    It is a very dark tan - similar to my Akubra Campdraft in Taupe Fawn - I'm not sure what Stetson called it?

    HATS WITH HISTORY

    Mallory Homburgs - Sen. Guy M. Gillette I recently bought two Homburgs owned by Sen. Gillette [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Gillette], who was in the U.S. Senate in the 1930-40s, and again in the 1950s (also up for auction were his derby and a top hat). The Homburgs are an Adam (which...

    If you are looking at my Avitar, I see what you mean. That particular hat is (was) a 7-1/4 that has been stretched to a 3/8, but it fits pretty well too. It might have been sitting a slight angle when I took that picture.

    This one is actually on my printer - could that be it? :) Actually, I wear a 7-3/8 in most hats, occasionally a 7-1/2, but most are a little too loose. The ones I have seem to fit fine, and are comfortable - might be my poor camera phone photography skills?

    Javier, that's a great hat! My first Borsolino is in the mail and I have very high hopes for it.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Yesterday actually, and my son is wearing his vintage Lucchese with a Fort Worth cattleman bash (it is the only Lucchese hat I've ever come across - apparently they used to make more than just boots - very nice fur felt hat - unknown vintage - 1950s at least). You must start them on thin ribbons...

    Shepler's Stetson Open Road 3X I just got this vintage Stetson Open Road (not marked OR) 3X, made for Shepler's - unknown vintage (1970s maybe?). Overall good condition (but headed out for a cleaning) and a great color. More pics when it comes back home.

    My first Akubra was this exact hat it and is still one of my favorites (I'm up to two now). Congrats!

    The Resistol Roundup

    Thanks - the color is little different after a good cleaning! The original liner is still in it, but the sweatband was in bad shape and was replaced. The sweatband was a dark brown, marked for the store that sold it, and it also marked as a 2X ("XDoubleX") - I think said it was a 3X in another...

    I am very happy with their work. I bought a Dobbs a recently thinking it was a homburg, turned out to be dented derby. I took it to Paris Hatters and it was hard to believe it was the same hat picking it up.

    The Resistol Roundup

    Here is a vintage (Byer-Rolnick) Resistol I won in an auction a couple of weeks ago. The measurements were a little off and it was too small for me - I planned to get it cleaned & sell it, but Abe at Paris Hatters talked me into a stretch and a restoration. Here is end result - cleaned...
