Thanks. I might try the expensive four way one. I’ll wait till I get the hat and see how bad it is.I do have a hat stretcher. It's a Hat Jack branded 2-way stretcher. It helps if your just trying to get a tad bit extra room. I find it useful in helping me transform a regular oval to a long oval. I've had it in a tight 7 1/8 for a couple of weeks. I'm hoping that with time, the stretch will be permanent.
Do I need this hat?
No.
Did I say I wouldn’t buy anymore hats for myself and only rarely buy more resell hats?
Yes.
Does this particular hat check all my boxes and push all my buttons and make me disregard all the silly promises I’ve made to myself?
Looks like it.
$195 plus shipping is more than I wanted to spend, but heck, I’ll sell one of my other gray or brown hats to make up the payout.
And really, it’s not actually considered buying another hat if you are merely buying one and selling one, right?
Can’t wait to hold it!

Gorgeous Mallory. Wow!
It is in great condition!Despite the size, I came very close to buying this hat just do to the condition.

That’s a real beauty, Nathan.Just the other day, I was talking with @hambone71 about only shopping for grail hats anymore (especially since I just spent a few month’s hat budget on a Gannon). Lo and behold this one fell into my lap.
O.P.S era Knox 20 in bone - exactly what I’ve been looking for.
It is tagged one size too small but for less than $100 it’s close enough to take a gamble on.
The seller does take returns but it’s probably time I invested in a hat stretcher anyway.
Only downside is that now I’m waiting on two hats from the West Coast!

Thanks Blare. Now starts the game of "When is this item going to ship?" Two full days they could've mailed it, but nothing. Then you send a message and no reply. Then you think, "They're gonna cancel the sale - they've realized they undersold it." Such a theater!That’s a real beauty, Nathan.
I saw that one--if it had been my size I'd have jumped. Beautiful, congrats!Do I need this hat?

Honestly, this time I don't mind. I don't want this one coming at the same time as the Gannon - much better to stagger them.Yes, it is a PITA when the seller holds onto the hat a week before getting it shipped!
I’ll make you deal. Next time you see a mint 40s Stetsonian like yours in my size, buy it, send it to me, and I’ll…I saw that one--if it had been my size I'd have jumped. Beautiful, congrats!
Don’t think it will hit its estimated arrival of today being that it is showing in NH... but should arrive soon

CoolI can't remember the last time I bought something on eBay, but I made an offer on this Raw Hide Felts (Byer Rolnick) and it was accepted.
