You have their number Edward, the hat not only looks the part, it does as you intended and tops out your fabulous appearance.

The trousers are a tad high but, being Tina made, they fit perfectly, I just need to slacken off the braces/suspenders. My bespoke Susqhehana tops out the seersucker blazer and all.

Than-you, Sir! Yours is a particularly fine titfer; does it have a model name? I've seen only OTR options from Susqhehana todate, though I gather they are expanding offerings since being taken over by Gamble & ***n.

It looks like Gamble and G*u*n*n are somewhat fazing out the Susquehanna name or just using it to brand certain fedoras, at this point. I ordered from their website a hat that was a Susquehanna and they actually emailed me to ask if it was an issue that it was actually a G&G. I said of course not and I think the hat I received only mentioned Susquehanna (if, at all) on the sweatband. The liner was G&G, if I'm recalling correctly.

Interesting - the opposite tack to what Laird are doing with Christy's. G&G have some nice looking hats on their website.

Having jealousy looked at Robert's posts showing (albeit handmade) Susquehanna and G&G hats, I figured I'd like to see what the two became together since I owned neither. I was very please with the hat I ordered.

Well said Jeff, wear your hat with pride. Susquehana and I were an ocean apart but that never proved an obstacle, their attention to detail and customer service was second to none.
Gamble & Gu-nn are UK based, quite by coincidence I came across them at a very popular vintage festival called: "The Goodwood Revival," it was how I discovered their Susquehana connection. At Goodwood I found out the G & G have continued Susquehana's excellent customer service, I was so glad about that. Customer care is so important to customer retention.

This morning was a three-hat morning. My dog soirée hat was a Stetson ******* with a matching ribbon treatment.

Morning cold brew coffee was under the lid of a Stetson ******* with a contrasting ribbon treatment.

I did a bit of yard trimming under the brim of a Stetson Stratoliner. I steamed more of a tugboat crease into the top. The felt is so malleable the steam was needed to make the crease stay around when getting banged about on branches and stuff.

Cheers to all the posters on this thread! Best, Eric -
