Mike great looking Hitchhiker! I am wearing my Hiltchhiker today great hat I wear it a lot!

 

[53Effie]

Thanks again everyone. Tom, mine is getting a lot of wear too. It's just a very comfortable hat.

 

[Duper]

Here's a shot of my VS Hitchhiker that Art made for me several months back. Since I live close by, I was able to go for an in-person fitting. That was lots of fun and the hat is great. I'm really enjoying it.

Very nice. Dd you go with the full size brim or is it slightly reduced?

 

[53Effie]

Hello Duper. You are correct. It is slightly reduced. I really like wider brims, but I'm not so sure they look good on me. That is one reason I'm interested in the Campdraft you are working on.

 

[Blewbyou]

Here is my new VS Duelist. I had Art make one for an upcoming cruise. I gave Art a few ideas as to what and who I am with a general idea of what I was looking for and left the rest to him. The brim is Mojave and the crown is an ivory color. Art if I have my colors wrong please correct me. Not sure on straw colors.
Please excuse the pic my wife took it. Cameras to her.............like krytonite to superman.:eusa_doh:

Congrats Blewbyou but you need to post some closeups of that puppy. Looks like one of the more subtle Duelist Art has produced and what the heck does the bow look like?

 

[Blewbyou]

Thanks mikespens.Some closeups

Blewbyyou !
im blown away !

[mikespens]

Thanks for the pixs Blewbyou, totally sweet and I really like the subtleness of the color blend and the ribbon is perfect pulling the felt and straw together. Congrats to you and Art, sublime!

Che, I wish I could get one of every of Art's hats I see on here I like but unlike you I can't! Enjoyed your video for Art on the Bluesman thread, nice to hear your voice to go along with your Lounge persona. What a wedding!

 

[The Wiser Hatter]

[Art Fawcett]

It actually is a cuenca Ed, not a milan but I can see why you would think that.

 

[Blewbyou]

Thanks for the clarification Art.

 

[The Wiser Hatter]

Thanks for clearing up Art.

 

[seabass]

[Kkaderly]

WOW! I love the Duelists!!!!! Blew that is one great vacation hat!!

Oh no!!! I am getting a bad case of the wants every time I see a Duelist

 

[Kkaderly]

Quick question for you guys that own a Duelist. I live in the south so we have lots of hot weather and I wear Monti all summer. I love the lightness and how they breath. How does the Duelist compare??

thx
KK

 

[Art Fawcett]

Hi KK, I don't want to ruin anything but next year I'm hoping to make a version semi calado. Talk about breathing!!
