It looks like a great hat! The bash looks like either Crusade or Temple. Which one did you ask for?

It's a CS hat. When I get it I will have to work the pinch a little bit. The bash will probably come out during shipping anyways.

Ah, I see. To me, the crown looks short in proportion to the width. How tall is the crown?

I can't find all of the e-mails to and from Marc right now where we talked specs. So I will measure when it arrives. I did request however that the brim be slightly wider than the normal CS hat.

I GOT IT I GOT IT I GOT IT I GOT IT I GOT IT I GOT IT I GOT IT I GOT IT!!!!!
I don't have the time to go into much detail right now but let me just say this: THIS HAT IS A BEAUT!!! ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!
The first thing I did when taking it out of the box was inspect every inch of it. The felt is second to none. It is by far the softest and smoothest felt I have ever felt (pun intended). Fixing up the bash was remarkably easy... that just shows how soft the felt is. I love it! And the sweatband,... the sweatband!!!! I can't believe it's leather... it's so soft! When I put it on not only was the fit SPOT on but I didn't even feel the hat on my head! That's when you know that the hat is perfect in every way!
Thank you so very much Marc and Stefan!!! You can be assured this hat will get worn... and worn A LOT!

It looks terrific! The felt just looks so smooth. And like it's been said many times, women look great in fedoras.

I will not hesitate to order more hats from them in the future (I even have a hat on order from BOTH of them!). Sounds like you, sir, are addicted to buying Indy hats. Steven

Not just Indy hats. My next Penman won't be an Indy hat and my 3rd Penman isn't an Indy hat. I really don't see a need for any more Indy hats.

I agree with John! ;D She totally pulls it off. You should get her her own custom hat.

You should get her her own custom hat. And so the addiction grows... ;D Steven

Get her own custom hat??? Actually- if things weren't so hectic here today (sorry John) I would have given him a call about that! She's thinking something along the lines of a Sahara fedora....

Just over 6 years later and a TON of wear- this hat looks almost the same as the day I got it! I don't understand it- I've worn the heck out of this thing! And it STILL looks brand new!!!

Do you or did you put anything on it to protect the hat from water?

Nope! I kept it just how Marc gave it to me. No additional treatments of any kind!
