Have you tried wearing it open crown, almost like a bowler?

...or perhaps with a center dent but without side pinches.

 

[splintercellsz]

I will try that out when I am back home

Who knows Joao? YOu may have some famous signatures there. I would have no idea how to access a data base though. It would be nice if you could read the names at least.

I can take pictures of it and see if anyone on FL can help...

How wide is the brim on that one? I like that sombrero.

4 1/2". The Akubra with the widest brim.

I must be getting old, I accidently posted this in the Borsalino thread. Sorry about that, I deleted it. I found this Stetson Western style Nutria at Goodwill for $10.00. Felt was in perfect shape, very soft and pliable, not stiff like some western bodies. Liner pretty clean and shows the Nutria label. Too bad the sweatband was rotted out. I'm going to have to decide what to do with it as far as a conversion goes. I'm not a cowboy so no since trying to pretend by wearing this way.

Why can't I find a Nutria at that price... oh wait... there are none around here.
Hope you don't trim the brim. It's hard to find a Stetson Nutria with +3 1/2" brim...

How do you like the fit and feel of the Sombrero, Joao? It looks like a nice hat.

1930s Biltmore

The hat is black in color, the camera made it appear blue. Great condition. Very nice dimensions.

1910s/1920s Stetson

Grey. Lightweight. I love the liner logo.

 

[Some Random Bloke]

Nice. I like the Stetson.

1910s/1920s Lion

From what I believe, this is the only one to have surfaced. Came with some of the original owners information. Black in color, like the Biltmore.

Many thanks to Josh!
