jimmy the lid said:Nice hatting safari, Bolt -- I see you bagged a Lion... Man, I love that hat. Could you post a close-up of what's going on with the ribbon on the left side of the hat? It almost looks like the button on the ribbon is connected to a wind-string -- or am I seeing things?
Fantastic lid -- tell us all about it when you get a chance. :eusa_clap

Jimmy, you're right....there's a trolley on it, but for some unknown reason they have the button attached to the ribbon.

bolthead said:I have to try and get that clip out and let the button sit where it should, naturally. I think it looks silly the way it is. :eusa_doh:
I agree. That crown shape works really well on you. I tho't your Stylemaster looked good on you but your new Fed IV works even better.Jauntyone said:Great bash, rrog! It really gives the crown that "stove-pipe" look that vintage hats have.
