Dieter, Thanks! It hasn't arrived yet (DE eBay photos) so hard to say. I have an older JHS Elastic (doen't look anything like this one) that isn't very elastic.
this deal included me promising my wife that this was it.....the last hat purchase........Tracy
You guys realize you are enablers......or pushers....I don't know, something......all I know is I only thought I might enjoy wearing a hat until I joined this forum......now umpteen hats later.......well I'm blaming you!

Wow that's a great looking hat! Please post more pics when it arrives, also the brim width. I may have just spotted what I want built as my first custom! (Are any Custo Hatters working with lightweight felts?).Ok...I confess it was I. I know it is a little underhanded, but I've been looking for a Cross Country for some time....something around a size 7....something in really nice shape.....and the color was great as well. I only hope the mothing is not too bad....matter of fact, I'm going to practice the "fill" method on an old moth eaten Playboy.
If it makes any difference....this deal included me promising my wife that this was it.....the last hat purchase........of course I forgot to mention the Champ "Featherweight" I had purchased a couple of days earlier!! I hope they both get in today.....I'll tell her the "Cross" shipped in one box, and the "Country" shipped in the other!
I really do apologize to anyone who I may have upset making this deal.......

I'd recognize that arm anywhere. That's a Lounge hat.
That's a gorgeous hat, and a great price. Congrats!That yard, too, is eerily familiar lol.
We are a SUPPORT group.... just what the heck we support each other at is hard to pin down....mostly it is acquiring more & more hats...that does require circulation of hats among the group....we accept the assigned blame!!!
