Thank you for the kind words Gents and I'm so glad you liked it Don. This one was a little "outside the box" for me so I always am unsure of the response.

Trust me, Art - my response is 100% A+ !!!
and thanks, OG! That photo you recently posted outside with the onion rings (can't remember the thread) reminded me of the regret I had in never being able to connect up with you while I was in Pittsburgh a couple of years ago. I mentally picture a couple of gray-hairs with their panamas, dining al-fresco, oblivious to the "ballcaps" around us. Hope to get back there possibly later this summer. I'll let you know if I'll be able to get some free time to meet-up.

VS milan with optimo crown
Just received this beautiful hat.
This is a design (milan straw with optimo crown) that I have had in my head for a few years. It's an old-fashioned design, but not a well known one, so it evokes a sense of the past without seeming to belong to an identifiable period. It seems both old and new. I think the hats posted above by dnjan and smoothsailor have a similar quality.
The ribbon is quite special. Art said he was worried that it might be too much for me, and if he had described it, I might have said that it sounded nice but maybe too flashy. Actually it's perfect. The variations in texture and pattern keep things interesting, and the color keeps things plain, so the effect is understated in a way that suits me very well.
Also it fits like a dream. Thank you Art!

Thank you for posting this Denton, it has been a question before about the optimo crease in a Milan and how it would look.
Wow, amazing! Denton, that ribbon works so fantastic on that hat, and what a great idea of having Art Fawcett make a Milan with a Optimo crease! Unless someone else has one made, I would about bet you have a one-of-a-kind hat that no one else will ever have! I am positive you will stir up some imaginative work for Mr. Fawcett to do for many others.
