My son got his new Akubra Cattleman in sand. The box, and the hat, were somewhat crushed, but a little steam has it looking pretty good now. We took the hat to our closest hatter and had the brim trimmed by about a half an inch.

Outrageous hats gentlemen!

Alex - that furry Stetson is rather cool. Do you have any more pics?

Obviously this picture isn't different, just bigger. And thanks to DOUGLAS for this hat!

Stetson Playboy

The other day I was watching Douglas posting some really nice hats in the Classifieds - none of which were my size.

Then to my surprise, I say he was selling a really nice green Playboy - in 71/8 too! Needless to say, I jumped at the chance to get hold of it and here it is; my very first Stetson!

The Playboy is in super condition and I really like the lightweight soft felt - it feels very much like my vintage Silver Borsalino.

Needless to say, I'm very happy with my new hat - thanks Douglas!

Nice job!

What's your method for brim trimming?

Well, this is the first hat I have needed to trim, so as I said, my method this time was to drive to a hat shop and pay ten dollars to have it done. I think I would like to get some kind of inexpensive brim cutter of my own.

I need to get myself a few hatstands for taking photographs, but until then, these'll have to do.

Milan from Optimo, and oh god was it worth the wait! :cool:
