Thanks once more to all of you who offered your best wishes upon hearing I was laid up in hospital with a herniated disc in my back.
I’m up and about and back at work now. No pain in the back, but still issues with the nerves running down my right leg. I have a bit of tightness and pain in my right calf, and the sole of my right foot is still quite numb and it makes me tired easily.
I got home to a new hat waiting for me. I’ve long wanted a Resistol dress fedora, so was excited to find this one advertised as size 59. It has some issues, which I suspected from the seller’s photos, but I love this Kitten Finish Beaver 15. Unfortunately it is not a size 59, and since it arrived while I was in hospital, I gave the seller a good rating without having tried the hat on, so I can’t send it back.
As I say, it has some issues, and I don’t know what size it is (I suspect 56 or 57), but if anyone wants it, drop me a line and see if we can’t work something out.
I measure the opening about 19.7cm by 15.5cm or so.

Ahh... that's too bad - I've been looking for one like this in a 59 also. Very cool hat - sorry it doesn't fit.

I like the Mayser Spezial homburg the most.
Wow, both of these Barbisio’s are amazing!!!
A splendid array, as always, Stefan. I'm going with the Panizza as #1, the Barbisio Titan as #2, and the Barbisio Muschio as #3. Thank you, as always, and travel safely!

That Stetson strikes the perfect balance between Western heritage and urban refinement. The subtle crease gives it a proud, structured silhouette, while the brim keeps it aesthetically sleek. It possesses an effortless, grounded dignity, sophisticated enough for the city, but born from the open road.
Enjoy Sardinia Stefan.
Thank you, gentlemen. Much appreciated.

Glad to hear you are back on your feet Gary. Too bad on the size of the Resistol. They are great hats

Glad to hear you're back home and on the mend, Gary. Sorry for the lingering issues; hopefully they will resolve soon. Prayers continuing for all of that. And my sympathies for the hat being SO CLOSE, only to turn out to be a disappointment.
