Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame
OG, Sahara with the copper ribbon look fantastic. I was waffling between Pecan and Sahara. I choose Pecan because I wanted something darker for this fall. If it was earlier in the year I certainly would have chosen Sahara. I'll save that color for next time. Your beautiful images confirm... -

Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame
Indeed 1 centimeter is quite a difference. When the conformer and tape measure were mailed to me, I spent a good hour getting the conformer just right. Exactly where my sweatband rests. 1 finger above my eyebrows and 1 finger above the ears. In regards to the actual measurement, both my wife... -

After the long wait, filled with anticipation, the day finally arrived!!! 5.5 inch crown, 2 3/8 underwelt brim, 14L ribbon, Pecan in color. The color and craftsmanship are absolutely beautiful! It is more than I had anticipated or hoped for. Unfortunately no mug shot because the hat... -

How High Should a Hat Sit?
In my quest to rekindle old threads instead of creating new threads, this one has some merit. I am trying to decide on crown height. I am somewhat conscious regarding to much crown height. However, to little crown height has much head pushing back on the center crease. Perhaps I should go... -

Eric, Who blocked this toquilla straw that you got from Panama Bob? As another bald man in the Twin Cities, I feel your frustration regarding the flying pests! -

Outstanding cover Clossonrr! I just sent my conformer back but my lack of patience found me purchasing a Fed IV. I'm sure the VS will be worth the wait. I agree that the images look more brown. i'm looking at my granite felt sample and see 2 completely different colors. Darn computer... -

fur felt in hot weather?
DJH, Sharp looking VS! I'm in the process of my first VS creation and I'm leaning towards a lighter felt for summer. I like the idea of the vent design quite a lot. However, I am one to sweat quite a bit regardless of temperature so I'm somewhat concerned about a felt sans liner. I'll talk... -

fur felt in hot weather?
Good point daizawaguy. It's not always the heat but the humidity! Here in the upper midwest it rarely gets above 100 F but the dew point often climbs above 70 F. That's when I really start sweating! A straw isnt going to save me then. Also, when the dew point is that high, it's only a... -

ggmagic, I could have used that hat today! I went for a nice walk around the lake with my tightly woven panama and I couldn't get a breeze to cool me off. I actually ended up holding my hat for much of the walk just to cool my head! Was this a Panama Bob hat that Art blocked? Please give us... -

Panama Hat Thread
Sad indeed. I've been reading many threads trying to get "caught up" on multiple topics. His words remain, but his images are sorely missed..... -

It would interesting to see if there is an increase in "dualist" orders in the near future. It has certainly earned a spot on my wish list! I only own a few hats and my wish list is quite extensive but that's beside the point. ;-) -

Let the Process Begin!!! Just sent the VS conformer back to OR in the mail! Thanks to all who have posted their handsome works of Art on here for us to view. It certainly helps us new comers start in the right direction!! -

Stetson Pinnacle 100% Beaver black 7 5/8 custom olive ribbon work & edge binding
I've viewed these images from multiple monitors. Could this possibly be the caribou color instead of black? When I view other images of black Stetson Pinnacle's, they seem much deeper and darker black. Perhaps it is the custom ribbon and trim that lighten things up slightly.- Mitral
