| | | Can a brotha with a big head get a balmoral?
I need suggestions on a site from which I can order a balmoral, size 8. Googling "balmoral hat," "balmoral hat size 8" and "balmoral hat 64" was surprisingly unproductive.
Thanks in advance!

If you go to eBay and type subject words into the browser you will get results.
Look under "Kilts, Mens' accessories, clothing items", click on "all categories" search, and you will find them there. Most of them not too badly priced either.
A little creative browsing in eBay is worth the time.

Do not forget that you can get a custom made Balmoral by our own Diane at Russel Lodge
Great knitter, great hats, great person, just be careful of her new husband he wears skirts. Hold so do I, therefore her husband is one fine fellow.

Specifically here is the link to the ebay item you are looking for: http://cgi.ebay.com/BALMORAL-BONNET-...742.m153.l1262
Custom sizes, custom colors, custom pom choices, and handmade specifically to your order each time.
And they are nice folks to deal with.

I guess if you can't find the right size, you'll just have to get a smaller head.
