Drinks; sure, as an appetizer


Thank you, Joe.


Fantastic hats, all of them!

Thanks sir. As usual your hat shares I appreciate.

The hats are outstanding and so is that Filson Packer!

Thanks for the hat and jacket compliments. Cheers to you Bob.

Pre-Stingymas day five.
Following yesterday’s bowler with another one that came to me from Stefan. This jet black Tirard Ragondia (nutria) has a deceptively small 5cm brim.
I planned to get a decent photo when I got home from work. Unfortunately, I forgot, so the photos were taken after I got changed into my home wear. View attachment 470243 View attachment 470244 View attachment 470245 View attachment 470246

Your stingy collection has grown quite nicely

How’s the quality with 7x CB compared to others you have?

Quality is great but that question is too broad with too many variables to answer w/o writing a book. Perhaps the expert will weigh in. Opinions in regards to your question are scattered all across the hat threads, including some of my own. A google search will reveal many of them. As Vic said too, I'm a fan of the 7X CB's as well as 100's. I have a few of ea.

I think we need to define a western, too. When I think of Stetson westerns, I think of all those styles in the Miller-Stockman catalog. Laloos and BOPs, and the like. The poster seems to be referring specifically to OR-type hats, though maybe I'm misinterpreting.

Limping through, with the help of that bowler, to the one week mark!
Still, not bad for someone who doesn’t consider himself a stingy brim guy.

Ooh-la-la! I'm in love with green hats and they don't come more stylish or covet desirable than that Shudde Bros. Being from the other side of the pond, Shudde Bros was new to me, I just had to check it out. Do you know? It could be an expensive investigation. I fell in love with a Stetson Panama.

But at $205 it does water the eyes a tad, maybe if I think of it in £ Stirling at £168 it might sound cheaper.

As for Wolfbrae, haven't I seen them somewhere before?

Any older Stetson that’s not a fedora or short brimmed hat.

And I guess I’m meaning if anyone has both from the same era, which one feels to have the better quality felt

I understand what you mean in regards to those hats. Many of the models could be had No. 1 Quality thru 100. Its just hard to compare OR's, especially if you include the dress weights from the same era.

They've certainly gotten their mileage out of the model!

Day six of pre-Stingymas and I’m in my Lagomarsino Nutria. Another 5cm brim.

Tomorrow will be the end of my pre-Stingymas.
I’m sure Joe @Blare will raise the bar several levels when the real event starts in a few days.
