    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    So I just received this very nice Lee hat, and the felt is super soft. But the bound edge has come loose in the front and on the side. This was not described in the listing, but its such a great hat that I am going to keep it. Anyone know if a loosened bound edge can be repaired?

    ok, so I have a ton of hats now, have been collecting from Ebay mainly. Some that I like are a bit small and need to be sized up, as I am in between sizes, or perhaps a LO. Am getting tired of cranking on a Hat Jack and feel that I may be altering vintage hats that could go to someone who it...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Thanks! I really like it. The moth and beat up ribbon don't bother me, they seem to add to the character of it. Can even go sweatbandless, but i think i would want to protect the felt. I will brush and steam. Quick shower on top too aggressive??

    Does the 7 1/8 and 7 1/8 long oval have the same dimensions? My understanding is that the long oval is just slightly longer than the regular, but the sides have to be more narrower then if they have the same dimensions. Or is the 7 1/8 long oval slightly larger than a 7 1/8, but less than a 7...

    Western, anyone?

    Sweet hats. I need to post my recent straw acquisition from Brent. I also want to get my feet wet with a Gus style hat. Felt in SB. Fairly nice one so that if I like it I'll keep it, but not too pricey because its my trial hat. Any suggestions? Not alot on Ebay right now.

    For storage, does anyone stack hats with foam rings around them for protection? If so, do they cause any damage to the felt? How many do you stack per pile? Where can I get some? Thanks!

    Panama Hat Thread

    It's been a while since I've been on this thread. I used to buy from Panamabob back in the day. His prices were very fair and I never had trouble with hats being shipped from him. But he has since disappeared (anyone heard from him since?). But I am wondering where to go now, for no nonsense...
