Nice hat Bushman.

Thanks, guys! I love it, though, I've already bought a Stetson Chatham in Caribou with the gift cards I got for X-mas. I got da bug!

here are two new Borsalinos. First, a sisal straw fedora with a 2.5" brim, which i like but will be returned due to being too snug. Second, a check cap in wool, flax, and silk:

Love the Barsalino. Looks very good on you.

Looks like you've got a My Father 1922 Le Bijou to go with it? :cool2:

Stetson Real Nutria feather weight c.1930

An interesting lightweight western hat from the early years of the depression - from the dimensions it could pass as an ancestor of the Stratoliner which was to follow a decade later. The nutria felt is somewhat denser and more complex than the first generation Strat, but very light - the hat weighs 2.8 ounces. 2 3/4" brim, 5 1/2" open crown, 1 1/8" ribbon. The two inch wide sweatband is paper thin yet still flexible and showing very little evidence of wear. The hat has hosted moths, but the damage is mostly shallow and on the underside of the brim. I believe this one will clean up and shape nicely. It's a very pleasant wear.

Another great hat, Alan! Love those sweatband imprints. Once you work your shaping magic it will be awesome!

Thanks B... it's a little breadline at the moment but I think it will come around nicely.

+1, that is a real nice one, Alan. Great find!

 

[carouselvic]

I'd wear it.

 

[Rogera]

I'd wear it.

+1! I'd wear that just as it is! That hat has character to spare

Nothing wrong with a breadline, sartorially speaking. Great find, Alan.

Nice find Alan!

 

[Bushman]

Just got my Stetson Chatham, and I'm already loving it. It looks great!



And it looks great on me, if I do say so myself:

 

[RJR]

That does look good,Bushman.

Nice one Bushman! I really like the medium width ribbon on that model. Suits you well.
