Oh, and are you going to do anything with the westerns? Are you just collecting them, or are you going to convert them?

As a proponent of conversion would love to see what you could make out of them!

I like it! I have one marathon, not as nice as that one, and one little towncraft (2 1/4 brim). I volunteer for the Knoxville Marathon organizing committee, and I love to wear it to meetings. Everyone there has a marathon cap, and they just don't understand when I describe my hat as a 'marathon.' Yours is a very nice looking marathon!

Nice one!

Thanks for all the kind comments.

I am leaving them as they are, I love western hats, maybe add a few straws to the collection next year, almost definitely an OR straw.

Great looking hat, and the proportions work very well for you.

Thank you for that, my wife thought the crown looked a little tall, but as I reminded her it is a little shorter than most of my westerns, it's just the brim is narrower thus making it look a little taller. I'm very happy with it anyhow.

Funny you should mention it -- just how wide is the brim on that most fine looking hat?

Thanks.
