Thanks Joe.
Nice, Steve! There’s something special about this old Hückel velours. I’m still looking for a seal velour in my size if you come across one
I'm on it Brent and have been for some time. I'd love to find one of these in your size for you.
That is certainly one to look forward to, Steve.

40s and 50s Resistol I think are pretty primo
I would have given $14 for that one, maybe even $15!
Great catch, Bob.

A bit blurry.. but I think we can make out some fino details
Looking forward to this one arriving. My first custom hat.
I didn't think my first custom would come from this maker, nor be in the style I evently chose. Though I decided to go against the "ususal" flow, I like and have a few hats in this style.
More to be revealed once the hat arrives.
For the record, Robert is a joy to work with.

I went to the Garland Outlet twice in the past two months and was disappointed. If you love cowboy hats, you have a good selection. But I hardly found anything in a 7 3/8 and what I did find was pretty cheap looking. But I have heard others have good success.

You don't see this combination often (the first I've seen anyway). Stetson No. 1 Quality with a Bon Ton Ivy sweatband.

Well, I bit the bullet on my first Panizza. Waiting for it to ship from the ebay seller now.
A very interesting and unusual find, Bob. Looking forward to seeing more of it once it arrives.

Thanks, Jim. I stretched my budget because I suspect this might be around 100 years old. Can't find a Knox label like this one on here.
I took it out of the freezer last night. Aside from being coated in a lot of dust it seems to be in good order. (That spot in the rear that looked possibly worn based on the seller's pic was just dust.) Hopefully I will get around to steaming, brushing, and taking some pics today.

Can't find much about this brand; picked it up from Etsy, same hat/seller was on Ebay for another $6 -- I'm guessing that's the fee charged by Ebay? Leather sweat band is stamped "genuine fur felt" . No paper size tag, and the seller measured the 'inside opening' so I'm taking a flyer on the size (fingers crossed). If it fits (I'm the oh so popular 7 3/8ths) I'm going to feel I really scored (it was cheap!). Looks to be in good shape. I'm guessing I got it only because the seller (who has excellent reviews) didn't put in the right search terms/descriptions, especially vis-a-vis size, and didn't have many pics. Anyone ever hear of Warwick, know anything about them (USA? Years active?) Seller called the color tan.
