    I like the blue color of your hat, everytime I see a blue western style hat I think of the yellow acorn hat band. What type of ribbon is the hat band made of? I have a couple of felts that are khaki green color 120G FEPSA rabbit felts, a two tone hat band might look good on a khaki green felt.

    Thank you Sir. Yes Sir that is always a good feeling and sometimes it just unexpected. I thought that one of my other Indiana Jones hats in gray would sell before the 7 1/8", maybe I should make another 7 1/8" and put on Ebay, I just wish that I had another Dark Gray in 120G FEPSA Beaver to use.

    I haven't done any brim bindings since the GBU Eastwood hat, now that you mentioned it the grey with a black hat band and a black brim binding would look good.
