I like that one too. I have a Miller Hats (made by Biltmore) pork pie in the same color, and it looks exactly like that, minus the pin and feather. It's one of my favorites.- Mr E Train

That looks amazing, MW. It's a much finer weave, but it is as stiff as a regular boater?- Mr E Train

Capello and Borsalino hats
What makes you say that, Steven, other than the obviously American (or English) size tags, "Royal Beaver" designation and "Freed Hat Company" copyright? Well, as I write that, I can see what you're saying. Why would "Francato Cappello" be a copyright of Freed Hat Company if it's an Italian hat...- Mr E Train

Dr. Who?
I understand what you're saying, and I agree that is more appropriate to spell it "Doctor Who," but I think of "Dr." as being an abbreviation for what in this case is used as a proper name, "Doctor," much in the same way that "Geo." is sometimes used as an abbreviation for "George."- Mr E Train

Capello and Borsalino hats
I got this Francato Cappello fedora on eBay recently. I'm thinking it might be late 50's or early 60's. It's a very well made hat with excellent felt. I liked the shape of the Francato block, but with the 2 inch brim the hat looked out of proportion to me, which isn't unusual...- Mr E Train

Nah, that totally fits Barney Fife's off-hours style. Of course, Barney always had a bit of a wild streak.- Mr E Train

Looks cool (literally and figuratively)! lol Not a whole lot of sun protection there, though. Is that the hatband that came with it or a later add-on? It looks really good.- Mr E Train

Show us your droopers and wobbly brims
Ernest, I've never seen a Scala boater with a straight brim, not once. Ever tried ironing it on a flat surface with a steam iron? Just put a handkerchief or dishcloth in between to keep from scorching it.- Mr E Train

Akubra Campdraft
Everything Australian has updated their website. If you're anything other than a size 62, step up and get your Bluegrass Green Campdrafts. I've got my size 62 preordered, so that'll be my Christmas present to myself. Hopefully the exchange rate will be favorable then.- Mr E Train
