I'm a 61 (typically a 60) and I'm enjoying my BGGCD. Though it took Sam 3 1/2 months to get me the hat, it was well worth the wait.

This morning during our short lived snow/rain shower.

No one has mentioned the Stylemaster? My criteria for a hat has become 2.5 brim, fedora(not western) looking, I do not mind the Indy look my first real hat was and is a wool Indy still my go to rain hat. I am looking for a Fed lV but have picked up two Stylemasters in the last 2 months 1 from a lounger and 1 on ebay both under $100. Size wise I wear a 7 3/8/59 but the black Stylemaster was a 60 so it just sits a little lower on my head.
