Uh...there was a hat? Good looking hat. Anxiously awaiting my "Penman".

Anxiously awaiting the pics of your Penman!
Here's some shots from the hat that I made for Portland fashion week

It will be pics of the hat ONLY...if John sees what's wearing it, he might want it back!!!
John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather.
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - $395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks.
Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style. 
Still super excited, so I had to sign on and give a huge thanks and a thumbs up to John Penman. I relocated from VT to Portland and the first thing I did upon moving out to OR was walk into John's shop and order a Penman in moss green. I had high hopes based on the hats in his shop and every post on here, but I was still blown away when I picked my hat up last Friday! Not only is this hat is amazing, but John really made the experience by taking the time to show me all the steps involved in the process, which only adds to the "I hope I own this forever" factor. I broke it out today in downtown Portland and hopped on the vintage streetcar the city brings out during the holidays. The conductor asked me if he could take a look at the hat and was quite impressed with this "Penman fellow [who] he might have to check out..."
Thanks again John, and to everyone who is thinking of purchasing a Penman, go ahead and take the plunge, it is worth it!

Well, I tried to rotate the picture, but the iPad is not cooperating.
