Not wanting to be a pain in the toosh, but could you tell me the inside circumference of one of these NOS 7 3/8 hats vs. the 7 1/2's? It seems that 22.75 inches is ideal for me, and I'd hate to put one of these beauties through a steam-n-stretch routine. Thanks.

I'm not sure, but...

I didn't measure the inside circumference of each hat, but the sizes are generally accurate, and if you need to stretch the hat a bit, you won't need to do a major stretch job. I've stretched several 7 3/8 hats to fit my 7 1/2+ head. You could go the safe route with a 7 1/2, but you still might need to stretch it a bit. If you don't have a stretcher, you can take the hat to your local western wear store. Most reputable stores can stretch your hat without a problem.

I can assure you that all of these hats have good sweatbands, and you'll have no problem bringing the hat to the correct size.

As they say on that auction site, "bid with confidence!":D

Nicely done!

Mahagonny Bill, good one. If one were to look up "porkpie" in the dictionary, one would see just this hat. Let's see it in place soon.

You Betcha! I'll get a picture in the Johnnyphi Hat Club thread as soon as it comes in. I hope you get the chance to pick up one of these great hats soon.
