Thanks. Fixed.

Yours?

 

[carouselvic]

No, but a very interesting hat for sure.

That could actually be a bowler as claimed.

 

[Lefty]

Yeah, I'm willing to go either way on that one from the photos.

Lefty, that Stetson with the cloth sweat may be a rollable. I noticed it did not have a liner in it.

I'm with Feltfan, most definitely a Derby.

Meant to add that what is interesting to me is that I believe it
is a bowler because of the bow design. That angled, asymmetrical, raw-edged
bow is characteristic of bowlers. Hadn't really thought about it much before.

Yep, great hat! I will be competing with these guys soon...

Come on board, my good man Scott! It's worth a little pain, really - I went through the exactly same procedure, and in the end it saved me a lot of money...

Looks like you wanted that Portis more than I did, rlk .

Here is my first ever eBay felt, Royal Stetson, also my first ever bi-tone trim. I was pleasantly surprised that it didn't go significantly higher. I hope the crease isn't too stuck.

That looks like a nice one, sir. That is a rich color and the felt looks tactile-tempting. Nice buy.

My name is Bond, Dreispitz Bond!

Will post pics, once it is here. Looks like a nice Cavanagh Edge, though.

I have a close-up of the bow/wind trolley, if you are interested in an advance peek.

Nice. Larger hats command larger prices. There just aren't that many larger hats like that out there---for sale.
