Here is my recently aquired Black Sheep. The color is hard to capture. It kind of looks like a glass of bugandy held up to the sun. There are maroons, reds, and even a hint of purple.

Thanks for the nice comments everybody.

Nice looking project David, Bob's Eggplant is a fantastic color and the pleated ribbon looks boss.

Congrats on the nice Oxblood(?) Tom, another great color.

Mikespens: what is the brim size and crown height on your milan?

Brim is 2.5" and crown is 4" in front and 3 5/8" in back. Bob put a nice 4" bump in the center too.

Specs please? Brim width, edge treatment, crown height, ribbon color & width????

Hi Tom~
The hat has a 4 7/8" to 3 1/2" crown as bashed (very steep rake imho). The 3" brim has a triple stitched edge. The 1" ribbon is black, although Bob sugeested a blue ribbon, which would look good as well.
Hope this helps...
Best,
Tom

Thanks for the details Tom.
That is a high front peak & rake. Like the sound of the edge treatment too.
Sweet lid there...

David I saw your unfinished lid at Bob's and the felt is gorgeous. That's one stacked crown too! Can't wait to see what you do with it.
