Calling Stetson Historians! 50s 100, 3X, and 5X.
Candidly; there are many here with a greater knowledge and experience with Stetson hats. I think your question went unanswered as long as it did because so many ‘newbs’ appear here with a recent find or inheritance and seek only valuation of their hats and offer nothing as members. Welcome to... -
Calling Stetson Historians! 50s 100, 3X, and 5X.
You're welcome. My hats change way more often than my dress does. Standard uniform for me is a western shirt and jeans with cowboy boots. The 5X fits right in with this. It is a beautiful hat and I think the same of mine. Maybe the earlier hats were of a superior quality but the most... -
Calling Stetson Historians! 50s 100, 3X, and 5X.
Great group of hats that are covered by numerous threads around here with the exception of the 5X. I'm no historian but I have an example of all the hats you posted with multiple examples of the 3X. All of your hats, because of general shape and dimensions would be considered Open Road clones... -

Akubra Sombrero : Remplacement hat bands? | The Fedora Lounge There are several threads discussing the same thing. -
Cowboy Boots
What HJ said along with the lack of flex in Caiman because it’s the boniest hide of all the reptiles used in boot making. Also, Caiman doesn’t take as well to the tanning and dyeing process in the same fashion as alligator and crocodile. Probably why there’s no color saturation in those seams...- Bamaboots

ID this Hat
Well, the obvious answer is yes but since I'm not the smart ass that one here is, you're lucky that I answered. Are you looking for that exact cap? It's a common wool flat cap or maybe a Boston Scally but if you're looking for that particular pattern, you may have difficulty finding that. Etsy... -
Hats on TV
Big fan of the show, Perry and I've wondered about the hat myself. I haven't found anything online outside of other discussions about what it may be. With the bound brim and the blocking I think OR/clone with a leather band is a safe bet. -
POTUS shoe
Not like a thread around here to ever veer off track but maybe this will head it back, somewhat. A lot of Presidents wore cowboy boots and many more were gifted them while in office. And why wouldn't they? It's a truly American form of footwear. Presidential Boots | Tony Lama Boots Made by TL...- Bamaboots

Rollable Panama
Not. Wear it, lap storage, under seat or overhead compartment. -

You’re spot on. Plastic liner tip protectors were introduced around 1953 or so. -

Looking for info on this vintage Resistol hat
I have limited knowledge of Resistol's, so take this with a grain of salt. I figured one of the experts would have chimed in by now. I think you're probably close in your estimation of age, maybe into the 70's. It's definitely a western/cowboy hat. The brim appears to be over 3' and it's creased... -

Ask a question, get an answer
Yep, and a quick search will show you that the Knox 25 has only been mentioned around here a couple of times. That's rarefied air. -

The Open Road Guild
You're absolutely right and it is a nice hat. I have several that are very similar, just older. Also, yours appears to be a unique gray as opposed to the more common SB that mine are. That's just one of the things that makes your hat unique. The other is the three ply ribbon. That's very...
