Is there a site out there that will give you some rules as to how and what shape of hat one should wear in proportion to their height and weight?
Maybe some forumites may have such information available?
Great thread.Thanks and thanks to all for the info posted.
I will look for a vintage one on ebay. I have seen them in $40-$50.00
range.
Is that a fair price?
Is anyone here with an extra one to sell size 67/8 or 7 silver belly preferred?
What are the main characteristics of the open road. must it have a certain hight or length of brim? What about the shape of the crown?
Are there many knock-offs?
[I think the Campdraft is the closest new hat you will get to the Open Road of old. What I mean by that is that it is open crowned, and you could put the cattlemans or fedora crease in it yourself.
At one time Akubra made the Open Road hat for Stetson.
I did not know Stetson contracted out...
Hi All:
I am fairly new to the forum, but not to wearing hats. I have a small collection(9) that I rotate during the fall winter and spring. I am looking to add an "Open Road". I just don't know how it should be worn. Is is strictly a western/cowboy hat? If not, when and where can I wear it...
