    Hat Lining Question/Problem

    Lining

    Yeah, really! I just can't figure why people do that, when sewing it in only takes half an hour... I hate to have rests of glue on my blocks after reblocking these hats and it CERTAINLY doesn't increase the value of the hat neither. If you don't want to sew it into your vintage hat, I...

    Another interesting money sponge.

    I like what I see here! Though I'm rather into the classic style Fedora, this would make a very nice variation. Well crafted too. Regards, Marc

    My new "Hughes" hat!!!

    The Aviator Paddy is sporting in these pictures IS an Adventurebilt Deluxe. My good friend and biz partner Steve Delk is making the reg. ABs, while I'm making the Deluxe version. Can't go wrong either way though;) lol Regards, Marc

    My new "Hughes" hat!!!

    Thanks a lot Douglas! With the new sweatbands, I'm pretty much where I always wanted to be. Felt wise, I couldn't be happier for now - even though the seal fur felt project will have to be finished yet, but this is a one or max. two hats project and nothing that I'll ever add to the line as a...

    My new "Hughes" hat!!!

    Well I got a couple of prototypes that sold out like warm chocolate on a winter morning, but I'll DEFINATELY order a full batch at the very beginning of next year. I had the leather tanned on an old fashioned way from a small tannery in Australia and then coated with a thin and invisible coating...

    My new "Hughes" hat!!!

    The close-up picture is really nice Paddy! It gives a nice peak at the vintage reeding tape and the matching color of the goatskin sweatband. Would love to show you the new roohide sweatbands though, but maybe you manage to come on over on a visit next year, when I'm done with renovating the...

    "The Shield" or: yet another AB-Dlx.

    The high on the front and back is 9.2cm (3.622"), with the sides being 9.7cm (3.819"). The brim is 6.5cm all the way arround - but the size is VERY small too (54.8cm head circumference - which is only 21.575"). On a size 7 1/8" that would be a 2 5/8" brim. The ribbon is a 43mm dark brown.

    "The Shield" or: yet another AB-Dlx.

    Just finished this one. Well, almost... the liner and the little bow tie is missing yet, but other than that it's done. Vintage grosgrain ribbon, non dim. cut and a "shieldish" crease on the top. Again, please apology the (missing) quality of the digicam. Thanks to...

    Many thanks and best wishes to Fedora!

    It saddens me, to see one of my best friends leave this place, as I honestly believe that it won't be the same without him! Steve has been one of the rare people spilling out each and every bean when asked so as well as his opinion without being asked ;) He has character in a world where very...

    NEW ADVENTUREBILT DELUXE

    Thanks for the extremely nice words everybody :) As I wrote to Douglas yesterday, that's what keeps me going and I must admit, that it makes me quite proud to have a customer with Douglas' knowledge on hats and being able to please him! The matching band that you see on this particular hat, is...

    Most unusual felt

    [huh] I don't know! That's never been my interest and before I don't have 50 people willing to buy one, it'll stay that way... Regards, Marc

    Most unusual felt

    Reminds me of the new rawbodies I just got in. I'm serious and objective as I can be: this felt is just soooooo nice and I can't thank my felter enough for going VARIOUS extra miles. Regards, Marc P.S.: I'm well aware, that this sounds like the biggest self promotion ever. I swear that...
