Thanks Eric, I am sure the wait time will pass quickly. I eagerly await NHD :). Again, the photos of your Gannon are outstanding. The colors of the liner and sweatband really work well together.

I received my reply from Michael. I’m in his system for my custom. It will be a couple of months of waiting, but I’m sure it will be well worth it in the end.

I like it! That’s a great color. Naomi and Trudi have a wonderful touch of class with their handwritten personalized notes. That’s one of the reasons I’ve been a repeat customer. Wear your Fedora in good health. Stay safe.

I sent an email to Michael this past Monday about moving forward with my felt choice. I have not received a response, hopefully I’ll hear something soon. I’m sure he’s probably busy with other customers.

The information you seek could be listed in the thread Akubra Overload: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/akubra-overload.33000/
It’s also helpful to type your question in google and follow it with Fedora Lounge. I have found that that way of searching works better than the search feature...
Eric your Gannon family tree picture helped me tremendously. I studied the colors carefully. Your hats are amazing and your photography captures each hat in spectacular fashion. I’ve sent my reply email to Michael with my color choice. Now I have to decide on the ribbon and binding color. I...
I received my Gannon felt samples from Michael today. I am so glad that I asked for them. I was able to compare each sample to the Akubra’s and Stetson’s I currently own. I have narrowed my choices, Steel and Camel. Granite and Sahara are great colors, but there is just a slight difference...
Thank you for the information on the felt and pouncing. That will help me decide when the samples arrive.
I definitely see how a ribbon can change the color of a hat. Until lately, I never gave it much thought.
The pictures are a great reference for me. Pictures and the felt samples should...
Forgive me, I’m not versed in the different felt suppliers. Does Gannon use Winchester felts? My Gannon so far has definitely been a learning process. Thanks for bearing with me and my questions. :)
Michael told me the hat I posted earlier is Charcoal. I like it, so he’s including a sample of it...
Michael is going to send felt samples. I have asked for Granite, Steel, Camel, and Sahara. Here is the type of hat I have in mind. It was posted earlier in this thread, does anyone have any idea of the color combination or the owner?
If anyone has a Granite and Steel Gannon’s can you post...
Thanks Brent. I’ve asked Michael about color swatches, so I’ll have to see what he says in his reply. I think the Sahara is a nice color, but I feel it might be to similar to my Akubra fawns.
That’s a beautiful hat and ribbon combination. The colors work well together. When I ordered my Acorn...
I have been in touch with Michael about commissioning a mid to thin ribbon fedora. I narrowed my color choices down to Camel and Granite. After examining many pictures on this thread I can’t seem to find a picture of a Camel Gannon. If anyone has a Camel Gannon, can you please post a picture? I...
Wonderful hat Brent. I like the color. I sent an email to Michael earlier this afternoon. I’m looking forward to Michael’s reply. Wear your hat in good health.

Thanks Brent. I know we discussed vintage, but I’m with you on my hat size, 7 5/8 or 61. That size narrows the vintage field considerably. :) I am strongly considering having a custom Playboy or Stratoliner style hat commissioned by M.C. Gannon. I need to reach out to him via email and see what...
Thanks for the reply Jared.
Thanks Brent. I have thought many times of adding a Caribou Stratoliner to my hat collection. I am pleased with the Royal quality and I don’t have my Hufvud custom yet, it’s still a couple of months out. I’m thinking, without having a high quality hat in hand, I...
