    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    Had me a "are you from Texas" from the cashier while in the Chicken Salad Chick in PTC GA this morning. I said no ma'am, I'm originally from Mississippi and the hat was from Philadelphia, but it did spend one of its lives in Texas. My twice rebuilt 7x CB rides on..

    Western, anyone?

    Here's the sweat once I broke the hat Down. Tried to save the sweat, but the threads were dry rotted. when I tried to sew it back in, threads holding the leather to the backing would pop. It was very brittle. So, went with new sweat. Put the stickers back in, too.

    5 seconds............which hat ?

    I'd grab my Stetson 100 that I keep in its leather Stetson 100 case when I'm not wearing it. That way, I'd have my keeper hat and the case to boot.

    The Official Stetson Nutria Quality Thread

    I've been wanting a campaign hat, and passed several up. I couldn't pass this one with a great BIN price. I have my father's old First SGT pin that will fill the grommet on the front of the hat nicely. It'll be fun to wear it when it gets here.

    The Official Stetson Nutria Quality Thread

    After trying a Montana peak, a Carlsbad, a cattleman, after a time with it and the tea kettle, it decided it wanted this. The hat will usually tell you what it wants. Put the kettle to the brim and it just started rolling up , so I went with it!

    The Conversion Corral

    Always wanted a very light sand color fedora with a brown ribbon. Got this 3X beaver with 3-1/4" brim with a stain on the edge. Decided to turn it into my light sand fedora.
