    Anyone know anything about this hatmaker Daquino?

    Now things are beginning to make sense to me. I got my Campdraft (taupe fawn) about a month ago. I was surprised at how flat the brim was. I bought a size 59, which was larger on me than I expected. I put in the foam strips that came with the hat, but after a month, the hat now wears snug on my...

    Anyone know anything about this hatmaker Daquino?

    Thanks again for the information. Would you know if D'aquino rabbit fur hats shrink a little like the Akubra hats do? Perry

    Anyone know anything about this hatmaker Daquino?

    When I saw Luisa's photo in the "sage green" thread of the green hat that you posted, I went back and forth looking at Frunobulax's hat and that photo. I wondered if it was the same color but in different lighting. I tend to prefer the "tan" of Frunobulax's hat to the green. This may seem like...

    Thanks for sharing. That's a nice shade of green. It's not quite sage, but a good green.

    For fun, I did some searching, and I found something surprising. Village Hat Shop seems to have a Sunbody fedora style hat for considerably less than for sale at sunbody.com. The crown seems to be 1/4 inch higher at Village Hat Shop, but perhaps that's a typo. The hat in question at Village...

    I'm not sure if this is palm straw, but it's certainly economical and, I think, good looking. Available here: https://www.lehmans.com/product/sunset-straw-hat-pinched-front/ The sweatband may be a concern, but at that price, it wouldn't be too much to correct the issue.

    Movie hats

    Just watched "Pickup on South Street" from 1953. Great "hat" movie. In fact, so good that you can even make out the various types of creases in the hats! Find it here:

    Yes, thank you, I did get your PM. I also read your latest post in the D'aquino thread. Hopefully, you will soon get a shipping date for your hat. I understand about the holidays and what an increase in orders can do. I'm interested in seeing a sample of their green. The Stratoliner is a great...

    Great hats! Thank you for sharing. By the way, I can't view the photos that Brent posted. Can anyone see them?

    Thank you for the encouragement and also posting photos of your green homburg. It's been over a week since I wrote to Luisa. Perhaps I used the wrong link on Etsy. I asked a question about a hat listed on Etsy. I primarily was asking about what color green her hats are and also about a forum...

    Thank you all for posting photos of your sage and "sageish" green hats! I haven't heard anything from Luisa from Daquino Hats. No doubt she is busy and perhaps on vacation at this time. I do hope she responds.

    This is an Akubra Plainsman that I received on Friday. I purchased it on eBay for the opening bid. There was an alligator pin affixed on the front of the crown. One of the first things I did after receiving the hat was to remove the pin. I was the only bidder on the hat, and perhaps it's because...

    Thanks RJR and Eric for posting photos of your hats. Inspiring! By the way, there seems to be no agreed shade of green that is called sage. If you google sage green, you will find a variety of colors from light to dark. Eric, I see you're in the Twin Cities. Around 2000, I had the opportunity...

    Actually, I've already written to her. I asked about the green she offers on some of her hats listed on Etsy--asked her to send an image of the green. I also asked about your hat--sent her a photo of it asking what color it was. I'll update this thread with the information she sends me.

    That is a great looking hat! Thank you for the info and suggestion.

    Please post photos of your sage green hats

    A big thank you to all who have posted photos of their green hats. The dark moss and sage green hats seem to be an almost identical shade of green. I've been reading the thread on DaQuino hats and noticed on Etsy that green is offered. I wonder what shade of green this might be. I'm not at the...
