    Mikespens: what is the brim size and crown height on your milan?

    Equality, my experience is that Bob usually responds within 24 hours to email.

    I liked mikepens' new milan so much that I exchanged email with Bob and ordered one for myself with a wine colored ribbon.

    Mikepens, I'm jealous--that's a terrific milan. The color combination works well and the ribbon is great. Aught12--looking forward to seeing your Elip Creek.

    Thanks, SpeedRcrX--I checked out Bob's page. I like the new light gray taller crown that he's showing.

    I'm in the minority I suppose but I refuse to create a Facebook account. So I'll wait on the web site update. With 6 hats currently on order with Bob (including one for my wife) it's probably just as well that I haven't seen the new models.

    Show us your Pipes

    By the way, while I don't (yet) have any of Steve Morrisette's pipes, he is extremely talented and makes terrrific smoking pipes by all accounts. It's great to have two distinquished artisans on FL (the other being Brad Pohlman).

    O.G., thanks for the heads up but I don't see any new models or colors. Which ones are you referring to?

    Well, the flock continues to grow. Bob's such a pleasure to work with that I've also ordered an Alpine Mist with a 2 5/8" brim instead of 3" and a Keynote. That's 5 lids on the way. I've also got Bob working on a panama for my wife. Photos once I start receiving them.

    Bowlerman, done. I've admired your collection there, also. Also, hope I didn't get too far OT.

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Welcome, Brad. Brad is not just a tobacco pipe maker, he is, without a doubt, one of the finest in the world. His pipes are highly prized and sought after. I collect pipes and am proud to own two of Brad's, which are the two most beautiful and great smoking in my collection. I had the...

    OPTIMO FINE HATS: A Photographic Excursion

    Al, thanks so much for the photo essay. I've really appreciated all of your photos--St. Paul looks very inviting. I'm now wearing a pocket square solely due to your fine example. As to Optimo, I'll be in Chicago in November and had planned on going to the Loop store. Is it possible to buy...

    Stetson Saxon, thoughts?

    I know that modern Stetsons are not really in vogue here but I started in fedoras with a Temple and Sutley and like them both. The Temple is stiffer than the Sutley but both are comfortable and have worn well. The Sutley is pretty soft felt. The only drawback to either is the crease. I'd prefer...

    JLee562--really like the milan. Well, in my rush to order a second hat from Bob, I sent him a check but neglected to sign it. Bob, emailed me about this oversight, and, since I had to send him a new check anyway, decided to add a third hat, a Saboteur. What the heck...I was going to order...

    Nice hats Blackthorn and jlee562. Decided today to email Bob and order a Savannah, too, since I've got an order in for a Goldfinch. He might as well block two hats rather than one, at least that's my theory.

    There are at least 4 other models of Bob's hats that I'll probably order. The Golfinch was a must have, though, for me, as I don't have anything similar to the pecan color.
