    How can you 'age' a hat? PLEASE Help....

    Check with Major Moore at Buckaroo Hatters. They have a way of adding sweat stains & trail dust/dirt to hats to make them look well-worn. Some of the hatters that do Indy hats also apply dirt to get the hats to look exactly like certain scenes in the movies....

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    You wear it well too. I have a 7X CB & a 100 of basically the same time period. As talked about before, I'd stand that they are the same felt blanks with the 100 just being finished out by 1 master hatter while the 7X CB was done on the assembly line. At the core, they are so close to one...
