@Hurricane Jack Thanks for the reply Jack! I also noticed from the pictures of mine that the brim seemed like a lighter weight than your average western.
Thanks again
Latigo
@Bob Roberts Thanks Bob! I think of the color as a "Whisky" brown sort of reddish...
@Hurricane Jack Hi Jack! Since you have the hat...what is your take on it?
Latigo
@BobHufford Thanks Bob! I really like the color of yours too! I'm really into earth tones. $20.00! And I thought I was doing good....
I can't wait to get it to see what kind of quality it is. I do know it's going to need some work. This picture shows the sweat and you can see that the sweat...
Couldn't pass it up, I love the color and I think it's a good buy. I paid a C-note delivered. Can't wait to get it. The photos are ebay. Thought I would run it by you folks and see what you think. Also hoping for information as to how old it might be, It's a Beaver Brand. Diamond in the...
@AlexTheApache Classic Black Hat for sure! Maybe we better keep quiet about how nice American Hat Co. hats really are...:)
@Michael R. Nice to see you Michael! You know you do look like your avatar! BTW Nice deck and hat and you do look like you're relaxing....
Latigo
@BobHufford Yes, it's a 3x, got to be the same hat! Nice transformation you did on yours too!
@Joao Encarnado Your right and I think these pictures really show the changes with different lighting..
@AlexTheApache I love American Hat Company too. It's my favorite, though most of them are...
@AlexTheApache Snow in Texas?!! Nice!
Well Gents after reading the Teardrop Workshop..

I thought I would try it myself. The infamous brownish green hat being the one to try it on.
The first picture is the one from ebay when I...
@Joao You're right, they look a whole shade different from each other in that one picture. Different lighting, cameras, angles, monitors, if a flash was used it's endless!
All we can do is be careful and ask if we aren't sure. But you know sometimes it's a pleasant surprise when we see them in...
Very nice! I've been playing guitar for a few years just as a hobby. I'm getting to the point of really learning my way around the fret board, where I don't have to think about it too much, just try to play what's in my head and play mostly finger picking style. I have a few guitars, Alvarez...
@Stringmaster Those are some pretty nice ties and I like the musical theme too. I take it from your handle you play stringed instruments? Banjo, Guitar? I'm betting you're in a band or have your own?
Latgio
OK gents, lest you might think that old Latigo is suffering a case of buyers remorse or...worse...stupidity... Let me say that for the money I paid for both hats was quite a deal. The brownish forest green is really kind of different in changing light, it's brown in the sunlight and in the shade...
Thanks Joao! Great info on the color and code. Now I know what to look for. I have made mistakes in the past with the photos on ebay, the last hat before this one looked light brown in all the photos and turned out to be brownish forest green! Live and learn to ask the seller.......

My Latest ebay find arrived today: Resistol Las Vegas 4x Beaver in Granite. Needs a good brushing and cleaning. I've been looking for a nice grey. I really like all the earth tones. This one does seem to have a touch of blue tint to it. Oh well. just have to keep looking for that perfect...
Some very nice hats posted gents! Been away for awhile and last I remember we were talking about crown heights and brim widths. It occurs to me that without a reference as to the curl of the brim I can't get the jest of it right as to what brim width you gents really like. For instance here's a...
Here's something different and I kind of like them, but I don't know if they would look right UNLESS you were on horseback. I do think they are a style unto themselves.
What do you think?
Hats of the Great Basin Cowboys - know to other cowboys as "Flat Hats"
Hope the link works...
Hello Michael R. I see by your avatar that you have an interest in western and if you know your way around a saddle you know what a Latigo is. I chose this user name hoping to get the western fans to cowboy up and confess to the western style as this forum is not called the Fedora Lounge for...
