A Dobbs Key West......4" brim! Guaranteed to keep the sun off me (and anyone standing nearby........ I thought this would make some of you true westerners proud! It looks more white in the photo's but is a nice cream color.......

That pug really fits with the hat. Congratulations on a great hat.

An almost very new Barbisio from 2006. Extremely thin felt, very floppy. No brim binding. Stiched lining like in the good old days [emoji4].

Good to see them both getting some head-time, Steve. They look better on you than they ever did on me.

Stetson Severn heather felt. Made under license in England. I'm a bit unsure about the ribbon to be honest. It may need to be changed at some point. Overwelt brim at 6cm and crown 11 cm at the center dent. The felt has the softness that's common with these heather felts.

Picked this one up yesterday. Wegener Super with Special Finish in mid to dark grey. Raw edge brim at 6cm and crown 10cm at the center dent. I'm not overly fond of Wegener hats, but they do and did produce some very fine hats. I liked the look and colour of this one. The colour is called Dahlem.

I meant to comment earlier Steve.
I think this is one of the nicest shades of darker grey i have seen. The wide ribbon compliments the hat so very well. The textural contrast between the velvety looking felt and sheen of the wide, matching ribbon really works.
This is a grand looking hat. Super Barbisio makes a fine hat. They remind me of Borsalino’s Marque Grand Luxe 5X, which is quite a hat.
Thanks for sharing.

Bandera 3x, a gift from Brent @deadlyhandsome. Before and after photos. I blocked it on a #52 block, and flanged the brim. Thank you Brent! This was a fun project.

I’m glad it turned out; it looks great. You really have a way with these westerns. I hope it wasn’t too big.

I love what you did with this one DD. I've become completely enthralled with this style of western. Ever since I saw your 70's *** Club, I've been plotting on how I can acquire something that is just like it.

Thank you, it fits perfect. Since this hat is from Ft Worth, I can't help but wonder if they sourced their bodies from Byer Rolnick.

This one came in this week. A nice addition to the collection.
Borsalino cocisan in palladio colour. Bound brim at 6,5cm and crown 10cm at the center dent. Lightweight hat at 80 grams in the quality extra extra superiore. Might have been a coffin box hat at one point. It was listed as a woman's hat, but it's not.
Only the oilskin covering of the liner is torn, but other than that it's in excellent condition.

Stetson No. 1 Quality

Nice find. Very uncommon (I was going to say rare but...).

Stefan: Beautiful Borsalino! Good find. Being Borsalino, I know the felt is nice. The trim on this hat rocks.

Thanks, Dennis! The felt is indeed fantastic and I love these ribbed ribbons too.

That's a great versatile hat. Works equally well with a t-shirt and wind-breaker as it does with a jacket and tie. Nice find, Steinbock.
