Quite the expensive stingy, super high quality.

On the fourth day of Stingymas, I chose one of my European slim brims. This Borsalino has all the classic lines of a true stingy. The color is Mirtillo (Blueberry) and the felt it just crazy nice on this one. This is one of my favorite slim brims.

Quite the expensive stingy, super high quality.

It looks like someone left it sitting in a window from the way the ribbon - and felt - is faded. Underneath the ribbon the felt is a dark charcoal in color.

On the Fourth Day of StingyMas...

Stingy Strat!?!?! I don’t suppose this 40s to early 50s Stetson Stratoliner started its life as a stingy but somewhere along the way it likely got a trim to a nice tight two inches. I might be disappointing... but it really makes for an awesomely proportioned grab and go light weight stingy with an unusual for short brim thin ribbon.

Love that ribbon. Cool one!

Thanks Mike!

Yesterday Dobbs hats made their presence known, today it's Knox, so...

Initially I thought this hat would look good with a taller than usual (for me, that is) crown with a good amount of rake, but changed my mind after seeing these photos and I re-creased the crown lower in front. Unfortunately, I haven't taken new photos yet. I'm also not a long oval, but the hat fits my regular oval head comfortably.

Thanks! I like it, and it's in great condition for however old it is. Now that I'm wearing stingy brims it's a regular part of my rotation. I'm still trying to get used to the back bow though.

That crown profile looks more 1930s than 1960s. I really like this hat, and you wear it well.

1930 to 1960...amazing how much changed in those 30 years!
