Thanks, I've got 7 or 8 Stetsons but this is the only one with this type of tag. I had not seen it before or maybe had seen it on the lounge and didn't pay any attention to it. This thread was a good idea to make me more aware of another aspect of vintage hats. You would think Stetson would...
Stetson 3X beaver quality I've had for little while. Clean, block and ribbon project put on hold. 339 block on sticker. It's the only sticker on the hat. Not a regular or standard Stetson re-order sticker. Could it be a re-order sticker from a previous clean & re-block by a private hat...
Pedigree "The Airie" that I recently picked up for hot humid Florida days with the regular afternoon showers. Love Milans in the summer. but, I am quickly getting spoiled by this hat. 2.5 oz.

Hi Justin, Glad I was able to pop in today and catch this thread.

Enthusiasm, sense of honor, responsibility, thirst for knowledge...
Ok, lets see if I remember how to get a photo on here.....

Got a couple more photos for another thread perhaps. Any clue as to the date?
I was going to inquire about the proper hat etiquette concerning wearing boxers, briefs or just letting 'freedom ring' when wearing a hat.
But, now I just don't want to know what base animal instinct wearing underwear with a hat represents. :hand:
That's just way more hat information...
Hey Eric, I have been out of commission a couple of months myself. Didn't know of your misfortune until now.
Good to hear you are healing quickly. Great looking pair of VSs.....
A vintage cane might be a nice touch.
Ft. Benning in August ......I was inducted 22 Aug 68.....Basic, Sand Hill....Ft. Benning....HOT AS H_LL!! Hopefully the Army will have installed some air-conditioning by now.
Hey, Justin...Thanks for asking. I'm still getting used to living with some new limitations.
Leave a comment on the lounge when you switch hats. Got any orders or indication of where you'll be doing Basic Training or whatever the new name for it might be?
If I don't catch you before...
I picked up my first derby a couple of months back. A black Stetson 'Featherweight' with vent holes and tip sticker, taped sweat.
Looks like the block number is one I didn't see on the list. 292 block, 5 depth written in blue ink on the label.
If I can find my camera I'll try to get some...
Hi Guys,
Haven't been around here but a couple of times since last year. Sorta out of commission since last year.
Whenever I put my two cents in....it usually gets thrown back at me...But....
In the time I have been on the lounge Jared (JLee) has always been nothing but polite, helpful...
Hey Justin,
I don't get here much any more but, did want to wish you good luck on your new adventure.
I was 11E20 (Armor crewman) quite a while back. After a run through the jungle went to Ft. Benning in Georgia to familiarize OCS in Armor basics and support airborne/ranger school.
I'm...
