I just now noticed that my Stetson Saxon has a center bash, and my Panama Bob Diamante has what I think is the teardrop. Dont know how I did not notice that the Saxon was a center bash, and in other pics, I did not care for it as much as some of the others. Would it be hard to redo it or just...
I am trying to find out the differences in the various lines of fur that Stetson has that I see when viewing hats. I have a Saxon and it is said that it is made from the Royal Line. I know Stetson rates some newer hats by the X mark, and I am guessing 3 x is akin to say the Akubra line (not...
That's sort what I am thinking. I am a newbie, and have one Panama Bob panama hat, and then a new Stetson Saxon. My Akubra Stylemaster should be here later this week, maybe in a week. After that, I may play around on here or ebay looking for a cheaper, vintage hat, but once I decide what I...
Love the Barton a lot, and good luck on that Resistol. Heck maybe down the road, Id do what High Pockets did, or Ill try to find a vintage hat. As it is right now, gotta start wearing the one I have and the Stylemaster that should be here maybe Friday :)

I was good on the in-the-courtroom, but glad to know my feelings about restaraunts, etc., was right. What about meeting women you know outside, say heat of summer? Tip hat?
She likes the hats, but thinks that the Stetson needs to wait until November when it gets cold, say under 60, and the Panama, only out in the sun, and that I am wearing it too much, like a kid who gets a favorite football jersey and wants to wear it everyday.
Hat etiquette in specific instances
I have tried to find my way around the starter thread on hat ettiquette. I understand that no hat in a home, hotel room, or apartment building and the elevators as well. But I have some instances I would like comments on:
1) A public restaraunt, and not...
Tonight, I had on the pants to a blue pin striped suit, no coat, white shirt, red tie, black shoes and in 85 degree weather at 6:45, took out my Stetson Saxon Caribou grey felt hat for its first spin. Immediately upon walking into the restaraunt with my wife, the greeter, a man of about 20 to...
I say go for it. Tonight, I had on the pants to a blue pin striped suit, no coat, white shirt, red tie, black shoes and in 85 degree weather at 6:45, took out my Stetson Saxon Caribou grey felt hat for its first spin. Immediately upon walking into the restaraunt with my wife, the greeter, a...
My first post in this thread, but sorry, was only thinking of this when I got to work and had to use the cell phone for the pic
I really think that a felt hat would look better than a Panama
I found a third one - High Pocket's Resistol he had the brim cut down and then a new ribbon - like a creamy white or very, very light grey color. Looks sharp!
HP: Does that hat tend to get dirty? I am learning so much, and now you have piqued my interest. Taking a western hat and cutting off some brim, getting the edge bound and viola, a good ole fedora.
Now, is this sort of job best left to me after I have worn fedoras, maybe bought and sold...
Yup, a Stylemaster in Acorn, as moonstone is a bit too much like my Caribou, and I want to venture into a more casual hat. Although the threads on the Adams hats and just about anything Jimmy the Lid wears has me drooling.
Well, winters for the most part in Memphis are mild. Summers, now, that is a different story. I bought my first hat because I wanted something to cover my thin and thinning hair, and got a Stetson Saxon because wife, hatter and myself all thought it featured me the best of a couple dozen I...
