Thanks, RBH. Wish it was warm enough here to wear something like your beautiful straw Whippet, but instead we are getting another foot of the white stuff :smow: Wow, thank you billyspew, what a small world! Mickey's AND a Whippet, too! Perhaps not so unusual back in the day, but a rarity... -

Wore my Bluegrass Stetson Whippet all weekend. Orchestra Hall, Minneapolis. Just prior to the Minnesota Orchestra's magnificent concert last night. The Brahms 4th was sublime. A late-night bite after the concert, at St. Paul's historic Mickey's Diner. -

Jimmy: Thanks! :) Dan: Thank you for your candor, I appreciate it. :) I agree that the GP is a flamboyant hat that not everyone will have a fondness for. In its defense, however, I have to say that it is a bold design which was executed well in terms of high grade felt and finish. Dobbs... -

Nice hat, hutch. You may want to have a look at the Ohio-The-Heart-and-Hat-of-it-all! thread, and post your hat there. Quite a few Ohioans here in the lounge. No doubt someone else has a lid from the same hatter. I seem to recall seeing a lid with this hatter's logo somewhere... Welcome... -

Shantung "straw" hats
Many well taken viewpoints on the subject, and I will share my thoughts also. As with many other natural and man-made fibers used in hatmaking, the term Shantung has been misused, and one could argue mis-represented, in the marketing of such hats. Just as with other fibers, I believe... -
