Ordered two for my bud Reddog Friday, they were here Monday. Nice hats.

I was thinkin way too big but, I sent a note w/ the order requesting small in head size and wide in the brim. Got exactly what I asked for. And Reddog gave me the Llano for my birthday. TOO NICE!

Got it home, put a nice tight creased pinch on it, brought the 3 1/4" brim down all round. Removed the ribbon and replaced it w/ my favorite interchangable thin belt band to solve the sizing problem and VOI LA... instant favorite new hat. And one of the nicest birthday presents I've had in years.

Gotta start a Brotherhood of the thin belt. :D Reddog's lovin his too. We'll probably end up at the Goodwill lookin for thin belts when he see's mine again. :cool:

Hey Flieger, we love photos around this joint... will you be able to show us a few? :D

Oopps! sorry about that, RBH. I'm usually quite liberal with photos here on FL... :eek:

Problem is I can't get to my Photobucket account at the moment... as soon as it works there'll be photos again. :)

Looking forward to receiving my hat especially after reading all of these posts. Once it's ready to wear I'll post some pictures.

Man, this hat is soooo different from my Pachacuti Brisa. It feels much more "distinct". The Pachacuti is like a wet rag on top of my head in comparison.

Brim is 65-70mm (haven't learned fractions of inches yet)
Crown is 120mm.

REALLY LOVING IT! :D
