    Post New Hats Here!

    JB, That is beautiful. I wish I could find one of those in my size.

    Panama Hat Thread

    Greg, That is incredible. It looks like it is wafer thin. I'd be interested in knowing the wpsi too. If you can even see the knots to count them!

    The Resistol Roundup

    I've got a Resistol Saddler that is a xDoublex and it is definitely not wool either. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of it but it is very nice fur felt hat.

    I mean't to say it was combined with the Panama Hat thread. Sorry.

    I think it might have been combined with this thread.

    The Resistol Roundup

    KC, You are probably right about Ike being in a Resistol. He was not only born in Texas but he spent a lot of time here in San Antonio at Fort Sam Houston. He was a member at the San Antonio Country Club where he played golf.

    Annie Oakleys Stetson up for auction

    Very cool hat. I love the sweatband in it.

    Akubra Overload

    I definitely got that impression from the pictures! You make a fine hat too. To be honest, I don't wear straws much either, not because I'm tough, I just prefer the feel of a felt hat. What would you consider the best Akubra felt for wearing in hot weather?

    Akubra Overload

    This may have already been asked and answered but I can't find it doing a search. If it has I apologize for asking again. I have a book on Akubra hats and it has a lot of pictures of Australians wearing their Akubras. I noticed that they wear felt hats year around including the hottest part...

    Matt, that turned out great. I always wondered if that could be done to an Optimo.

    The Resistol Roundup

    "Well, the good guys are in the silverbellys..." KC, you are right about that. Even today they still are. The Texas Department of Public Safety issues Silverbelly Resistols to the Highway Patrol and the Texas Rangers. However, the Texas Rangers are allowed to wear any western hat they want as...

    The Resistol Roundup

    KC, Unfortunately it is too small for me or I'd buy it from you. I wear a 3/8 to 1/2. I guarantee you most of those hats the police and Texas Rangers are wearing in the Oswald picture are Resistols. Back then Stetsons weren't made in Texas but Resistols were. They were made in Garland just...

    The Resistol Roundup

    KC, they all look great but that Dalworth really stands out to me. I love silverbellys.

    Stetson Open Road Panama Straw.

    Doug, I have one of those too and love it. I actually have several Sunbody hats and they are great because you can shape them yourself. The one in Rick's picture looks like a tighter weave though. Looks like a nice hat.

    Stetson Open Road Panama Straw.

    Rick, Is the Guatemalan OR you posted below the Panama for sale somewhere?

    Stetson Open Road Panama Straw.

    They have always had the picture with the black ribbon. When I got mine the picture was black but the hat had a tan ribbon. I like the tan better too. Probably the best thing to do is call first to see what color they have now.

    Stetson Open Road Panama Straw.

    I have never seen a Panama with a cattleman's crease. That is a great looking hat. I should say a true, tight weave Panama.

    FS: Stetson Royal De Luxe Open Open Road 7 1/4

    I purchased several hats in a package deal recently and the hat below is too small for me. I wear a 7 3/8 long oval. The size tags have all been removed from the hat but I guessing by the way it fits me it is a 7 1/4. There is also "14" written on the back of the sweatband. The opening measures...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Very good point Scotty, I have a question on another totally different topic. I have seen some Resistols and Stetsons that have a hole punched in the sweatband. It is a larger hole like done with a paper punch for putting paper in a binder. Does this hole mean anything? I was thinking maybe...
