Milan Mania

[ManofKent]

Nice hat Mike, with a great ribbon.

I missed G.D.'s black beauty earlier too.

 

[alanfgag]

super nice.

 

[seabass]

WoW !

 

[jlee562]

Nice! I love my supernatural and it's not even as fresh looking as that one. Hopefully you get to show it off a few more times this year.

 

[mikespens]

Thanks fellas, this is my best milan yet. The days are numbered Jared, today was a surprising break from recent record rains.

PB Milan . Not a fine weave like the vintage ones but this one is durable and comfortable albeit weighty too, buy Iam liking it for now.

 

[hatsRme]

Still not quite on my game, or maybe during the hiatus, but I can't believe I missed this one, Mike... YOU look SUPERNATURAL in that super Milan! Knowing that beauty is stored away for the next few months would drive me bonkers. Wear it around the house! Also owe you a shout-out on yesterday's (?) Pendleton, a sign of fleeting Milan-wearing days.

Superb lid, Bond! Gets the job done.

 

[mikespens]

You know me too well Charlie, I have worn it around the house Still, it's time to get excited about the rodent lids again. Nice Pendleton today yourself and isn't boredom sweet?

The joy is not in having nothing to do, Mike... the joy is greatest when you have something to do, but don't do it! I think...

Of course if we lived that way, eventually the real world will catch up. And if I had always lived by that strategy, my business would not exist, my life would be dramatically different, and (worse yet) I wouldn't have so many nice hats. Or shirts. Or shoes...

Or a home to store all that junk, I mean nice stuff.

Exactly!! Or, as Mrs. Hats calls it, "SHtuff"

Looking forward to this NOS Ecuadorian Hat Co item in 7.5

 

[hatsRme]

Breathtaking, Cookie... What a find!! :eusa_clap

What is the crown height and the brim width in the front of the hat?

I would be too, very nice snag.

 

[hatsRme]

Same question to you, Mike... re: your most recent Milan find. What's the front crown height and brim width, if you would be so kind?

 

[mikespens]

4" crown in front, 4 5/8 actual center bump, and 2 3/8 brim Charlie.

 

[hatsRme]

Thank you. I'm still considering modifying a Panama to those dimensions, or thereabouts. I like that profile.

Again, thanks for taking the time, Mike.

The company is based in Baltimore, MD. At least since the 1940s.
