How high is the crown of that hat? It seems quite tall, especially with so pronounced a crease.

The angle of the picture is alittle decieving. I haven't measured the crown height but it is about 4 3/4" or 5". That's the height of most of my hats.

Milan Pics

I just put myself in Art's que for a straw, but I haven't decided yet whether to get a monte or his new milans. I'd appreciate pics of anybody who is getting one of the new milans. I'm sure others would like to see them as well.

Thanks.

PS - DGuy, the oxblood looks great!

That is a great looking hat, Bart! The bound brim really does it well I think! Art is amazing!

Thanks Wade. Art did a great job on this one. Dimensionally I think he has me dialed in and his ribbons have subtle character that is hard to capture in a picture.

That is a really desirable hat. I am praying hard that my business ventures bring in the spondulicks so I can order something special from the man with the talent.

Page 129 and 130, incl Art`s comments on the Milans - I can only strongly recommend them.

Thanks for the complements on the oxblood, the only thing it`s not mine! :( :eek:

Just for the record, here is a close-up of the new braid...very fine, and resembles the finely braided straws and horse-hairs of the past...

Wow, Wilbur! You definitely give that lid what it needs. :eusa_clap

Methinks Templeton is quite jealous!
