A "touch" too tight?
I'm definitely way-still on learning curve compared to most here but if it were my hat I'd either a) wear the heck out of the thing in hopes It'd open up a little, b) heavy-spritz with distilled water where crown and brim meet, inside and out (dry sweat band afterwards) and...
Thank you, man,
Very cool pics above! We've "all" been spending a lot of time in our home studious I think and except for the occasional wedding job that requires it (most I play do not) I haven't worn a tux since I played the ships and that was another lifetime ago!
Sly's been a great cat ...
Late 40s "San All" 3X, 6 1/2 x 4", 54 block, no taper ; )
Substantial yet luscious felt that reminds me both of an old Nutria western I have and of both my RD Westerns. Wear this around all day then put on an OR? Feels like you're wearing a stingy. Sly's been with us since he was 7 weeks old...
Thank you Fellas.
T Jones, really love what you've been doing with hats, one you just posted is no exception.
That bow vs crease and brim seem like styles we don't often see together but should as it works really nice here!
Seller's using pics from the Goodwill auction he won the day jacket went up for sale here. Style ; )
EWMIC made so many cool jackets virtually none of which fit man. The details are hazy for me now but there was a time, when a "made in america" flag was sewn next to jacket's tag, where they...
Right on fellas' thank you! .. I like this one a lot too.
I have another similar dress Resistol but liner and sweat aren't nearly as elegant.
I'll post some in-the-wild pics soon.
Pretty sure this Borsa is an 80s hat .. it's very light with very thin felt and a 3 1/4" whip stitched brim (still a little damp here). Tagged an 1/8th but easily more a 1/4+. Gonna' get my Santos-Dumont ON this summer!
Coriu, looks 80s to me. I've had my share of Bates including this model in particular. I really like these jackets but personally can't stand kidney panel which is large and thick. I don't ride btw. You can find this jacket but made without panel. If I find one in 42 I'ma buy it ; ) Leather on...
My chance to contribute for first time to this thread.
Tho' I've been on the hunt for a nice red lined western, this Regent turned up first.
Nice light hat that fits really well. I dig contrasting stitching on binding.
Happy New Year Friends!
Between holidays and needing a break from hats it's been a little while ..
These two guys are all that's crossed my path in months. The Resistol Regent came first and as new.
The Royal Deluxe not so much but it's been really fun bringing her back around ; )
Been going...
