cowboy hat

Hi everyone! I just got back from working the Deerfield Fair in New Hampshire USA. A good friend of mine custom fits cowboy hats, and oh, man is this a lot of fun! I thought I was just selling hats and cowboy boots, but really, this is something much more; you should see the joy as people get a...

I broke out my Peters Brothers hemp straw Indy hats today & it was a little wonky form storage so I went to the hardware store & I bought a 1/2 pint of clear shellac & som denatured alcohol as well as a small spray bottle. I mixed up 8 ounces of shellac to 4 ounces of alcohol & it seems to have...

Hey guys. I always thought this hat James Dean wore on the set of Giant was kind of crazy and cool. Anyone have any clue what it is? Or a modern equivalent? I did a quick search on the Lounge but didn’t see anything. Apologies if it’s already been talked about. Thanks!

I recently bought this hat thinking it was fur felt but immediately upon touching it it became apparent that it’s wool. The hat is free to whoever wants it: just pay shipping. It will cost $17 or less to anywhere in the contiguous US.

I've spent years traveling, the last five alone a couple of times per month between NY and Houston, but have never taken my hats...excepting, perhaps, one that I might have worn. What I've learned, if anything, is how to travel light and unencumbered. What do you guys do when you want to take...

After holding onto it for a couple months I’ve decided to let this go as it’s far too small for me. It’s on eBay, but I’ll make Lounge members a deal if they want it outside of eBay. eBay auction has starting price of $100. The details on the hat can be found in the eBay listing...

Am considering buying a stetson hat. Looking specifically at the Firenze, Pinnacle or maybe temple. I like the midsize brims, around 2 1/4 inch so probably Firenze. I wonder what the Firenze hat looks like, it is a silk finish. Is it shiny? Some pictures show shininess, others dont so much...

EDIT: Sold Howdy folks, for sale is my vintage Stetson "Bighorn" size 7 5/8. This is a 3x Stetson most likely from the 60's based on the stitched liner and box. Very soft felt. Please see pictures... IMG_5454 2 by Jesse John posted Jul 5, 2020 at 1:20 PM IMG_5463 2 by Jesse John posted Jul 5...

I'm a urban Texas guy but wear a cowboy hat almost every day. I tried them as an experiment for the first time about 5 years ago, purchasing inexpensive hats, one wool felt by Justin, one palm leaf (store brand, but almost certainly actually a Sunbody), each in the $50-$60 range. I'm about ready...

Hi.. I'm wondering if someone can help me out? I'm actually trying to help out a friend of mine whose son has recently passed away and she found this Stetson hat of his that he never wore. She's looking to now possibly sell it but has no idea how old it is and what it might be worth. Someone in...

Im not sure if its a Stetson Borsolino Selentino I was hoping this forum could help me find the hat im looking for.

If you haven't seen Longmire, you need to. It places 2nd next to my beloved Lonesome Dove. Here is my question for you: I just fell in love with his hat. Unfortunately I can not afford. It is custom made by O'Farrell Hat Company out of Santa Fe, NM. It is a RCA #30. Walt’s actual hat is our...

This seems to work on other sites, so I figure that it deserves a shot here. If you've got a quick hat question and don't see a thread for it, just post it here. Whether the question is about cleaning, anatomy of a hat, brands, etc., this is the place. Here's one to break the ice.

Hard to believe anything from 1998 is vintage. What does that make me? This hat is never worn, brand new condition. Tags are still in the lining. This is a rare find. A current Resistol 6X in this style is $200-$225. With the pristine condition, rarity and National Finals Rodeo connection, I am...
