Bolt -- that Western looks great. Totally different look -- totally cool look.

Cheers,

Here's that White Wool that I brought home along with the Western. It has a Black Pug on it that I think I'll replace with some nice 1" Black Grosgrain that I acquired from JT. :D I think it'll look much better than this, don't you agree?

Following a quick steam and clean. I just went with a center dent and a front pinch.

Yeah, I figured I needed a thin ribbon to go to the Truman home. They have his OR hanging on the hook with his coats where he kept it. You can walk right up to it and look at it, although I think they may have gotten touchy if I'd picked it up. He liked a tight pinch!

Alan, Did you get any photos?

Sweet Churchill Alan... I kinda like the loose pinch on this one!!!
Alucard73 Akubras are fantastic!!! 'Nuff said'!!!
Nice hat mcarthur, I can tell you like a feather!
Looks great Bolt! Have you thought about a thinner ribbon for it?? Maybe a 3\8s????
Great hat Alucard73, I really like the colors on that one! You are right about the wife by the way!!!
WOW!!! Another great akubra! gtcaz I believe that is the first Wentworth I have seen. Whats the brim on this one??

As a matter of fact I did Russ.
I'm definitely losing the Pugree. Like I said, I have a black 1" grosgrain.
I may have some in 3/8", I have to check the colors though. [huh]

I'm seeing some really nice hats lately, gentlemen.

I like the Churchill, Alan, and how appropriate.
Bolt, the white looks good, and those brims seem to be getting wider.
That rust Optimo is pretty killer, mcarthur.
Alucard, no wonder your wife can't resist that VS. I'm still waiting.
gtcaz, you're going to love that Akubra. I have two and want one or two more.
JtL, excellent, as always. The green is very nice and with a wide binding too.

Very nice, everyone.

Wearing my Adam Royal just received from Johnnyphi. This is my first thin ribbon and I like it more than I thought I would.

Another nice looking hat, Alucard. I have a thin ribbon Royal myself and I like the look of it a bunch. And it's very light and unlined. It was the only felt I wore for a while there as the weather here was just too warm for most felts.

If you haven't already, I would stongly suggest that you moisturize the sweatband before you wear it much. I've had a bit of trouble with mine because it didn't treat it.
