Justin, I admit to being a bit confused. I could swear that you joined the military! How is it, then, that you have the luxury of amassing a collection of fine vintage hats?

You are a Soldier of (Good) Fortune, perhaps?

Justin, Another great find with the 1930s/40s Stetson "Stetsonian"! I really like the color combos, finish and form.

Well it is only a 70's OR 4X, but this is in the post

Richard

Nice Richard! Looks like in great shape.

Looks great Ingineer! I think the crowns are a lot lower on the current ones, yours looks like the taller "proper" height

Early 50s Borsalino

Recent acquisition. I have a similar colored Borsalino but this one was more of the style I like with a higher crown and wider ribbon. I guess the OPS tag dates it to the early 50s. The hat is in pristine condition, never worn. Depending on the light the color shows more blue or green.

Very nice Stetson Justin.

Fantastic find! I really like the color and form. Also finding one of this age in NOS condition is extremely rare.

Purplesage that Borsalino is stunning! Great find

That is an absolutely beautiful Borso, David!

 

[alanfgag]

It's a very nice one. I looked long and hard at it. Worth every penny.

 

[bowlerman]

Wow, that is very pretty.

I received these beauties on Saturday from the Hattery. I waited to post them until I shaped the Fed IV.



This is my fourth Fed and second Capricorn. Since it's still in the 70's I've only had a chance to wear the Capricorn. But this weekend is supposed to be in the 60's, so the Fed will be getting its chance then.

Wow, wow, WOW! Hard to keep up around here. I feel like a piker following your Borsalino, David. Nonetheless, my new find for the end of the season, a 1970-ish Stetson Milan. It has a 2-1/8" dimensional brim, 4" front and 3-3/4" rear crown height.

I take some comfort having this lid in anticipation of next spring/summer. Especially good feeling now, during these Ten Days of Awe!

New today...this one is a gift for my brother-in-law... Bone 100% Beaver felt with pecan vintage ribbon. I tried the fringe treatment on the bow.

 

[splintercellsz]

Thank you for the kind words on the Stetson. It's my first Stetsonian, and I can't stop wearing it!

Richard, great OR!

David, that is one sweet hat!

Mc, they both look great!

Charlie, another winner of a find!

Honey, turned out Grand!
