Unfortunately, this beautiful Stetson does not fit me. It's a touch too tight, I'm 7 1/4. Rather than scrap the sweatband by sizing it up, I wanted to keep it original and offer it up for sale.
The coloring on this hat is very nice, I would call it sage grey with natural goldish-brown...
Stetson 3X Beaver Quality
Yep! Just arrived today. I was searching for a general Stetson thread, but everything is geared toward Strats and thin ribbons, which this is technically a TAR, but I was interested in the general thread...

Dobbs Panama - Ribbon

Tadaaa...
The pug was soiled, and I didn't like that particular contrast. The tomato color made the straw look too yellow in person. You might not recognize the [new] ribbon, but that's the one I took off of my brown Dobbs Seven...
Again, thank you for the high praises, TJ. There is the desire to DIY for financial benefit (in several ways) and the desire to DIY for challenge + pleasure. My desire is a result of both. I am very inspired by so many awesome and beautiful hats on the 'Lounge, especially those worn by some...
Thanks, TJ. Your Knox Fifteen is a knockout!! You did a great job. :thumb:
Many thanks, Joao!!
Cheers to you! Your puller downer was a big help with the conversion!! :yo: :)
This is a high honor, and I am humbled to receive a compliment like that. The hat photographs very well...
Here is a very lovely Dobbs Panama that I picked up from Etsy a few months back. I believe it is a victim of dry heat. The straw has started to crack along the crease and the sweatband is showing tell-tale signs of dryness. It's such a beautiful hat with a really nice weave, but I'm a little...
'Preciate the comments, guys! :) I had started the ribbon about a year ago, so it was naked and it just sat and collected dust. I kept trying it on to see if I still wanted the hat. Finally, I decided to keep the hat and change out the ribbon. I didn't like the brim snapped down, so I put it...
Dude! Your FIRST bottle of scotch is Laphroaig??? That could put your d*ck in the dirt if you're not careful! :eusa_clap Bravo for throwing it down!! Great combo, Jeff. That is a wonderful hat; I know it's a sage color, but in the pic it looks about as smoky as that dram tastes! :) I'm...
Vacation Cruise - Part 2

The bigger treat was the featured band that played in the main lounge, Chicago!! It was FABULOUS!!! It was a small venue, so the sound was really in your face, but not too much. The mix was done really well. The band was so tight and on-point with each...
Vacation Cruise - Part 1
I went on vacation recently with my family, a cruise to Key West and Cozumel. My wife's parents, brother (his family), and sister (her family) also went. It was a swell time. I get along with my in-laws, so I enjoyed it. We embarked out of Miami, FL with cloudy...
A very minor conversion, but I replaced the 2 1/4" dark grey/brown ribbon on my Dobbs Seven Fifty with a new 1 1/2" plum ribbon. I'm a big fan of how Cavanagh would fray the edge of the peek-a-boo ribbon ends. I was never happy with the way it looked. Overall, the new ribbon adds greater...
Seriously, people. This is a beautiful hat in a large size for a great price! I'm surprised this didn't go the first day you posted it.
