Stetson 7X CB. My first attempt at a Bowen crease. Have to have a better look at his again. I will improve it when I get home.

Well look at you! Some wonderful unlined examples here. They are pristine, where did they come from? Nice haul Max.

Phoenix Hat Company in black cherry. More in the Phoenix thread. I love this hat!

I'm liking this newer black cherry more and more. Since the old Winchester "red" black cherry seems to be a thing of the past, I might have to give this current rendition a try. Very nice Brent.

You never know what it will do over time. On my 1989 Rand the ribbon hasn't changed all that much but the binding has.

This is one fine looking hat Jack. I like the "patina", Jim is right.

Great looking "swoop" on this one Max. I like it.

Wow, what a parade of hats today guys. Makes me hungry...

I don't know if I am supposed to say.

The colors are what nails it. I think the patina on the grosgrain probably makes it look even nicer than when it was new.

I agree. Certain clothing items--boots, leather jackets, and some hats--just look better with a little age on 'em, and Hurricane Jack's new Stetson is a prime example.

We have talked and we often talk about hats with short brim or trilby, or fashion hats, in sixties and seventies, when thinning brim had become a way to be less "classic". I often read criticism and see little consideration for the ì hats of "thin" brim that marked an era. So I made a census of mine, happened in my hands, especially with exchanges or lots of hats and I will give them a few episodes in the presentation of the new hats.
I know that there is an audience that loves them and for them I spend as much as I have in the closets

Borsalino Marca Renna size 6 1/2 with a very high standards finishes

The color is "Banana" and the felt is finished with a light hair

The dimensions are as follows: 4.5 cm brim. crown at 11 cm. and ribbon at 4 cm.
The felt is soft, malleable and the color is enchanting and rare in my find of Borsalino hats

As many tilbies or short brim hats the best way to see them is to wear them with the right spirit

For those interested in this or the others that follow, send me a PM.
These are hats that for various reasons do not stand on my head. This is wide.
Honor and praise to the trilby who made, in spite of themselves and the little love received, the history of hats fashion.

The same goes for this one. Excellent deep brown shade.

New Mac Lachlan Homburg. Still have to brush and steam it when I get back home.

That is some homburg you scored there, Max. Superb.

Thank you, Stefan. Don't think I will need any more Homburgs after this one.

Need? What does “need” have to do with it?

LIKE to ALL your fine felt finds, Max!! Now that you've had some opportunity to hold and feel so many varied felts, what can you say about the "hand," or feel of them? Especially the Macs, a nd that 7X, of course...

Holy moly, Max. looks like you're out to start a hat museum of your own. No vintage hat is safe anymore. The Mac lachlan is a great piece, but I have to give it to the Borsalino nutria though (what can I say? I'm a fan of the brand).

The best is the 7X. Marvelous. The Marque Grand Luxes are great, too. The Mac Lachlans are thick, soft, supple, really nice, but not as nice as those two.
Brent was right in that you get spoiled if you feel the best.
It is curious... I never felt as rich as I do now that I have all these hats. I keep telling myself that every time I pay my credit card bills.
I still want a Flagship, a Turf Club, a Shore Club, a nice *** Club, a couple of Forties, maybe another Whippet, and some of those nice Italian wider-brimmed hats Daniele is finding for me, and then I will consider my collection complete, unless something really special comes along. Maybe an extra-nice Sisal.
Luckily, I am not especially attracted to straws. I already have a couple, and don't feel like I want more. A guy could go broke with those.
