    Cappellificio Cervo - Opinions?

    I can understand how my words can be misinterpreted. Emotion, sineity and deliver are hard to convey over the internet. You have obviously already formed an opinion of me and thus you are reading that into my posts. Art, Besdor, and Douglas have all provided me with invaluable information. I...

    I took a chance on this Stetson from OFAS Its just a tad large ad 7 & 5/8 but i really liked the lines. the seller claims it's about 15 years old. placing its purchase around the late 1980's or early 1990's The brim looks very flat to me. that might be a sign of poor storage? or maybe it...

    The sweatband. A little stitching holds the overlap together and it looks like there are small stitches tacking it in at 4 points but for the most part the sweatband is holding it in place.

    There is no glue holding the liner of my Stetson downs in. I have no clue how it will hold up in the rain. It it becomes unavoidable and the hat gets wet i will be sure and post my findings.

    I like a stiff hat... and how do you set your "standards"? I have a new Optimo on order and this would esily be 1/2 the cost. 200% more is hardly a "little" in my book.
