Wow, 2 hat day. The Tatton arrived this morning and later this afternoon the Stetson Medalist milan arrived from Brent. Thanks Brent it's a great little grab and go hat for a hot Texas day. Very minty too. I'm impressed. Right out of the box it had some Bogie / Spencer Tracy brim attitude. Gonna like this one. ;)
 
I like wonky once in awhile Bob..... feels damn good. ;)


Nice one, Bob. Did it always have a thin ribbon? The weave on the lower part of the crown seems to suggest it once had a pug or wider ribbon.

Thanks fellas. The ribbon has been on there as long as I've had it. It came from an auction with several other thin ribbons and was from a local small/rural town so ... probably original.

My 2 cents .... I see they claim it's 100% Paglia (= straw), but my guess is that it is made of Toyo straw or even more likely Shantung (paper straw).
I could be wrong, but you better not risk getting it wet :)

I only wear it at sunny days, so it won't getting wet. I also think it's Toyo straw. I don't think it's Shantung.
