    Great New Stetson. Whoa $360 for a Stetson BENCHMARK. Must be somthing special! Wait...WHAT?

    Not according to the clueless customer services at Stetson. My reply, received from Stetson, yesterday: "Hello, This measurement does not mean that it size of the brim may vary from piece to piece. it means that the size of the brim varies around the hat. In the front it is longer, the 2...

    My missive to Hatco: Wait... so you want me to buy a special edition $360 hat and the brim may vary from 2 1/8" - 2 1/2", is THAT what you're saying here? Because if I read that right then you people are right out of you minds, so completely out of touch with your consumers it is LAUGHABLE...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    I just roped this 'un right out of the chute, must've just been listed all of 10 seconds. Anyone care to speculate as to the model? The brim looks too wide to be a Bellagio, Dante or a Como, so I am guessing it's a Verdi. I thought to remove that tacky ribbon and replace it with something...

    Hats with soft or supple brims... who makes them?

    Folder w/ a 3" brim, that's a tough one. Though DAVID MORGAN says his Akubra Traveller sports a 3" brim. Good luck!

    New Open Crown Stetsonian for less than $175 shipped

    My pleasure. I have not yet received the Stetsonian and all I have is the old Fed III, In my experience an Akubra is hard to beat, this Stetson may be trimmed a bit fancier, but pound for pound nothing beats an Akubra.

    MID-CENTURY BORSALINO LIGHT WEIGHT FOLDER 58~7 1/4 ~5 1/2 9++ of 10~GR8 condition! 52 grams!

    My Auction Unbelievable Felt! I'd love to keep it, a generous 7 1/4, but it just doesn't fit, time for it to go to someone it will. It is, by far, the lightest hat I have ever seen, much less owned. For someone with the right sized coconut, this could approach a "Holy Grail", imo.

    stetson x buck mason

    All too low crowned for me, and the Hollidays have far too much brim for me. Interesting find tho'.
