Great haul! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap Can you give a size breakdown?

Milwaukee and Wisconsin in general is a vintage hat gold mine. :eusa_clap


Sure, L to R: Mora derby (very lightweight) 7 1/4, Kevin McAndrew Imported Picot 7 1/4, Marathon 7 1/4, Dobbs 7 1/8, Keith Milanette 6 7/8 (bought for great pug); boater in the rear is a deadstock mint Resistol Continental in a whopping 7 1/2.


Oh BTW, Wisconsin is very bad and dangerous. Smells bad too. No hats here.....

Thinking of maybe adding a ribbon, maybe not.

Also, not really a new hat, but new life in a hat, my conversion that I worked out over the weekend.

Thanks JTL. Its a Marathon with a very cool 6 cord medium height ribbon and 4 cord brim binding. Needs a little cleanup.

That is a great catch, Buler! Very nice Marathon and the ribbon is really an eye-catcher.

New panamabob hat just in time for summer!

I posted this in the panama canal also but thought I would through it in here also!

Just got my new Montecristi hat from Robert!!! I opened up the box and "WOW" what a great hat!!! Really a lot nicer than I expected ! I have attached some photos but I took them with my phone so they aren't great but the color is a nice cream and the wpsi looks to be 250-289 ... much better then what I thought I could afford!

I love it! Makes me look like I should be drinking something with a tiny umbrella in it!

Arrived today - color is much lighter than the listing suggested, closer to a light tan or silver belly. Very clean, might need a brief dip in some fresh camp fuel and a soak in Woolite for the liner.

Brim is 2.75", open crown depth is 5.5", 4.5" as bashed.

I think that you wear a hat with more style than anyone on the Lounge. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

That's very kind, but I think a lot of guys sport their lids with panache around here - Mario/JTL/YOU and a bunch more come to mind.
