Biltmore Imperial navy blue homburg. This version of navy is a lighter and more vivid blue than some others.

The felt isn’t bad it would take just a bit of steam to get it to hold pinches. For me, the brim is far too small and the curl isn’t done right. Off to eBay. :)

This thin ribbon Borsalino is one of the lightest weight hats I’ve ever handled. The felt is incredible. The open crown is approximately 5 5/8” and the brim is a nice 2 1/2” finished with narrow binding. The only thing wrong with this hat is the 7 1/8 size.

I can see what you mean, Brent. I do like the colour though.

You need more Bowlers, Gary :cool:

Not many can claim to have selection of bowlers like that! A sight to see.

It's a beauty alright. Very nice.

Lots of wonderful derbies the last few days!
Thanks, Randy. When ones like those do pop up I try to get them.

And last one: Bantam in blue, i only have this picture, not a picture from inside.
