Thanks, fellas. It’s not exactly as I envisioned it, but it’s close. I hope to have it back the middle of next week. Fingers crossed!

I'm waiting for my very first Borsalino to arrive. At least I think it's a Borsalino; that's what the faded logo on the sweatband says. Fished out of the Bay of E, I'm kinda' hoping the backward crease doesn't mean the felt is thinning at the pinch. On the other hand, I like a good beater hat, so maybe this'll be my first for that as well. 
Looks black in photos but supposed to be dark brown, and the crown "ribbon" has a slightly coarse weave that looks like it was cut from a yellowed and dirty flour sack. So, I'll see when it arrives; I liked it enough to not pass it up.

Ahh, the rare and highly desirable yellowed and dirty flour sack ribbon. Very avant-garde.

Here's one of the listing photos:
Probably not an actual flour sack, not macramé, but certainly not Grosgrain either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

He’s management and logistics. Some other elf must have been responsible for Brent’s awesome new hat!

Looks like Michael was putting in some overtime to get things out before the holiday. Scheduled to arrive today.

The wait continues! The hat arrived but was pulled out of my sweaty mitts unopened to be wrapped and placed under the tree. It will make Christmas all the merrier.
Happy holidays to you all and STAY SAFE!
