Bob, I almost overlooked this question. I don't have much to compare it to. The other Imperial stetsons I have are homburg hats that were made under license by Failsworth in England. It does feel like has some sort of nap to it though. Very nice and pliable felt.Does the older "Imperial" have a different hand to it? My recent production "Imperial" has a suede like sort of feel.
Niiiiiiiice! The way that felt creases shows off the quality right away.
you got the eye brotherNiiiiiiiice! The way that felt creases shows off the quality right away.
But you got the hat!you got the eye brother
View attachment 82706 my new Stetson De-Luxe stratoliner. Literally bought it last week. It was worth the $245 I paid to have a Brand new hat with the quality and construction of a vintage one

Sent directly from my mind to yours.
That blue one is a work of art! Incredible.Two Cav edge fedoras I picked up yesterday afternoon, both 7 1/4:
blue late '40s/early '50s Saks-Fifth Avenue
grey '70s Brooks Brothers
Colors are most accurate in the view from the top of both hats.
+1 Yes it is indeed.That blue one is a work of art! Incredible.
Older Borsalino. More pics in the Borsalino Brotherhood.
Thank you Bob. I'm playing around with creases.I dig it Bob. Congrats!
+1A run of very nice lids gentlemen!
