Black in winter when it is cold. White or straw in summer. Temps hit 105F+ here on a regular basis. 115F is not unusual. Sunny here in the high desert, most days, no matter the season.
Was trying to mimic Crocodile Dundee there with the "that's not a knife scene". :)

Rodeo King's a Western hat, stiff and built to...
Just an FWI for anyone looking for a hat maker that is capable of making a BIG Western hat. Lisa from Top Knot Hats in SILVER LAKE, OR, built a solid 5.5" brim with a 6" crown for me on a Winchester 100% beaver blank. All on a size 7.5" hat block. Most hat makers will tell you it aint...

Kinda funny really. Silver lake Or is just under 300 miles from my place. Hat has already traveled, 405 + 1331 and it will take at least another 850 to get it here. 2586 miles so far and counting. I should have just driven over and picked it up!
I trust the USPS, just not the guys they...
New hats are like Christmas come early. I have one coming. 100% beaver. Left Silverlake Or on Friday. Ended up in Seattle over the weekend and is now in Denver. I'm in Boise. I don't have high hopes of seeing it any time soon.
I usually have great luck and a lot of faith in the post...
I always thought Custer's crew was pretty savvy to adopt those plantation hats. Would have just taken a few minutes to age JW's version in some water and a little dirt ;)
Great period photos! Thank you.
I do like a big straw ;)
Off topic some. I always liked JW. And for the most really like his signature movie hats. Although never enough to duplicate any of them. They are JW hats in my mind. Never going to be a hat shape/style I'd wear. But "The Searchers" is one of my least favorite movies even though it does...
Safari rifles? My Nephew was over this last weekend. Haven't pulled the guns out of the safe in a while.
