than ever! :D

I think my next Art will be the Goodfellow. I really have been digging the look of moss lately.

I am green with envy. Yes, that hat is beautiful...the Moss color is a great choice. I have a Sportaire in the works and cant wait for the day it arrives on my doorstep.
