    Stetson Hat

    I'm a little slow on the uptake here, it took me forever to get all the drool off my keyboard before I could post a reply in this thread. That is one DAMN FINE looking lid there, if I may say so! The colors are beautiful; I don't think I've seen a Whippet yet (during my rather short foray into...

    my newest hat Heres my new-to-me Dobbs. Snap brim, no idea how old it is; the sweat is NOT real leather, so it can't be THAT old. However, it's comfortable, the felt feels nice, and the wife likes it:) That always helps. Think I'm gonna switchout the braid for a 1.5" ribbon, though...

    First vintage hat post... ... so be gentle:) This is a 8X Stetson cowboy that I found in an antique shop for $5. It belonged to a (I assume) rancher named Allen Tysdale who had his name embossed on the sweatband, and had not been kept up over the years; it was a work hat. The liner had been...

    Recommend me a fedora, please

    I could be wrong, but I think you'll find more vintage afficionados here. That requires a pretty keen eye and quick mouse hand on eBay, or some good horse-trading on the side. New hats.... I can't really speak to that, as the only new one I have currently is a cheap Bailey's. Akubra...

    :offtopic: Not yet, Indycop; they aren't mandatory 'til October 2011. They're expensive as hell, too, so I'm going to bide my time. Maybe I'll get deployed again and get them issued:D Besides, I like my greens. They're comfy, broken in, take the iron well, and I don't look like a strip of...
