Very nice Bill. That ribbon is killer. I'm definitely going to have to put a Panama from Northwest on my ever growing wanted hats list. You advertise very well.

Great question. I have found Mike to be most generous and he includes a lot of extras in his quoted price that other hatters charge out as extras.I love this hat, Bill. Is it crass to ask what such a hat costs? I know his Panama hats start at $185, but this certainly isn’t a starting price hat!
He charges $300 for these. He calls them fancy weaves.I love this hat, Bill. Is it crass to ask what such a hat costs? I know his Panama hats start at $185, but this certainly isn’t a starting price hat!

Looks just like the one I have. You will like this hat, I know I love mine!Mike just sent me this pic of my new Panama View attachment 244664
Gotta get me one of those fancy weaves.He charges $300 for these. He calls them fancy weaves.
The hat is on its way...we have had a terrible spring and an equally bad beginning to summer so I hope to get sun sometime soon so I can wear the damn thing seeing as I cannot travel south to find the sun.Looks just like the one I have. You will like this hat, I know I love mine!

I really like this one. The ideas keep on flowing!Mike just sent me this pic of my new Panama View attachment 244664
I have yet to get a Panama wet in the rain BUT I do sweat and on many occasions have sweated through the leather, through the straw and drenched the ribbon. I now have ribbons with visible sweat stains on them but never has the colour bled back into the straw.HI
I don't commonly wear panama's in the rain, but will that ribbon stain the hat?
Thanks
Red would be worse as it would turn the hat pink.....like my underwear washed with red socks.Thanks, I have several tan felts that I've sweat through. I am keeping my first bone colored Buckaroo Hat more pristine that the other hats I own. I was thinking that blue and white would be an annoying combination.

Just wearing such a fine hat will bring sunshine into your life.The hat is on its way...we have had a terrible spring and an equally bad beginning to summer so I hope to get sun sometime soon so I can wear the damn thing seeing as I cannot travel south to find the sun.
Hi, BB. On my screen both your and Jonesy's ribbons look blue, which is a color I like for a Panama. Are they blue or black?Mike just sent me this pic of my new Panama View attachment 244664
Mine is what Mike calls a bright navy blue. I initially wanted a French or Grey blue but Mike showed me this brighter/darker blue that he thought worked better and I agreed the contrast worked much better.Hi, BB.

Very, very nice.Mine is what Mike calls a bright navy blue. I initially wanted a French or Grey blue but Mike showed me this brighter/darker blue that he thought worked better and I agreed the contrast worked much better.
I think mine is the French Blue, but I’m not sure.Hi, BB. On my screen both your and Jonesy's ribbons look blue, which is a color I like for a Panama. Are they blue or black?
