Just finished this one. Well, almost... the liner and the little bow tie is missing yet, but other than that it's done.

Vintage grosgrain ribbon, non dim. cut and a "shieldish" crease on the top.

Again, please apology the (missing) quality of the digicam.

Thanks to G-Mann for hosting.

Honest opinions are welcome as always.

Regards,

Looks like my old J. C. Penny 'Marathon' fedora from the late 50's.

I like it almost as much as my Aviator (which I must tell you gets better and better each time I wear it).

Keep up the great work!

though its not the style of hat that i prefer, i really like the profile from the side view.....the way it makes a lazy 's' on the top because of the shield crown.

i personally think the crown is way too low for my style but i'm interested to see this shield crown in a 4 1/2" crown height with the bash in it.

Marc, that is the deepest diamond crease I have ever seen, and boy have I seen 'em!!
